Matrix synapse service with IRC and Telegram gateways
=====================================================
# Matrix synapse service with a TURN server and riot-web frontend
A collection of systemd services that run synapse and the IRC gateway
(matrix-appservice-irc) in an isolated read-only alpine squashfs image.
A collection of systemd services that run synapse, riot-web and a TURN server
as systemd portable services.
Building the squashfs image

It will create a rootfs/ folder with an alpine filesystem, install synapse,
matrix-appservice-irc and compress it into a squashfs image that will be used
as a root filesystem for the container.
compress it into a squashfs image that will be used as a root filesystem for

If the script finished successfully, you should get an \~45M matrix.raw
If the script finished successfully, you should get an \~25M matrix.raw
image.
Running the portable services
-----------------------------
## Running the portable services
Attach the container with `sudo portablectl attach ./matrix.raw`.
The output should look something like this:
``` {.sourceCode .shell}
$ sudo portablectl attach ./matrix.raw
Created directory /etc/systemd/system.attached.
Created directory /etc/systemd/system.attached/matrix.service.d.
Written /etc/systemd/system.attached/matrix.service.d/20-portable.conf.
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system.attached/matrix.service.d/10-profile.conf → /usr/lib/systemd/portable/profile/default/service.conf.
Copied /etc/systemd/system.attached/matrix.service.
Created directory /etc/systemd/system.attached/matrix-appservice-irc.service.d.
Written /etc/systemd/system.attached/matrix-appservice-irc.service.d/20-portable.conf.
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system.attached/matrix-appservice-irc.service.d/10-profile.conf → /usr/lib/systemd/portable/profile/default/service.conf.
Copied /etc/systemd/system.attached/matrix-appservice-irc.service.
Created symlink /etc/portables/matrix.raw → /tmp/matrix.raw.
Start/Stop as any other systemd service, e.g:
``` {.sourceCode .shell}
sudo systemctl start matrix-appservice-irc.service
sudo systemctl stop matrix.service
```
Existing matrix installations
-----------------------------
## Install another existing service
1. Stop your current services.
2. Copy all configuration files to `/etc/matrix`.
3. Run all portable services, so that they create all directories in
`/var/lib`.
4. Copy all data files, e.g. homeserver.db if you\'re using sqlite,
media and upload folders for synapse, rooms.db for the irc gateway,
etc. to `/var/lib/matrix-{synapse,appservice-irc}`.
Warning
-------
You should set up all logging to stdout.
Any configuration that has something to do with the filesystem should be
configured to write files to `/var/lib/matrix-{synapse,appservice-irc}`.
TODO
----
- Use a Makefile to build the image. Add attach, detach and clean
targets.
``` {.sourceCode .shell}
NAME=riot sh build.sh
sudo systemctl start riot.service
```
