Good morning.

I've written two bots that include web interfaces. They're both on SourceForge, although only one of them has released code.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/memephage
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pastebot

I'm betting that the pastebot project is the one you're interested in. Paradoxically, it's probably exactly like what you want and so totally different than what you expected as to be virtually useless for you.

Pastebot presents a web form where people can "paste" large blocks of text. When the form is submitted, it announces a URL to retrieve the text on an IRC channel. So far, so good.

Perhaps unfortunately, though, it implements both the IRC client and web server in the same program. This single-process solution avoids the need for inter-process communication. When the server sees a form submit, it immediately triggers the IRC client to announce the fact.
