Therefore, you can easily build a bot, chat relay, or administrate your Matrix server from within [Node-RED](https://nodered.org/).

### Installing
You can either install from within Node-RED by searching for `node-red-contrib-matrix-chat` or run this from within your Node-RED directory:
```bash
npm install node-red-contrib-matrix-chat
```

### Usage
We have examples! [Check them out](https://github.com/Skylar-Tech/node-red-contrib-matrix-chat/tree/master/examples#readme)
#### Extra functionality
Closes #21 - Can now access the matrix client globally so it can be used in function nodes (this way you are not limited by only the nodes we have published) - Added example for using the Matrix Client in a function to redact messages. This should be a great example to show people what is possible.
2021-09-03 22:24:02 +08:00
You are not limited by just the nodes we have created. If you turn on global access when setting up your Matrix Client you can access the client directly from any function node to write your own logic.

- Fixed not being able to disable e2ee - Session.logged_out events are now processed to display an error from the node (helps user figure out why their login failed). - Update description for matrix-server-config - Updated readme & examples

### End-to-End Encryption Notes
Move installing section of readme above usage
2021-09-03 22:28:27 +08:00
Currently, this module has no way of getting encryption keys from other devices on the same account. Therefore it is recommended you use the bot exclusively with Node-RED after it's creation. Failure to do so will lead to your bot being unable to receive messages from e2ee rooms it joined from another client. Shared secret registration makes this super easy since it returns a token and device ID.
- Fixed not being able to disable e2ee - Session.logged_out events are now processed to display an error from the node (helps user figure out why their login failed). - Update description for matrix-server-config - Updated readme & examples
2021-08-31 09:21:02 +08:00
- Update readme so it references new storage location
2021-09-03 01:09:48 +08:00
This module stores a folder in your Node-RED directory called `matrix-client-storage` and is it vital that you periodically back this up if you are using e2ee. This is where the client stores all the keys necessary to decrypt messages and if lost you will lose access to e2e rooms. If you move your client to another NR install make sure to migrate this folder as well (and do not let both the old and new client run at same time).
- Fixed not being able to disable e2ee - Session.logged_out events are now processed to display an error from the node (helps user figure out why their login failed). - Update description for matrix-server-config - Updated readme & examples
2021-08-31 09:21:02 +08:00
Want to contribute? Any help on getting the last pieces of e2ee figured out would be greatly appreciated :)
### Generate user
You will need a user to use this module. Luckily this module comes with a node that allows you to register users to a homeserver using the secret registration endpoint. This is perfect because it returns an `access_token` as well as a `device_id` which is exactly what we need.
[Click here](https://github.com/Skylar-Tech/node-red-contrib-matrix-chat/tree/master/examples#readme) to see how to generate a user using secret registration
