+ \page qmlbot QML bot example
+
+ The QML bot example is a simplified version of the \ref bot "bot example",
+ written in QML. See the \ref qml article for more QML specific details.
+
+ \image html qmlbot.png "The QML bot example in action"
+
+ The following snippet illustrates how IrcConnection is prepared and opened,
+ and how a command is queued to automatically join a channel when connected.
+
+ \snippet qmlbot/qml/main.qml connection
+
+ The example utilizes IrcCommandParser for parsing commands from messages
+ received from other clients. In order to take the parser in use, the supported
+ commands must be teached, as illustrated below. Some of the commands are context
+ sensitive, and the parser must be therefore kept aware of the list of channels
+ the bot is on. This is easily achieved by binding the IrcCommandParser::channels
+ property to the value of the IrcBufferModel::channels property. Furthermore, like
+ a typical IRC bot, the commands are triggered using a slightly different syntax in
+ queries and channels.
+
+ \snippet qmlbot/qml/main.qml parser
+
+ The bot listens to incoming messages via \ref IrcConnection::messageReceived().
+ The current target is chosen based on whether the incoming message is a channel
+ or a private message. Each message content is parsed for commands that were
+ taught earlier.
