Write a blog post on bridging all the rooms- matrix, xmpp, telegram, IRC

RD Ravi Dwivedi Public Seen by 59

Recently, I helped LibreOffice India to bridge all the rooms on Matrix, XMPP, Telegram, IRC and I would like to document the method and steps that worked for me.

Step 1: Create a public non-encrypted matrix room.

Step 2: Create a public telegram channel.

Step 3: Use t2bot https://t2bot.io/telegram/ to bridge matrix with telegram

Step 4: Create an IRC channel (in our case, it was created on libera.chat)

Step 5: join the IRC channel and OP yourself (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcTeam/OperatorGuide)

Step 6: In the matrix room, go to widgets section and in the integrations section -> IRC -> fill liberachat and other details of the IRC channel.

Step 7: Accept the request on IRC side (an OP can do that)

Step 8: Use https://irc.cheogram.com/ to join from xmpp side.

https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge matterbridge is an interesting project that helps with this but you need to self hosted iirc

Are either of these methods automatable in a self-hosted scenario? The libreserver project has such bridging on its todo list.
