# Setting up Appservice Double Puppet (optional)
|
|
|
|
Appservice Double Puppet is a homeserver appservice through which bridges (and potentially other services) can impersonate any user on the homeserver.
|
|
|
|
This is useful for performing [double-puppeting](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/double-puppeting.html) via the [appservice method](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/double-puppeting.html#appservice-method-new). The Appservice Double Puppet service is an implementation of this approach.
|
|
|
|
Previously, bridges supported performing [double-puppeting](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/double-puppeting.html) with the help of the [Shared Secret Auth password provider module](./configuring-playbook-shared-secret-auth.md), but this old and hacky solution has been superseded by this Appservice Double Puppet method.
|
|
|
|
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
|
|
|
|
To enable the Appservice Double Puppet service, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_appservice_double_puppet_enabled: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 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
|
|
|
|
When enabled, double puppeting will automatically be enabled for all bridges that support double puppeting via the appservice method.
