@jdaviescoates This does look good!

@girish any chance of converting this to a Cloudron install?

[girish]

@Sam_uk are you looking for a specific connector? I think adding all of them is not going to be "sustainable". It's just going to break with all releases and dependencies.

@girish Yes, Slack integration is my immediate need. I believe 'puppeting' is the best way, although I don't know much about it.

A RSS > #Channel would be nice to have too.

As an aside I think https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge#readme exists as a Nextcloud module, but I'm not sure if that helps here? https://github.com/nextcloud/talk_matterbridge

@Sam_uk interesting, matterbridge has now expanded beyond mattermost. Have you tried that already ? You can always drop the binary in any app's /app/data directory and use the @service cron type - https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/#cron .

@girish Thanks, I'll give it a go

For me it's really only the WhatsApp bridge. It's by far the most popular chat service, requires no API access with a complex registration process or high fees and is fairly easy to use. I am basically currently running a separate server with yunohost just so I can use the bridge and would love to change that.
