As the future for the MX bridges in this playbook and by themselves seems uncertain, this commit adds license information in SPDX format to the files for those bridges, before the bridges would be deprecated and possibly get removed from the project. Please note that .license files are added for the files which would be broken if such information are added as header, following the REUSE's specification.

Setting up MX Puppet Twitter bridging (optional)
Note: bridging to Twitter can also happen via the mautrix-twitter bridge supported by the playbook.
The playbook can install and configure mx-puppet-twitter for you.
See the project's documentation to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
Prerequisite
Make an app on developer.twitter.com.
Adjusting the playbook configuration
To enable the Twitter bridge, add the following configuration to your inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml file:
matrix_mx_puppet_twitter_enabled: true
matrix_mx_puppet_twitter_consumer_key: ''
matrix_mx_puppet_twitter_consumer_secret: ''
matrix_mx_puppet_twitter_access_token: ''
matrix_mx_puppet_twitter_access_token_secret: ''
matrix_mx_puppet_twitter_environment: ''
Installing
After configuring the playbook, run it with playbook tags as below:
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,ensure-matrix-users-created,start
Notes:
-
The
ensure-matrix-users-createdplaybook tag makes the playbook automatically create the bot's user account. -
The shortcut commands with the
justprogram are also available:just install-allorjust setup-alljust install-allis useful for maintaining your setup quickly (2x-5x faster thanjust setup-all) when its components remain unchanged. If you adjust yourvars.ymlto remove other components, you'd need to runjust setup-all, or these components will still remain installed.
Usage
To use the bridge, you need to start a chat with Twitter Puppet Bridge with the handle @_twitterpuppet_bot:example.com (where example.com is your base domain, not the matrix. domain).
To log in, use link and click the link.
Once logged in, send list to the bot user to list the available rooms.
Clicking rooms in the list will result in you receiving an invitation to the bridged room.
Send help to the bot to see the available commands.
