# Setting up MatrixZulipBridge (optional) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The playbook can install and configure [MatrixZulipBridge](https://github.com/GearKite/MatrixZulipBridge) for you. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See the project's [documentation](https://github.com/GearKite/MatrixZulipBridge/blob/main/README.md) to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Adjusting DNS records (optional) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, this playbook installs MatrixZulipBridge on the `matrix.` subdomain, at the `/matrixzulipbridge` path (https://matrix.example.com/matrixzulipbridge). This makes it easy to install it, because it **doesn't require additional DNS records to be set up**. If that's okay, you can skip this section. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you wish to adjust it, see the section [below](#adjusting-the-matrixzulipbridge-url-optional) for details about DNS configuration. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Adjusting the playbook configuration |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To enable MatrixZulipBridge, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml |
|
|
|
matrix_matrixzulipbridge_enabled: true |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Setting the owner is optional as the first local user to DM `@matrixzulipbridge:example.com` will be made the owner. |
|
|
|
# If you are not using a local user you must set it as otherwise you can't DM it at all. |
|
|
|
matrix_matrixzulipbridge_owner: "@alice:{{ matrix_domain }}" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Uncomment to enable identd on host port 113/TCP (optional) |
|
|
|
# matrix_matrixzulipbridge_identd_enabled: true |
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Adjusting the MatrixZulipBridge URL (optional) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By tweaking the `matrix_matrixzulipbridge_hostname` and `matrix_matrixzulipbridge_path_prefix` variables, you can easily make the service available at a **different hostname and/or path** than the default one. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example additional configuration for your `vars.yml` file: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml |
|
|
|
# Change the default hostname and path prefix |
|
|
|
matrix_matrixzulipbridge_hostname: matrixzulipbridge.example.com |
|
|
|
matrix_matrixzulipbridge_path_prefix: / |
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you've changed the default hostname, you may need to create a CNAME record for the MatrixZulipBridge domain (`matrixzulipbridge.example.com`), which targets `matrix.example.com`. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When setting, replace `example.com` with your own. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Extending the configuration |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are some additional things you may wish to configure about the bridge. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Take a look at: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `roles/custom/matrix-bridge-matrixzulipbridge/defaults/main.yml` for some variables that you can customize via your `vars.yml` file |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installing |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After configuring the playbook and potentially [adjusting your DNS records](#adjusting-dns-records), run the playbook with [playbook tags](playbook-tags.md) as below: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- NOTE: let this conservative command run (instead of install-all) to make it clear that failure of the command means something is clearly broken. --> |
|
|
|
```sh |
|
|
|
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,start |
|
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The shortcut commands with the [`just` program](just.md) are also available: `just install-all` or `just setup-all` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`just install-all` is useful for maintaining your setup quickly ([2x-5x faster](../CHANGELOG.md#2x-5x-performance-improvements-in-playbook-runtime) than `just setup-all`) when its components remain unchanged. If you adjust your `vars.yml` to remove other components, you'd need to run `just setup-all`, or these components will still remain installed. Note these shortcuts run the `ensure-matrix-users-created` tag too. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use the bridge, you need to start a chat with `@zulipbridge:example.com` (where `example.com` is your base domain, not the `matrix.` domain). If the bridge ignores you and a DM is not accepted then the owner setting may be wrong. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you encounter issues or feel lost you can join the project room at [#matrixzulipbridge:shema.lv](https://matrix.to/#/#matrixzulipbridge:shema.lv) for help. |

|
## Troubleshooting |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As with all other services, you can find the logs in [systemd-journald](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-journald.service.html) by logging in to the server with SSH and running `journalctl -fu matrix-matrixzulipbridge`. |
