Matterbridge-heroku: banana pepper

This is a fork of the original matterbridge-heroku.

It includes a custom config file specific to one implementation, but this can easily be modified in a new fork.

About this Fork

Heroku is a platform for easily deploying applications.

A buildpack provides framework and runtime support for apps running on platforms like Heroku.

An inline buildpack is a special buildpack that includes code for both the app and the buildpack that runs the app.

Matterbridge is a simple bridge that can relay messages between a number of different chat services, essentially connecting separate chat tools.

This fork is intended to help bridge channels between both the EDGI and Archivers Slack teams.

• Required envvars:
  • MATTERBRIDGE_VERSION. Use a matterbridge git tag.
  • SLACK_<team name>_TOKEN. See Slack bot setup documentation.
• Optional envvars:
  • MATTERBRIDGE_URL. Use this to download the binary from a custom url instead of the tagged release from the official GitHub repo. (Setting this makes MATTERBRIDGE_VERSION ignored.)
    • With caution, you may want to use the latest nightly matterbridge build while waiting on the next official release.
  • DEBUG. Set to "1" to log all message events across bridges.
• Auto-deploys main branch to our heroku app: edgi-matterbridge
• main branch is protected branch, and changes must go through pull request process.
• Edit channel bridge config via config/config-heroku-template.toml.
