These documentations, unlike docs/installing.md and docs/quick-start.md, describe how to handle users (registering them or changing their passwords), some of whom are yours, while others are not.

* Update docs/installing.md: add "your" to make it clear that it is "your" account that is going to be created
Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org>
* Update docs/installing.md and docs/quick-start.md: mention "make roles"
This commit adds mentions to "make roles" and a note about the preference of ansible-playbook commands over the just "recipes".
quick-start.md intends to be referred by those who have never used the playbook to set up a server, so it is safer to regard that it is not clear to them what exactly the just "recipes" are made of, ie. it takes some time and experience until someone understands simplicity of them. For beginners, I believe that we should prefer the basics over simplicity, from the educational point of view.
If someone feels tired of using the same command repetitively, then the person will have been already well accustomed to the way how the playbook works and how the server is supposed to be maintained, and the person is "qualified" to use the just "recipes", and should be able to use them with confidence, distinguishing the playbook tags from the "recipes", for example, from "just install-all" and "ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=install-all". Such level of familiarity and experience should not be expected on the quick start guide.
Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org>
* Update instructions to update Ansible roles
Also: move the detailed explanation about "just roles" from installing.md to maintenance-upgrading-services.md
TBD: create a dedicated documentation for the "just" program and the concept of its "recipe" (shortcut of commands)
Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org>
* Add a note about cases to create multiple accounts/users
Since one of the quick start guide's goals is to set up an own user account, this commit adds the note about creating multiple accounts/users to installing.md and registering-users.md only. It should be fine as registering-users.md is linked from quick-start.md
Also:
- On installing.md and quick-start.md, change instruction from what encourages to select "admin=yes" or "admin=no" to what encourages to use "admin=yes", since your user account will be the sole user on the server, as long as you set up the server by following the documentation
- Remove the link to registering-users.md from quick-start.md as the documentation is already linked above, under the header of the section
- Sync docs/installing.md with other documentation
Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org>
* Remove a line about setting "admin=yes" to reduce the amount of information
Because quick-start.md is getting longer with much information, it removes the note in favor of the linked registering-users.md documentation. The note is available on installing.md as well, and details about adding user accounts for other people can (and should) be checked on those documentations.
Also, this commit edits lines above these notes to make it clear that your user account will be an administrator of the server.
With this commit, the amount of the information about adding user accounts will be: registering-users.md > installing.md > quick-start.md

* Replace repetitive information about upgrading with an anchor link to docs/maintenance-upgrading-services.md

If you've configured your DNS records and retrieved the playbook's source code to your computer, you can start configuring the playbook. To do so, follow these steps inside the playbook directory:
2018-08-08 07:07:02 +00:00
2024-10-18 10:06:05 +00:00
1. create a directory to hold your configuration (`mkdir -p inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com` where `example.com` is your "base domain")
2018-08-08 07:07:02 +00:00
2024-10-18 10:06:05 +00:00
2. copy the sample configuration file (`cp examples/vars.yml inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml`)
2018-08-08 07:07:02 +00:00
2024-10-18 10:06:05 +00:00
3. edit the configuration file (`inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml`) to your liking. You may also take a look at the various `roles/*/ROLE_NAME_HERE/defaults/main.yml` files and see if there's something you'd like to copy over and override in your `vars.yml` configuration file.
2018-08-08 07:07:02 +00:00
2024-10-18 10:06:05 +00:00
4. copy the sample inventory hosts file (`cp examples/hosts inventory/hosts`)
2018-08-08 07:07:02 +00:00
2024-10-18 10:06:05 +00:00
5. edit the inventory hosts file (`inventory/hosts`) to your liking
2018-08-08 07:07:02 +00:00
2024-10-18 10:06:05 +00:00
6. (optional, advanced) you may wish to keep your `inventory` directory under version control with [git ](https://git-scm.com/ ) or any other version-control system.
2024-01-09 17:08:43 +00:00
2024-10-18 10:06:05 +00:00
7. (optional, advanced) to run Ansible against multiple servers with different `sudo` credentials, you can copy the sample inventory hosts yaml file for each of your hosts: (`cp examples/host.yml inventory/my_host1.yml` …) and use the [`ansible-all-hosts.sh` ](../bin/ansible-all-hosts.sh ) script [in the installation step ](installing.md ).
2018-08-08 07:07:02 +00:00
For a basic Matrix installation, that's all you need.
2024-10-18 10:06:05 +00:00
2018-08-08 07:07:02 +00:00
For a more custom setup, see the [Other configuration options ](#other-configuration-options ) below.

[▶️ ](installing.md ) When you're done with all the configuration you'd like to do, continue with [Installing ](installing.md ).

- [Setting up WeChat bridging ](configuring-playbook-bridge-wechat.md )
Add support for WeChat bridging
This is based on the PR (https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/pull/3241)
by Tobias Diez (https://github.com/tobiasdiez).
I've refactored some parts, made it more configurable, polished it up,
and it's integrated into the playbook now.
Both the WeChat bridge and WeChat agent appear to be working.
The WeChat bridge joins rooms and responds as expected.
That said, end-to-end testing (actually bridging to a WeChat account) has not been done yet.
Fixes https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/701

Rename WeChat Agent configuration file
This makes it more clear that it belongs to the agent.
Otherwise, `config.yaml` and `configure.yaml` make you wonder.

Make sure matrix-wechat-agent runs as 1000:1000
It needs to write stuff to `/home/user/.vnc`.
`/home/user` is owned by `user:group` (`1000:1000`), so it cannot run
any other way.
Previously, if the `matrix` user was uid=1000 by chance, it would work,
but that's pure luck.

matrix_go_wechat_ -> matrix_wechat_
The bridge is written in Go, but does not include Go anywhere in its
name. As such, it's mostly useless to use `matrix_go_wechat` as the
prefix.
