<h2 id="telnet-bridge">Telnet Bridge</h2>
<p>The <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">telnet_bridge</code> module allows “bridged” Telnet connections from your board to other Telnet services (such as other BBSes!).</p>
<h2 id="configuration">Configuration</h2>
<h3 id="config-block">Config Block</h3>
<p>Available <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">config</code> entries:</p>
<ul>
<li><code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">host</code>: Hostname or IP address to connect to.</li>
<li><code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">port</code>: Port to connect to. Defaults to the standard Telnet port of <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">23</code>.</li>
<li><code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">font</code>: A SyncTERM style font. Useful for example if you would like to connect form a “DOS” style BBS to an Amiga. See <a href="/enigma-bbs/art/general.html">the general art documentation on SyncTERM Style Fonts</a>.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="example">Example</h3>
<p>Below is an example <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">menu.hjson</code> entry that would connect to <a href="https://xibalba.l33t.codes">Xibalba</a>:</p>
<pre><code class="language-hjson">{
telnetBridgeXibalba: {
desc: Xibalba BBS
module: telnet_bridge
config: {
host: xibalba.l33t.codes
port: 45510
}
}
}
</code></pre>
<h3 id="using-extra-args">Using Extra Args</h3>
<p>The <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">telnet_bridge</code> module can also accept standard <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">extraArgs</code> of the same configuration arguments described above. This can be illustrated with an example:</p>
<pre><code class="language-hjson">telnetBridgeMenu: {
desc: Telnet Bridge
art: telnet_bridge
config: {
font: cp437
}
form: {
0: {
mci: {
VM1: {
argName: selection
items: [
{
board: BLACK Flag
soft: Mystic
data: bf
}
{
board: Xibalba
soft: ENiGMA½
data: xib
}
]
// sort by 'board' fields above
sort: board
submit: true
}
}
submit: {
*: [
{
value: { "selection" : "bf" }
action: @menu:telnetBridgeFromExtraFlags
extraArgs: {
host: blackflag.acid.org
}
}
{
value: { "selection" : "xib" }
action: @menu:telnetBridgeFromExtraFlags
extraArgs: {
host: xibalba.l33t.codes
port: 44510
}
}
]
}
}
}
}
telnetBridgeFromExtraFlags: {
desc: Telnet Bridge
module: telnet_bridge
}
</code></pre>
<p>Here we’ve created a lightbar menu with custom items in which we’d use <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">itemFormat</code>’s with in a theme. When the user selects an item, the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">telnetBridgeFromExtraFlags</code> menu is instantiated using the supplied <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">extraArgs</code>.</p>
