How to connect to an invite channel?

[SuatNguyen]

Hi guys, I have the bot working in public servers. That's great. Now, I would like to move in a private server.

discord-irc@2.9.0 start
node dist/index.js "--config" "test.json"

2021-06-08T13:17:00.972Z info: Connected to Discord
2021-06-08T13:17:07.337Z info: Connected to IRC
2021-06-08T13:17:07.821Z error: Received error event from IRC {
prefix: 'server.net',
server: 'server.net',
command: 'err_unknowncommand',
rawCommand: '421',
commandType: 'error',
args: [ 'xxx', 'yyy', 'Unknown command' ]
}
2021-06-08T13:17:08.825Z error: Received error event from IRC {
prefix: 'server.net',
server: 'server.net',
command: 'err_inviteonlychan',
rawCommand: '473',
commandType: 'error',
args: [ 'xxx', '#channel', 'Cannot join channel (+i)' ]
}

Config is as follow

[{
"nickname": "xxx",
"server": "server.net",
"discordToken": "AAA",
"autoSendCommands": [ // Commands that will be sent on connect
["/msg xxx !invite xxx key #channel"]
],
"channelMapping": {
"#discord": "#channel"
},
"format": {
"discord": "{$withMentions}"
},
"parallelPingFix": true,
"commandCharacters": ["!", "."],
"ircStatusNotices": false
}]

In mIRC, I often use the following command to join the channel.
/msg xxx !invite xxx key #channel

How do I use the above command the your code?

Thanks!

If it's an invite only channel, maybe try

    "channelMapping": { // Maps each Discord-channel to an IRC-channel, used to direct messages to the correct place
      "#discord": "#irc channel-password", // Add channel keys after the channel name
    },

Followed by setting a permanent invitation for the bot in the channel directly. Sometimes executed by +I user!ident@host. This should tell the channel to always let the bot join, and the configuration will provide the password.
