We do this for 2 reasons:
- so we can control things which are not controllable using environment
variables (for example `stunServers` in jitsi/web, since we don't wish
to use the hardcoded Google STUN servers if our own Coturn is enabled)
- so playbook variable changes will properly rebuild the configuration.
When using Jitsi environment variables, the configuration is only built
once (the first time) and never rebuilt again. This is not the
consistent with the rest of the playbook and with how Ansible operates.
We're not perfect at it (yet), because we still let the Jitsi containers
generate some files on their own, but we are closer and it should be
good enough for most things.
Related to #415 (Github Pull Request).
This keeps the roles cleaner and more independent of matrix-base,
which may be important for people building their own playbook
out of the individual roles and not using the matrix-base role.
This adds into the Riot config.json the field
'default_server_config.m.homeserver.server_name'
with, by default, the value of the playbook's 'matrix_domain' variable.
Riot displays this string in its login page and will now say 'Sign in to
your Matrix account on example.org' (the server name) instead of 'Sign
in ... on matrix.example.org' (the server domain-name).
This string can be configured by setting the playbook variable
'matrix_riot_web_default_server_name'
to any string, so we can make Riot say for example 'Sign in ... on Our
Server'.
