Prerequisites
In order to connect to Twitch IRC, you must have two pieces of information:
- The name of channel that you want to join.
- A Twitch account.
Once you have that information, you can then take it to connect to Twitch IRC with the following bits of information:
- The server name to connect to is: irc.twitch.tv.
- The port to connect to is 6667
- SSL is not supported for Twitch IRC.
- Your nickname must be your Twitch nickname
- Your password should be an OAuth token. You can get your oauth token here: www.twitchapps.com/tmi (Thanks Andrew Bashore!)
- An example "password" using this method would be "oauth:asdasd234asd234ad234asds23" without quotes.
