# Formatting of socket
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
IRC is quite a hassle to understand, so the first thing to know about the protocol is the **socket** and **server/client**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
TLDR:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
↗️ PRIVMSG target :content
|
||
|
|
🔀 :nick!ident@host PRIVMSG target :content
|
||
|
|
^ Replace nick, ident, host, & target with the respective values described.
|
||
|
|
↗️ COMMAND arg :content
|
||
|
|
↙️ :server RPL nick data :content
|
||
|
|
^ Replace nick with the nickname of the current connection.
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> [!CAUTION]
|
||
|
|
> If the command has content, the colon MUST be included, and is at the beginning of the content, not the end of the command/args.
|
||
|
|
> ```
|
||
|
|
> ↗️ COMMAND: content
|
||
|
|
> ↙️ :server 421 nick COMMAND: :Unknown command
|
||
|
|
> ^ Replace nick with the nickname of the current connection.
|
||
|
|
> ```
|
