Micropub AS

Pre-requisites

• You need to have a home server installed and running.

Setup

• Download the source code: git clone https://github.com/Kegsay/matrix-as-micropub.git
• Install the app:

• Copy config.sample.yaml and edit the URL and token fields. The tokens can be anything you want.
• Generate a registration file by typing node app -c your.config.file.yaml --generate-registration
• Make your home server aware of the registration file (setting app_service_config_files in homeserver.yaml to the path of the registration file, remember it's a list so use ["file/path.yaml"])
