# Setting up Appservice IRC bridging (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Note**: bridging to [IRC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat) can also happen via the [Heisenbridge](configuring-playbook-bridge-heisenbridge.md) bridge supported by the playbook.
|
|
|
|
The playbook can install and configure the [matrix-appservice-irc](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-appservice-irc) bridge for you.
|
|
|
|
See the project's [documentation](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-appservice-irc/blob/master/HOWTO.md) to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
|
|
|
|
## 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_irc_enabled: true
|
|
|
|
matrix_appservice_irc_ircService_servers:
|
|
irc.example.com:
|
|
name: "ExampleNet"
|
|
port: 6697
|
|
ssl: true
|
|
sasl: false
|
|
allowExpiredCerts: false
|
|
sendConnectionMessages: true
|
|
botConfig:
|
|
enabled: true
|
|
nick: "MatrixBot"
|
|
joinChannelsIfNoUsers: true
|
|
privateMessages:
|
|
enabled: true
|
|
federate: true
|
|
dynamicChannels:
|
|
enabled: true
|
|
createAlias: true
|
|
published: true
|
|
joinRule: public
|
|
groupId: +myircnetwork:localhost
|
|
federate: true
|
|
aliasTemplate: "#irc_$CHANNEL"
|
|
membershipLists:
|
|
enabled: false
|
|
floodDelayMs: 10000
|
|
global:
|
|
ircToMatrix:
|
|
initial: false
|
|
incremental: false
|
|
matrixToIrc:
|
|
initial: false
|
|
incremental: false
|
|
matrixClients:
|
|
userTemplate: "@irc_$NICK"
|
|
displayName: "$NICK (IRC)"
|
|
joinAttempts: -1
|
|
ircClients:
|
|
nickTemplate: "$DISPLAY[m]"
|
|
allowNickChanges: true
|
|
maxClients: 30
|
|
idleTimeout: 10800
|
|
reconnectIntervalMs: 5000
|
|
concurrentReconnectLimit: 50
|
|
lineLimit: 3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 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 `@irc_bot:example.com` (where `example.com` is your base domain, not the `matrix.` domain).
