[file_transfer.auto_accept]

enabled

If true, automatically accept incoming file transfers. Requires save_directory to be set.

# Type: boolean
# Values: true, false
# Default: false

[file_transfer.auto_accept]
enabled = false

nicks

If true, automatically accept incoming file transfers from these nicks. Note auto_accept has to be enabled.

# Type: array of strings
# Values: array of any strings
# Default: []

[file_transfer.auto_accept]
nicks = ["nick1", "nick2"]

masks

If true, automatically accept incoming file transfers from these nicks. Matches are made against the full nickname (i.e. nickname, username, and hostname in the format nickname!username@hostname). Note auto_accept has to be enabled.

Use toml multi-line literal strings '''\bfoo'd\b''' when writing a regex. This allows you to write write the regex without escaping. You can also use a literal string '\bfoo\b', but then you can't use ' inside the string.

Without literal strings, you'd have to write the above as "\\bfoo'd\\b"

# Type: array of strings
# Values: array of any strings
# Default: []

[file_transfer.auto_accept]
masks = [
    '''nick!ident@example\.com''',
    '''.*@foobar\.com'''
]
