# Obtaining the LINE Chrome extension
|
|
For all modes of deploying the bridge, it is first required to manually download a .crx or .zip file of the [LINE Chrome extension](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/line/ophjlpahpchlmihnnnihgmmeilfjmjjc) (current version: 2.5.0).
|
|
|
|
The recommended way of doing this is to use the [CRX Extractor/Downloader](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/crx-extractordownloader/ajkhmmldknmfjnmeedkbkkojgobmljda) extension for Chrome/Chromium:
|
|
|
|
1. Install that extension in a Chrome/Chromium instance of your choice
|
|
1. Navigate to the Web Store page for the LINE extension
|
|
1. Click the "CRX" button in the browser toolbar
|
|
1. Select "Download as CRX" or "Download as ZIP"
|
|
|
|
The downloaded .crx/.zip can then be extracted with `unzip` or with a GUI tool like GNOME File Roller.
|
|
|
|
To install updated versions of the LINE extension, simply download the .crx/.zip of the latest version of the extension, and extract it in the same location as for initial setup.
|
|
|
|
# Manual setup
|
|
These instructions describe how to install and run the bridge manually from a clone of this repository.
|
|
|
|
## Minimum requirements
|
|
* Python 3.7
|
|
* Node 14
|
|
* yarn 1.22.x (from either your distribution or `npm`)
|
|
* postgresql 11
|
|
* A LINE account on a smartphone (Android or iOS)
|
|
|
|
## Optional requirements
|
|
* `xvfb-run` for easily running the Puppeteer module in a background X server
|
|
* `xdotool` for keeping the Puppeteer module responsive when run in a background X server (see [puppet/README.md](puppet/README.md))
|
|
* Native dependencies for [end-to-bridge](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/end-to-bridge-encryption.html): https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/python/optional-dependencies.html#all-python-bridges
|
|
|
|
## Initial setup
|
|
|
|
### Puppeteer module
|
|
1. Extract the downloaded .crx/.zip of the LINE Chrome extension to `puppet/extension_files`
|
|
1. `cd` to the `puppet` directory and run `yarn --production`
|
|
1. Copy `puppet/example-config.json` to `puppet/config.json`
|
|
1. If your system's CPU architecture is not x86\_64/amd64, the version of Chromium bundled with Puppeteer will not work, and the following additional steps are required:
|
|
1. Install Chrome/Chromium from your distribution's package manager
|
|
1. Edit `puppet/package.json` to specify the version of Puppeteer that is compatible with the version of Chrome/Chromium that you just installed, and rerun `yarn --production` (see [Puppeteer documentation](https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/blob/main/docs/api.md) for a map of Puppeteer/Chromium compatibility)
|
|
1. Set `executable_path` in `puppet/config.json` to the path to the installed Chrome/Chromium binary
|
|
1. Edit `puppet/config.json` with desired settings (see [puppet/README.md](puppet/README.md) for details)
|
|
|
|
### Bridge module
|
|
1. `cd` to the repository root and create a Python virtual environment with `python3 -m venv .venv`, and enter it with `source .venv/bin/activate`
|
|
1. Install Python requirements:
|
|
* `pip install -Ur requirements.txt` for base functionality
|
|
* `pip install -Ur optional-requirements.txt` for [end-to-bridge](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/end-to-bridge-encryption.html) encryption and metrics
|
|
* Note that end-to-bridge encryption requires some native dependencies. For details, see https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/python/optional-dependencies.html#all-python-bridges
|
|
1. Copy `matrix_puppeteer_line/example-config.yaml` to `config.yaml`, and update it with the proper settings to connect to your homeserver
|
|
* In particular, be sure to set the `puppeteer.connection` settings to use the socket you chose in `puppet/config.json`
|
|
1. Run `python -m matrix_puppeteer_line -g` to generate an appservice registration file, and update your homeserver configuration to accept it
|
|
|
|
## Running manually
|
|
1. In the `puppet` directory, launch the Puppeteer module with `yarn start` or `node src/main.js`
|
|
1. In the project root directory, run the bridge module with `python -m matrix_puppeteer_line`
|
|
1. Start a chat with the bot, and use one of the `login-email` or `login-qr` commands to sync your LINE account
|
|
* Note that on first use, you must enter a verification code on a smartphone version of LINE in order for the login to complete
|
|
|
|
### Running the Puppeteer module headless
|
|
Puppeteer cannot be run in headless mode when using Chrome/Chromium with extensions (including the LINE extension).
|
|
|
|
As a workaround, it may be run in a background X server. This allows running the Puppeteer module on a GUI-less server.
|
|
|
|
An easy way to do so is to install `xvfb` from your distribution, and run the Puppeteer module with `xvfb-run yarn start`.
