Matrix-Telegram bridge
communicationCurrent version: 0.15.1~ynh2
Potential alternative to: Telegram
A puppeting bridge between Matrix and Telegram packaged as a YunoHost service. Messages, notifications (and sometimes media) are bridged between a Telegram user and a Matrix user. Currently the Matrix user can NOT invite other Matrix user in a bridged Telegram room, so only someone with a Telegram account can participate to Telegram group conversations. The "Mautrix-Telegram" bridge is a Synapse App Service and relies on postgresql. Therefore, Synapse for YunoHost should be installed beforehand.
This app is only compatible with these specific architectures: amd64, arm64, armhf
Important infos before installing
Multi-user support
- Bot users are not related to Yunohost users. Any Matrix account or Synapse server autorized in the configuration of the bridge can invite/use the bot.
- The Telegram bot is a local Matrix-Synapse user, but accessible through federation (synapse public or private).
- Several Telegram and Matrix users can be bridged with one bridge, each user has its own bot administration room.
- If several bot users are in a same Telegram group, only one Matrix room will be created by the bridge.

Multi-instance support
- Multi-instance installation should work. Several bridge instances could be installed for one Matrix-Synapse instance so that one Matrix user can bridge several Telegram accounts.
- Several bridge instances could be installed for each Matrix-Synapse instance to benefit from it. But one bridge can be used by users from several Matrix-Synapse instances.
