# Setting up Appservice Kakaotalk bridging (optional)
|
|
|
|
The playbook can install and configure [matrix-appservice-kakaotalk](https://src.miscworks.net/fair/matrix-appservice-kakaotalk) for you, for bridging to [Kakaotalk](https://www.kakaocorp.com/page/service/service/KakaoTalk?lang=ENG). This bridge is based on [node-kakao](https://github.com/storycraft/node-kakao) (now unmaintained) and some [mautrix-facebook](https://github.com/mautrix/facebook) code.
|
|
|
|
See the project's [documentation](https://src.miscworks.net/fair/matrix-appservice-kakaotalk/src/branch/master/README.md) to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
|
|
|
|
> [!WARNING]
|
|
> There have been recent reports (~2022-09-16) that **using this bridge may get your account banned**.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisite (optional)
|
|
|
|
### Enable Shared Secret Auth
|
|
|
|
If you want to set up [Double Puppeting](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/double-puppeting.html) (hint: you most likely do) for this bridge automatically, you need to have enabled [Shared Secret Auth](configuring-playbook-shared-secret-auth.md) for this playbook.
|
|
|
|
See [this section](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-bridges.md#set-up-double-puppeting-optional) on the [common guide for configuring mautrix bridges](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-bridges.md) for details about setting up Double Puppeting.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: double puppeting with the Shared Secret Auth works at the time of writing, but is deprecated and will stop working in the future.
|
|
|
|
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
|
|
|
|
To enable the bridge, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_appservice_kakaotalk_enabled: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Extending the configuration
|
|
|
|
There are some additional things you may wish to configure about the bridge.
|
|
|
|
Take a look at:
|
|
|
|
- `roles/custom/matrix-bridge-appservice-kakaotalk/defaults/main.yml` for some variables that you can customize via your `vars.yml` file
|
|
- `roles/custom/matrix-bridge-appservice-kakaotalk/templates/config.yaml.j2` for the bridge's default configuration. You can override settings (even those that don't have dedicated playbook variables) using the `matrix_appservice_kakaotalk_configuration_extension_yaml` variable
|
|
|
|
## Installing
|
|
|
|
After configuring the playbook, run it 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,ensure-matrix-users-created,start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Notes**:
|
|
|
|
- The `ensure-matrix-users-created` playbook tag makes the playbook automatically create the bot's user account.
|
|
|
|
- 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.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To use the bridge, you need to start a chat with `@kakaotalkbot:example.com` (where `example.com` is your base domain, not the `matrix.` domain).
|
|
|
|
You then need to send `login --save EMAIL_OR_PHONE_NUMBER` to the bridge bot to enable bridging for your Kakaotalk account. The `--save` flag may be omitted, if you'd rather not save your password.
|
|
|
|
## 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-appservice-kakaotalk`.
|
|
|
|
### Increase logging verbosity
|
|
|
|
The default logging level for this component is `WARNING`. If you want to increase the verbosity, add the following configuration to your `vars.yml` file and re-run the playbook:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_appservice_kakaotalk_logging_level: DEBUG
|
|
```
