A Matrix-WhatsApp puppeting bridge

[BrutalBirdie]

Neat! Where can I check it out? @andreasdueren

[andreasdueren]

@BrutalBirdie You should be able to manually install it from docker hub: cloudron install --image andreasdueren/matrix-whatsapp-bridge:latest

[BrutalBirdie]

@andreasdueren Ok, but where is the code? I also need the Cloudron manifest and wanted to do some code reviewing.

[andreasdueren]

@BrutalBirdie I can commit it to the git but I think someone else needs to create the project there first?

[BrutalBirdie]

@andreasdueren what is your git.cloudron.io username?
I can create you a repo and invite you as the maintainer.

[andreasdueren]

@BrutalBirdie dueren

@andreasdueren Invited you as owner => https://git.cloudron.io/BrutalBirdie/matrix-whatsapp-puppet-bridge/

[andreasdueren]

Btw unrelated to the package but something I noticed for testing is that federation between two matrix instances on the same server doesn't seem to work.

@andreasdueren said in A Matrix-WhatsApp puppeting bridge:

federation between two matrix instances on the same server doesn't seem to work.

I think I remember something about multiple instances of Pixelfed on the same server also having issues.

@andreasdueren what if you VPN one?

[andreasdueren]

@robi I already removed one instance. But logging into one via VPN didn’t work for me, I did try that.

[andreasdueren]

@andreasdueren could probably be solved by changing the matrix config file. This is my current entry for the federation blacklist which explains why this didn't work:

federation_ip_range_blacklist:
  - '127.0.0.0/8'
  - '10.0.0.0/8'
  - '172.16.0.0/12'
  - '192.168.0.0/16'
  - '100.64.0.0/10'
  - '169.254.0.0/16'
  - '::1/128'
  - 'fe80::/64'
  - 'fc00::/7'

@andreasdueren yeah. I meant the server, but it sounds like you found the reason!

[BetaBreak]

Would it be possible to modify this Cloudron Matrix Bridge deployment for Signal/ mautrix-signal ?

[BrutalBirdie]

@BetaBreak hold your

Firstly @andreasdueren needs the support to get everything working.
After that, feature requests.

If you want to support @andreasdueren I bet he would gladly accept some sponsored coffee to fuel his determined work
Or if you are capable, support his work with code-reviews. That would be even better.

Sorry if I speak for you @andreasdueren hope this is okay.

[scooke]

If @andreasdueren has ko-fi account or something I'll pitch in for coffees!

[BrutalBirdie]

@andreasdueren I think you need to create a ko-fi account if you don't have one already

[andreasdueren]

@BrutalBirdie @scooke thank you but more than money I could use help reviewing the code

[robi]

@andreasdueren Are your AI friends not interested in reviewing code?

[andreasdueren]

@robi Unfortunately my mighty AI overlords are currently not interested in (capable) of solving this yet.
