Limit usage to only user on specified matrix server #1786

Closed maximushugus closed 3 months ago

maximushugus commented 6 months ago

I'm hosting a personal Matrix Synapse server using docker. I managed to set up matrix-appservice-irc with docker and make it work with my Synapse server. However I didn't find any option in config.yaml to limit the usage of this matrix-IRC bridge to only users on my server.

I tried to set : permissions: 'myserver.com': admin

But it didn't work.

Does someone know if there is a way to do this ?

Thanks

You can use https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-appservice-irc/blob/develop/config.sample.yaml#L235-L237 to exclude users following a Regex pattern. For instance:

      excludedUsers:
        - regex: "^@.*:(?!half-shot.uk).*$"
          kickReason: "Sorry, only half-shot.uk users allowed."

Thanks a lot for your super quick answer ! I didn't see this option when I was searching the config file. I will give it a try in the next few days ! Thanks

This option does not seem to work unfortunatly. I tried your regex (with my domain but I was still able to contact the bridge from my matrix.org account. I tried :

      excludedUsers:
        - regex: "(matrix.org)*"
          kickReason: "Sorry, not for you"

But I can still contact the bridge.

Maybe that's why there is no comment in config.sample.yaml to explain the signification of this option.

By contact, what can you do. You can probably talk to the bot but you certainly can't interact with IRC?
