Could you also please tell what would be the nginx configuration for it to pull it up?

Notes:
Needs to go into a server block (I have it in its own file then include it into each virtual server I want it to be used on)

also needs webircgateway's config.conf changing to listen on 127.0.0.1:7778 with no tls

Hello ItsOnlyBinary.
I managed to install kiwiirc with this process.
Also, I can see the file-uploader plugin in my kiwi chat client but unfortunately the upload fails.
https://app.chatsansar.com

I don't know what went wrong.

I installed multiple kiwiirc (prebuilt binary, github, webircgateway) to check it but nothing works.

Is it supposed to run with command line, ./webircgateway in the /kiwiirc/run/ directory because this does not work;
cp ~/kiwiirc/webircgateway/webircgateway ~/kiwiirc/run/

I mean it does not copy the webircgateway executive.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Also, in nginx, isn't it is supposed to be
root /home/(user)/kiwiirc/run/www/ instead of root /usr/share/kiwiirc/ ?

Because my /usr/share/kiwiirc/ has its client.json in /etc/kiwiirc/

or even in kiwiirc config.conf
webroot = /home/timerider/kiwiirc/run/www/ instead of webroot = www/ ?

Please, I need some help over it. If by skype or something more convenient.

Upload failed.

Please see the attachement.

you might find life easier if you build fileuploader as a standalone binary, rather than as a webircgateway plugin, see the readme in the fileuploader repo, also might find it easier to get help in #kiwiirc on irc.freenode.net
