matterbridge
Simple bridge between mattermost and IRC. Uses the in/outgoing
webhooks.
Relays public channel messages between mattermost and IRC.
Requires mattermost 1.2.0+
There is also [matterbridge-plus] (https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge-plus) which uses the mattermost API and needs a dedicated user (bot). But requires no incoming/outgoing webhook setup.
binaries
Binaries can be found [here] (https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge/releases/tag/v0.4.2)
building
Go 1.6+ is required. Make sure you have Go properly installed, including setting up your [GOPATH] (https://golang.org/doc/code.html#GOPATH)
cd $GOPATH
go get github.com/42wim/matterbridge
You should now have matterbridge binary in the bin directory:
$ ls bin/
matterbridge
running
- Copy the matterbridge.conf.sample to matterbridge.conf in the same
directory as the matterbridge binary.
- Edit matterbridge.conf with the settings for your environment. See
below for more config information.
- Now you can run matterbridge.
Usage of ./matterbridge:
-conf string
config file (default "matterbridge.conf")
-debug
enable debug
-plus
running using API instead of webhooks
-version
show version
Matterbridge will: * start a webserver listening on the port specified in the configuration. * connect to specified irc server and channel. * send messages from mattermost to irc and vice versa, messages in mattermost will appear with irc-nick
config
matterbridge
matterbridge looks for matterbridge.conf in current directory. (use -conf to specify another file)
Look at [matterbridge.conf.sample] (https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge/blob/master/matterbridge.conf.sample) for an example.
mattermost
You’ll have to configure the incoming en outgoing webhooks.
incoming webhooks Go to “account settings” - integrations - “incoming webhooks”.
Choose a channel at “Add a new incoming webhook”, this will create a webhook URL right below.
This URL should be set in the matterbridge.conf in the mattermost section (see above)outgoing webhooks Go to “account settings” - integrations - “outgoing webhooks”.
Choose a channel (the same as the one from incoming webhooks) and fill in the address and port of the server matterbridge will run on.
e.g. http://192.168.1.1:9999 (9999 is the port specified in mattermost section of matterbridge.conf)
