Matrix public archive
NB: This project is very much a work-in-progress (WIP)! Undocumented config/secrets, using a draft branch of Hydrogen, etc.
In the vein of feature parity with
Gitter, the goal is to make a
public archive site for world_readable
Matrix rooms like Gitter's archives
which search engines can index and keep all of the content accessible/available.
There is already https://view.matrix.org/
(https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-static) but there is some desire to make
something with more Element-feeling polish and loading faster (avoid the slow
502's errors that are frequent on view.matrix.org
).
Plan summary
The plan is to server-side render (SSR) the
Hydrogen Matrix client on a Node.js
server (since both use JavaScript) and serve pages on the fly (probably with
some Cloudflare caching on top) when someone requests
/archives/${year}/${month}/${day}
. To fetch the events for a given day/time,
we will use MSC3030's
/timestamp_to_event
endpoint to jump to a given day in the timeline and fetch
the messages from a Matrix homeserver.
Re-using Hydrogen gets us pretty and native(to Element) looking styles and keeps the maintenance burden of supporting more event types in Hydrogen.
Prerequisites
- Node.js v16
- We only need v16 because it includes
require('crypto').webcrypto.subtle
for Matrix encryption (olm) which can't be disabled in Hydrogen yet.
- We only need v16 because it includes
