Configuration
Synapse Admin could be configured using the following ways (both are optional, and both could be used together):
- By providing the
config.json
file alongside with the Synapse Admin deployment, example: admin.etke.cc/config.json - By providing configuration under the
cc.etke.synapse-admin
key in the/.well-known/matrix/client
file, example: demo.etke.host/.well-known/matrix/client
In case you are an etke.cc customer,
or use spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy,
or etkecc/ansible,
configuration will be automatically added to the /.well-known/matrix/client
file.
Why /.well-known/matrix/client
?
Because any instance of Synapse Admin will automatically pick up the configuration from the homeserver.
Common use case when you have a Synapse server running, but don't want (or can't) deploy Synapse Admin alongside with it.
In this case, you could provide the configuration in the /.well-known/matrix/client
file,
and any Synapse Admin instance (e.g., admin.etke.cc will pick it up.
Another common case is when you have multiple Synapse servers running and want to use a single Synapse Admin instance to manage them all.
In this case, you could provide the configuration in the /.well-known/matrix/client
file for each of the servers.
Configuration options
restrictBaseUrl
- restrictBaseUrl restricts the Synapse Admin instance to work only with specific homeserver(-s). It accepts both a string and an array of strings. The homeserver URL should be the actual homeserver URL, and not the delegated one. Example:https://matrix.example.com
orhttps://synapse.example.net
More detailsasManagedUsers
- protect system user accounts managed by appservices (such as bridges) / system (such as bots) from accidental changes. By defining a list of MXID regex patterns, you can protect these accounts from accidental changes. Example:^@baibot:example\\.com$
,^@slackbot:example\\.com$
,^@slack_[a-zA-Z0-9\\-]+:example\\.com$
,^@telegrambot:example\\.com$
,^@telegram_[a-zA-Z0-9]+:example\\.com$
More detailsmenu
- add custom menu items to the main menu (sidebar) by providing amenu
array in the config. Eachmenu
item can contain the following fields:label
(required): The text to display in the menu.icon
(optional): The icon to display next to the label, one of the src/utils/icons.ts icons, otherwise a default icon will be used.url
(required): The URL to navigate to when the menu item is clicked. More details