|
|
|
|
## systemd
|
|
The [systemd](systemd) directory provides sample service unit configuration files for running the bridge & Puppeteer modules:
|
|
|
|
* `matrix-puppeteer-line.service` for the bridge module
|
|
* `matrix-puppeteer-line-chrome.service` for the Puppeteer module
|
|
|
|
To use them as-is, follow these steps after [initial setup](#initial-setup):
|
|
|
|
1. Install `xfvb-run`, ideally from your distribution
|
|
1. Place/link your clone of this repository in `/opt/matrix-puppeteer-line`
|
|
* If moving your repo directory after having already created a Python virtual environment for the bridge module, re-create the virtual environment after moving to ensure its paths are up-to-date
|
|
* Alternatively, clone it to `/opt/matrix-puppeteer-line` in the first place
|
|
1. Install the services as either system or user units
|
|
* To install as system units:
|
|
1. Copy/link the service files to a directory in the system unit search path, such as `/etc/systemd/system/`
|
|
1. Create the services' configuration directory with `sudo mkdir /etc/matrix-puppeteer-line`
|
|
1. RECOMMENDED: Create the `matrix-puppeteer-line` user on your system with `adduser` or an equivalent command, then uncomment the `User` and `Group` lines in the service files
|
|
* To install as user units:
|
|
1. Copy/link the service files to a directory in the user unit search path, such as `~/.config/systemd/user`
|
|
1. Create the services' configuration directory with `mkdir $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/matrix-puppeteer-line`
|
|
1. Copy the bridge & Puppeteer module configuration files to the services' configuration directory as `config.yaml` and `puppet-config.json`, respectively
|
|
1. Start the services now and on every boot boot with `[sudo] systemd [--user] enable --now matrix-puppeteer-line{,-chrome}`
|
|
|
|
Note that stopping/restarting the bridge module service `matrix-puppeteer-line.service` does not affect the Puppeteer module service `matrix-puppeteer-line-chrome.service`, but stopping/restarting the latter will also stop/restart the former.
|
|
|
|
Thus, to shut down the bridge entirely, either stop `matrix-puppeteer-line-chrome.service`, or stop both services at once.
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading
|
|
Simply `git pull` or `git rebase` the latest changes, and rerun any installation commands (`yarn --production`, `pip install -Ur ...`).
|
|
|
|
# Docker
|
|
These instructions describe how to run the bridge with Docker containers.
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
* Any `docker` commands mentioned below need to be run with `sudo` unless you have configured your system otherwise. See [Docker docs](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/linux-postinstall/) for details.
|
|
* All configuration files created by the Docker containers will be `chown`ed to UID/GID 1337. Use `sudo` access on the host to edit them.
|
|
* The `docker` commands below mount the working directory as `/data`, so make sure you always run them in the correct directory.
|
|
|
|
## Limitations
|
|
* Images must be built manually for now. It is planned for there to be prebuilt images available to pull.
|
|
* amd64/x86\_64 is the only architecture the current Dockerfiles have been tested with. For other architectures, it is necessary to change the base image of `puppet/Dockerfile` to one that provides Chrome/Chromium for your architecture.
|
|
|
|
## Initial setup
|
|
1. `cd` to the directory where you cloned this repository
|
|
1. Ensure that the repository root and `puppet` directories are writable by UID/GID 1337. A coarse way to achieve this is with `chmod o+w . puppet`
|
|
1. Extract the downloaded .crx/.zip of the LINE Chrome extension to `puppet/extension_files`
|
|
1. `cd` to the `puppet` directory, and build the image for the Puppeteer module with `docker build . -t matrix-puppeteer-line-chrome`
|
|
1. Run a container for the Puppeteer module for the first time, so it can create a config file for you: `docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/data:z matrix-puppeteer-line-chrome`
|
|
1. Update the config to your liking, but leave the `"executable_path"` setting as-is (unless you need to use a version of Chrome/Chromium from the host or another container)
|
|
1. Run the Puppeteer module with `docker run --restart unless-stopped -v $(pwd):/data:z matrix-puppeteer-line-chrome`
|
|
1. Open a new shell, since the prior `docker run` command runs in the foreground (unless `-d` is used)
|
|
1. `cd` to the repository root, and build the image for the bridge module with `docker build . -t matrix-puppeteer-line`
|
|
1. Run a container for the bridge module for the first time, so it can create a config file for you: `docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/data:z matrix-puppeteer-line`
|
|
1. Update the config to your liking. You'll at least need to change the homeserver settings, appservice address and permissions, as well as the socket connection to the Puppeteer module
|
|
* Note that the Puppeteer module container's `/data/` directory is accessible in the bridge module's container at `/data/puppet/`
|
|
* Thus, if the Puppeteer module is configured to use a unix socket at `/data/<sock_name>`, the bridge module's config must set `puppeteer.connection.path: /data/puppet/<sockname>`
|
|
1. Generate the appservice registration by running the container again, and update your homeserver configuration to accept it
|
|
1. Run the bridge module with `docker run --restart unless-stopped -v $(pwd):/data:z matrix-puppeteer-line`
|
|
* Additionally, you should either add the bridge to the same Docker network as your homeserver and database with `--network=<name>` (when they are running in Docker), or expose the correct port(s) with `-p <port>:<port>` or `--network=host` (when they are running outside Docker).
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading
|
|
Simply `git pull` or `git rebase` the latest changes, rerun all `docker build` commands, then run new containers for the freshly-built images.
