# mx-puppet-vk
This is a Matrix <-> VK bridge based on [mx-puppet-bridge](https://github.com/Sorunome/mx-puppet-bridge) and [VK-IO](https://github.com/negezor/vk-io).

It is in early development. Right now it logs message data when log level includes "info" level.

Relay mode works too, but we don't recommend it.

## Installation
```bash
git pull https://github.com/innereq/mx-puppet-vk
npm install
npm run build
```
Next copy the `sample.config.yaml` to `config.yaml`, edit it and then run `npm run start -- -r` to generate a registration file.
Register that one with synapse and start the bridge with `npm run start`.

## Usage
1. Get VK community token (Just open the "Manage community" tab, go to "API usage" tab and click "Create token")
2. Activate Bots Long Poll API ("Manage community" → "API usage" → "Bots Long Poll API") and choose the latest API version. Make sure that under event types all message-realted events are turned on.
3. Activate an option to message your community. To allow group chats, activate it under bot capabilities.
4. On matrix, contact `@_vk_puppet_bot:your.domain` and type `link <vk token>`
5. Now, if someone contacts your community, you will be invited to the corresponding room on Matrix.

Plese note: when community is invited to the group chat as a bot, make sure it has message access. Only chat admins can change bot permissions.

Bridge doesn't handle being kicked from chat yet.
