Setting up matrix-registration-bot (optional)

The playbook can install and configure matrix-registration-bot for you.

The bot allows you to easily create and manage registration tokens aka. invitation codes. It can be used for an invitation-based server, where you invite someone by sending them a registration token (tokens look like this: rbalQ0zkaDSRQCOp). They can register as per normal but have to provide a valid registration token in the final step of the registration process.

See the project's documentation to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.

Configuration

To enable the bot, add the following configuration to your inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml file:

matrix_bot_matrix_registration_bot_enabled: true

# By default, the playbook will set use the bot with a username like this: `@bot.matrix-registration-bot:example.com`.
# Uncomment and adjust this part if you'd like to use a username different than the default
# matrix_bot_matrix_registration_bot_matrix_user_id_localpart: bot.matrix-registration-bot

# Generate a strong password here. Consider generating it with `pwgen -s 64 1`
matrix_bot_matrix_registration_bot_bot_password: PASSWORD_FOR_THE_BOT

# Enables registration
matrix_synapse_enable_registration: true

# Restrict registration to users with a token
matrix_synapse_registration_requires_token: true

The bot account will be created automatically.

Installing

After configuring the playbook, run the installation command: just install-all or just setup-all

Usage

To use the bot, start a chat with @bot.matrix-registration-bot:example.com (where example.com is your base domain, not the matrix. domain).

In this room send help and the bot will reply with all options.

You can also refer to the upstream Usage documentation.

If you have any questions, or if you need help setting it up, read the troublshooting guide or join #matrix-registration-bot:hyteck.de.

To clean the cache (session & encryption data) after you changed the bot's username, changed the login method from access_token to password etc... you can use:

just run-tags bot-matrix-registration-bot-clean-cache
