## 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 WhatsApp bot is a local Matrix-Synapse user, but accessible through federation (synapse public or private). * Several WhatsApp 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 WhatsApp group, only one Matrix room will be created by the bridge. * See https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/synapse_ynh#multi-users-support ## Limitations * Audio/Video calls are not bridged yet. * If WhatsApp loses connection, e.g. the phone is set in flight mode or push notifications are deactivated, the bot has sometimes to be restarted manually by sending `!wa reconnnect` in the Matrix administration room. * WhatsApp needs to get presence from the official app every two weeks at least, so bridge will send a reminder in the administration room. ## Additional information * It is recommended to install WhatsApp on a virtual android running on a server, see [upstream wiki Android-VM-Setup page](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/go/whatsapp/android-vm-setup.html) **More information on the documentation page:** https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/go/whatsapp/index.html * To test communication between the App Service and Matrix-Synapse on a VM (e.g. with domain name: synapse.vm), you must install a certificate: ``` echo | openssl s_client -showcerts -servername synapse.vm -connect synapse.vm:443 2>/dev/null | awk '/-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----/, /-----END CERTIFICATE-----/' >> /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/synapse.vm.crt update-ca-certificates ``` ## Miscellaneous information * Matrix room (matrix bridges in YunoHost): #mautrix_yunohost:matrix.fdn.fr * Matrix room (upstream app): #whatsapp:maunium.net In case you need to upload your logs somewhere, be aware that they contain your contacts and your phone numbers. Strip them out with: ``| sed -r 's/[0-9]{10,}/📞/g' `` * "Mautrix-WhatsApp" bridge is based on the [Rhymen/go-whatsapp](https://github.com/Rhymen/go-whatsapp) implementation of the [sigalor/whatsapp-web-reveng](https://github.com/sigalor/whatsapp-web-reveng) project.
