An asynchronous Rust interface to Twitch chat

tmi-rs's Issues

Internal connection pool

If you want to connect to more than roughly 90-100 channels you need to create multiple separate connections, otherwise TMI will close the connection.
Note that there is no official documentation on this, it just seems to be from empirical evidence, for example from Chatterino users with a lot of tabs, bordering the 100 mark.

Is it feasible to support this kind of "sharding" internally as part of the library?

Configurable rate limiting

Implement configurable rate limiting (see https://github.com/pajbot/tmi-rate-limits) for the different scenarios where messages may be sent.

1. Bucket based rate limiting for:

• Non-privileged users
• Moderator/Broadcaster/VIP user
• Known Bot
• Verified Bot
• Custom Buckets

2. Per-channel limiter to respect global 1 second slow mode or current channel slowmode if applicable

Crates.io release

Currently blocked on:

• PR #9
• Tokio-Tungstenite 0.10.0 release on crates.io to remove the git dependency

Add convenience matchers for common event types

Add convenient match functions to filter for common event types like channel messages, whispers, timeouts, bans, etc.

Should be implemented in a way that allows for easy creation of user provided matchers that function identically.

Middleware/Filter support

Add a way to filter or modify messages in the send and receive pipelines. Could be used to implement a bypass for the 30s same-message filter on Twitch.

Reconnect

Is it possible to make this library automatically reconnect on failed connection?

Chore: Replace future-bus with tokio MPMC channel

now that tokio has a proper MPMC channel, replace future-bus (works, but probably not very efficient)

Properly unescape IRCv3 tag values

Unescape tag values according to https://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/message-tags after parsing
