This playbook can install the cinny Matrix web client for you.
Cinny is a web client focusing primarily on simple, elegant and secure interface. It can be installed alongside or instead of Element.
To enable Cinny, add the following configuration to your inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml file:
matrix_client_cinny_enabled: trueBy default, this playbook installs Cinny on the cinny. subdomain (cinny.example.com) and requires you to adjust your DNS records.
By tweaking the matrix_client_cinny_hostname and matrix_client_cinny_path_prefix variables, you can easily make the service available at a different hostname and/or path than the default one.
Example additional configuration for your inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml file:
# Switch to the domain used for Matrix services (`matrix.example.com`),
# so we won't need to add additional DNS records for Cinny.
matrix_client_cinny_hostname: "{{ matrix_server_fqn_matrix }}"
# Expose under the /cinny subpath
matrix_client_cinny_path_prefix: /cinnyOnce you've decided on the domain and path, you may need to adjust your DNS records to point the Cinny domain to the Matrix server.
By default, you will need to create a CNAME record for cinny. See Configuring DNS for details about DNS changes.
If you've decided to reuse the matrix. domain, you won't need to do any extra DNS configuration.
After configuring the playbook and potentially adjusting your DNS records, run the installation command: just install-all or just setup-all
