Kotlin rewrite of WeatherBot, linking against dvdme's ForecastIO-Lib-Java for weather data and TheLQ's PircBotX for IRC capabilities. Provided under the MIT License.
Oh, and it works with Slack over their IRC gateway.
Edit the provided config.json file to fit your needs. If autoReconnectAttemps is -1, it will attempt to reconnect forever (up to Int.MAX_VALUE times, anyway). Setting it to zero disables automatic reconnection. The channels field is an array. The rest ought to be self-explanatory.
The config file needs to be in the same folder as the jar.
Use the Gradles
java -jar <name of jar file> <-IRC|-TS3|-BOTH>
That's it, at least to get minimally up and running. I would suggest you write a launch script that stores the PID of the executing JVM in a temporary file and a shutdown script so that you can send SIGTERM to the corresponding process so you can handle everything all clean-like. I would also HIGHLY suggest you redirect the screen output (which is just logging) to a file if you're running into trouble or to /dev/null if you don't care.
To stop WeatherBot, send SIGTERM to the appropriate process. (Determining this is up to you, for now. I will provide the script I use in the future.) It will shut down and part from all joined channels gracefully.

All of the following take one parameter, the location one wishes to see weather data for. If the user has already set their location with .setlocation this parameter is optional.
