chat-bridge

An irc <=> slack chat bridge

Bridges

• #dokku: the dokku chatroom
  • slack (#dokku): enabled
  • irc (#dokku): enabled

Adding a new bridge

• Add the dokku-bot app on slack to the channel.
• Ensure the dokku-bot user on irc can join the channel.
• Add a new stanza like so to the matterbridge.toml.sigl:

  [[gateway]]
  name   = "$CHANNEL_ALIAS"
  enable = true
  
  [[gateway.inout]]
  account = "irc.freenode"
  channel = "$IRC_CHANNEL_NAME_WITHOUT_HASH"
  
  [[gateway.inout]]
  account = "slack.dokku"
  channel = "$SLACK_CHANNEL_NAME_WITHOUT_HASH"
  

• In the previously added gateway stanza, ensure the following are changed (using #lollipop as the example channel name on both discord and slack):
  • $CHANNEL_ALIAS: should be lollipop
  • $IRC_CHANNEL_NAME_WITHOUT_HASH: should be #lollipop
  • $SLACK_CHANNEL_NAME_WITHOUT_HASH: should be lollipop
• Deploy with the new bridge settings.
