This was useful when the order of these roles in relation to Synapse
mattered (when we were injecting stuff into Synapse variables during
runtime). This is no longer the case since 0ea7cb5d1812a88, so all of
this can be removed.
Adds support for: https://src.miscworks.net/fair/matrix-appservice-kakaotalk
This is pretty similar to
https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/pull/1977
which just appeared, but has mostly been done independently.
I've taken some inspiration and did some fixups based on that PR.
Thanks to https://github.com/hnarjis for taking the time to contribute!
Notable differences between this branch compared to that PR:
- better naming and documentation around the "configuration" variables
- no unnecessary (5 sec.) intentional delay when starting `matrix-appservice-kakaotalk-node.service`
- stores configuration in `config/`, not in `data/`
- passes configuration as read-only and starts the bridge with (`--no-update`) to ensure no changes are made to it
- starts containers more securely - with `matrix:matrix` user:group (not `root`) and
reduced capabilities (`--cap-drop=ALL`)
- uses `tcp` for communication between the "node" and the appservice (simpler than sharing unix sockets)
- `registration.yaml` which is closer to the one generated by `matrix-appservice-kakaotalk` (no `de.sorunome.msc2409.push_ephemeral` stuff, etc.)
- `registration.yaml` which is more customizable (customizable bot username and prefix for puppets - see `matrix_appservice_kakaotalk_appservice_bot_username` and `matrix_appservice_kakaotalk_user_prefix`)
- less fragile and more extensible bridge permissions configuration via `matrix_appservice_kakaotalk_bridge_permissions`. Doing `{% if matrix_admin %}` in the bridge configuration sometimes causes syntax problems (I hit some myself) and is not ideal. Other bridges should be redone as well.
- configurable command prefix for the bridge, instead of hardcoding `!kt` (see `matrix_appservice_kakaotalk_command_prefix`)
- logging that is more consistent with the rest of the playbook (console / journald only, no logging to files), as well as configurable log level (via `matrix_appservice_kakaotalk_logging_level`)
- somewhat more detailed documentation (`docs/configuring-playbook-bridge-appservice-kakaotalk.md`)
- removed some dead code (data relocation tasks from `tasks/setup_install.yml`, as well as likely unnecessary SQLite -> Postgres migration)
