The common pattern is "Send `.*?` to the bot (in the room) to see the available commands." If the descripions are about a bot being invited to a certain existing room or room which is not DM, then "in the room" is inserted among them. Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org>

# Setting up MX Puppet Slack bridging (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Note**: bridging to [Slack](https://slack.com) can also happen via the [matrix-appservice-slack](configuring-playbook-bridge-appservice-slack.md) and [mautrix-slack](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-slack.md) bridges supported by the playbook. Note that `matrix-appservice-slack` is not available for new installation unless you have already created a classic Slack application, because the creation of classic Slack applications, which this bridge makes use of, has been discontinued.
|
|
|
|
The playbook can install and configure [mx-puppet-slack](https://gitlab.com/mx-puppet/slack/mx-puppet-slack) for you.
|
|
|
|
See the project's [documentation](https://gitlab.com/mx-puppet/slack/mx-puppet-slack/blob/master/README.md) to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisite
|
|
|
|
Follow the [OAuth credentials](https://gitlab.com/mx-puppet/slack/mx-puppet-slack#option-2-oauth) instructions to create a new Slack app, setting the redirect URL to `https://matrix.example.com/slack/oauth`.
|
|
|
|
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
|
|
|
|
To enable the [Slack](https://slack.com/) bridge, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_mx_puppet_slack_enabled: true
|
|
# Client ID must be quoted so YAML does not parse it as a float.
|
|
matrix_mx_puppet_slack_oauth_client_id: "<SLACK_APP_CLIENT_ID>"
|
|
matrix_mx_puppet_slack_oauth_client_secret: "<SLACK_APP_CLIENT_SECRET>"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 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 `Slack Puppet Bridge` with the handle `@_slackpuppet_bot:example.com` (where `example.com` is your base domain, not the `matrix.` domain).
|
|
|
|
Three authentication methods are available, Legacy Token, OAuth and xoxc token. See mx-puppet-slack [documentation](https://gitlab.com/mx-puppet/slack/mx-puppet-slack) for more information about how to configure the bridge.
|
|
|
|
Once logged in, send `list` to the bot user to list the available rooms.
|
|
|
|
Clicking rooms in the list will result in you receiving an invitation to the bridged room.
|
|
|
|
Send `help` to the bot to see the available commands.
