By default APE comes with a module that manages nicknames. This module might
interfere with whatever mechanism you plan to use. Look at
scripts/examples/nickname.js. Notice that it hooks into the CONNECT command.
If you want to remove this default behavior then uncomment it from
scripts/main.ape.js. You can also use this module for inspiration.
When the client calls client.core.start(params), the CONNECT hook receives
whatever is passed into the client.core.start() function. Let's say the call
is client.core.start({user: "bob", pass: "123"}), then inside your CONNECT
hook you can do something like the following:
Ape.registerHookCmd("connect", function(params, cmd) {
if params.user is valid && params.pass is valid {
return 1;
} else {
return ["001", "INVALID LOGIN"];
}
})
