This paves the way for installing other roles into `roles/galaxy` using `ansible-galaxy`, similar to how it's done in: - https://github.com/spantaleev/gitea-docker-ansible-deploy - https://github.com/spantaleev/nextcloud-docker-ansible-deploy In the near future, we'll be removing a lot of the shared role code from here and using upstream roles for it. Some of the core `matrix-*` roles have already been extracted out into other reusable roles: - https://github.com/devture/com.devture.ansible.role.postgres - https://github.com/devture/com.devture.ansible.role.systemd_docker_base - https://github.com/devture/com.devture.ansible.role.timesync - https://github.com/devture/com.devture.ansible.role.vars_preserver - https://github.com/devture/com.devture.ansible.role.playbook_runtime_messages - https://github.com/devture/com.devture.ansible.role.playbook_help We just need to migrate to those.

# Setting up Heisenbridge (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Note**: bridging to [IRC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat) can also happen via the [matrix-appservice-irc](configuring-playbook-bridge-appservice-irc.md) bridge supported by the playbook.
|
|
|
|
The playbook can install and configure [Heisenbridge](https://github.com/hifi/heisenbridge) - the bouncer-style [IRC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat) bridge for you.
|
|
|
|
See the project's [README](https://github.com/hifi/heisenbridge/blob/master/README.md) to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you. You can also take a look at [this demonstration video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQk1Bp4tk4I).
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Below are the common configuration options that you may want to set, exhaustive list is in [the bridge's defaults var file](../roles/custom/matrix-bridge-heisenbridge/defaults/main.yml).
|
|
|
|
At a minimum, you only need to enable the bridge to get it up and running (`inventory/host_vars/matrix.DOMAIN/vars.yml`):
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_heisenbridge_enabled: true
|
|
|
|
# set owner (optional)
|
|
matrix_heisenbridge_owner: "@you:your-homeserver"
|
|
|
|
# to enable identd on host port 113/TCP (optional)
|
|
matrix_heisenbridge_identd_enabled: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
That's it! A registration file is automatically generated during the setup phase.
|
|
|
|
Setting the owner is optional as the first local user to DM `@heisenbridge:your-homeserver` 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.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
After the bridge is successfully running just DM `@heisenbridge:your-homeserver` to start setting it up.
|
|
Help is available for all commands with the `-h` switch.
|
|
If the bridge ignores you and a DM is not accepted then the owner setting may be wrong.
|
|
|
|
You can also learn the basics by watching [this demonstration video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQk1Bp4tk4I).
