Chan-Like Addon

A simple plugin which can be used to give Freechat a more chan-like experience where messages are not saved forever.

This is basically another chronjob script that will execute every few minutes or so, removing old content unles otherwise specified.

Options and what they do

• time-out [VALUE] : sets an expiration timer for messages (on the order of days)

Example : --time-out 30 messages older than 30 days will be deletede

• message-limit [VALUE] : sets the max number of messages allowed in each channel

Example : --message-limit 1000 after 1000 messages the oldest message will be removed to keep the amount of messages to around 1000.

NOTE : this creates a new process if --no-poll is specified

• --no-poll : Opt out of polling and listen for changes in the database
