* Update docs/configuring-playbook-bridge-appservice-kakaotalk.md: fix the header for adjusting the playbook configuration
Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org>
* Move sections "Set up Double Puppeting" under "Usage" as subsections for mautrix bridges and appservice kakaotalk
The changes in this commit reflect double puppeting configuration flow. Since the docs claim that double puppeting can be set up after enabling bridges by chatting with the bridge's bot, the explanation about double puppeting may well be placed under "Usage" as subsection.
Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org>
* Remove notes about setting up double puppeting manually
Since this method is explained after configuring bridges, those notes are no longer necessary.

* Update docs for mautrix and kakaotalk bridges: add prerequisite(s) section for instructing to install Appservice Double Puppet and/or Shared Secret Auth service
Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org>
* Replace "Enabling Appservice Double Puppet" with "This"
Enabling Appservice Double Puppet is contrasted with "Enabling double puppeting by enabling the Shared Secret Auth service", therefore it can be just called as "this" if Shared Secret Auth service is not mentioned below.

# Setting up Mautrix Whatsapp bridging (optional)
|
|
|
|
The playbook can install and configure [mautrix-whatsapp](https://github.com/mautrix/whatsapp) for you.
|
|
|
|
See the project's [documentation](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/go/whatsapp/index.html) to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisite (optional)
|
|
|
|
If you want to set up [Double Puppeting](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/double-puppeting.html) (hint: you most likely do) for this bridge automatically, you need to have enabled [Appservice Double Puppet](configuring-playbook-appservice-double-puppet.md) or [Shared Secret Auth](configuring-playbook-shared-secret-auth.md) service for this playbook.
|
|
|
|
For details about configuring Double Puppeting for this bridge, see the section below: [Set up Double Puppeting](#-set-up-double-puppeting)
|
|
|
|
## 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_mautrix_whatsapp_enabled: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Whatsapp multidevice beta is required, now it is enough if Whatsapp is connected to the Internet every 2 weeks.
|
|
|
|
The relay bot functionality is off by default. If you would like to enable the relay bot, add the following to your `vars.yml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_mautrix_whatsapp_bridge_relay_enabled: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default, only admins are allowed to set themselves as relay users. To allow anyone on your homeserver to set themselves as relay users add this to your `vars.yml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_mautrix_whatsapp_bridge_relay_admin_only: false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you want to activate the relay bot in a room, send `!wa set-relay`. To deactivate, send `!wa unset-relay`.
|
|
|
|
## Installing
|
|
|
|
After configuring the playbook, run the [installation](installing.md) command: `just install-all` or `just setup-all`
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
You then need to start a chat with `@whatsappbot:example.com` (where `example.com` is your base domain, not the `matrix.` domain).
|
|
|
|
### 💡 Set up Double Puppeting
|
|
|
|
After successfully enabling bridging, you may wish to set up [Double Puppeting](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/double-puppeting.html) (hint: you most likely do).
|
|
|
|
To set it up, you have 2 ways of going about it.
|
|
|
|
#### Method 1: automatically, by enabling Appservice Double Puppet or Shared Secret Auth
|
|
|
|
The bridge automatically performs Double Puppeting if [Appservice Double Puppet](configuring-playbook-appservice-double-puppet.md) or [Shared Secret Auth](configuring-playbook-shared-secret-auth.md) service is configured and enabled on the server for this playbook.
|
|
|
|
Enabling [Appservice Double Puppet](configuring-playbook-appservice-double-puppet.md) is the recommended way of setting up Double Puppeting, as it's easier to accomplish, works for all your users automatically, and has less of a chance of breaking in the future.
|
|
|
|
Enabling double puppeting by enabling the [Shared Secret Auth](configuring-playbook-shared-secret-auth.md) service works at the time of writing, but is deprecated and will stop working in the future.
|
|
|
|
#### Method 2: manually, by asking each user to provide a working access token
|
|
|
|
When using this method, **each user** that wishes to enable Double Puppeting needs to follow the following steps:
|
|
|
|
- retrieve a Matrix access token for yourself. Refer to the documentation on [how to do that](obtaining-access-tokens.md).
|
|
|
|
- send the access token to the bot. Example: `login-matrix MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE`
|
|
|
|
- make sure you don't log out the `Mautrix-Whatsapp` device some time in the future, as that would break the Double Puppeting feature
