Update: a wider rollout is starting today!
We’ll be moving as many as 200 partners to the new servers. Let us know if you have any trouble getting your bots connected!
Glad to see chat is finally getting SSL. Now add IPv6 (for chat AND the website)
Can you now say how long this will be a thing? Being in this two-cluster-state mess as short as possible is ideal.
I would also love a list of partners so that I can validate the actual chat files. My process will in theory transparently handle everything, but I would feel a lot more comfortable if I can actually hand verify the results.
Just tried connecting a bot through irc.chat.twitch.tv:6667. It isnt allowing the chat to roll through after doing /join #lapis_lauri. What would I need to change to fix this inside of my bot’s configuration?
Any answers appreciated!
Until a partner is moved to the AWS cluster you won’t see any chat on irc.chat.twitch.tv. After they move, they will show up on that connection, and no more chat goes to the old server (irc.twitch.tv)
Thanks for the quick reply! Figured that might have been the case but didnt want to rule it out for now. Thanks very much!
EDIT: After moving back to irc.twitch.tv:6667, I cant get chat back 
The idea is to ramp up exponentially, with larger numbers being added each day. After we’ve collected some data over the weekend, we’ll be able to speed things up even more.
Will we be disconnected when the server change is made?
My plan was whenever one of my bots get disconnected it would check the API http://tmi.twitch.tv/servers?channel= for if the server has changed to irc.chat.twitch.tv then connect to it.
You’ll receive a SERVERCHANGE message as detailed above, but you won’t be disconnected.

tyty! This list will be super helpful to validate everything is good <3
If you are moving a chat between clusters (and it’s done whilst the streamer is offline) would be be at some random point during offline or like say 20 minutes after a cast comes down?

When we process a channel, we check online state, and only process offline channels. This could happen soon after going offline or shortly before going live for an individual channel, so it’s effectively random from an external perspective.
Have you started moving channels that are not on that list?
As I got a channel moved that I wasn’t expecting to be moved… And my bot code tripped up 
[Retracted I spotted my fluff up]
New update to force emails…
If a chat has been transitioned to AWS.
Does the TMI Chatters list end point correctly poll the right server for presence, or is it pooling presence from both clusters.
Since one of the chats I lurk transistioned over night, and thus therefore I wasn’t present in the chat, but according to my recordings of TMI chatters I was…
Other items of interest:
- irc.chat.twitch.tv supports 80, 6667 (no SSL) and 443, 6697 (SSL)
http://tmi.twitch.tv/servers?channel=brildum
I’m a bit confused, that endpoint only returns the one url with port 80 but you stated it supports 443 for SSL. I most definitely am getting errors on 443 but no problems on 80. Can anyone else confirm this? (Not web socket server, and my code works fine on 443 for users on the old clusters)
It includes users from both clusters.
This is correct. We check both room servers and deduplicate the results. You’ll see the correct list of chatters regardless of cluster.
