2 years ago You are right, this should be added I will make sure it's on the next release.
Currently you can still redact messages it's just a little more complicated:
- Make sure
Global Access To Matrix Clientis turned on in your matrix server config - Under examples in this repository there is one called Use function node to run any command and it is actually an example of how to redact messages. Any message passed to the input of the function node in that example will be redacted (or just set
msg.event_idof the event you want redacted) - Make sure you edit the function node and change the lines at the top to match your client's name (the global variable is set to the user ID of the client).
Once I get a redact node added it will work pretty much the same as that example flow so if you use that in the mean time upgrading later will be really easy. You will just replace the function node with the official node at that point.
This library is great as it is, but would be awesome if we could delete messages with it. I think of a use case where I send a message and delete it a few seconds/minutes later.
