issue generating slack-registration.yaml

[Jasper-Ben]

Issue

When running the generating part of the install process the program prompts for user's localpart but exits without an error and without generating the registration.yaml after I provide this information. I am not sure if this is due to a mistake in the setup, or if this is a bug. Thus, attached my setup. Any help would be much appreciated!

Setup

config.json

URL uses Dockers local DNS system.

{
  "slack": [{
    "team_name": "XYZ",
    "user_access_token": "abcd",
    "notify": "only_active"
  }],
  "registrationPath": "slack-registration.yaml",
  "port": 8090,
  "bridge": {
    "homeserverUrl":"http://matrix-synapse:8008",
    "domain": "matrix-synapse",
    "registration": "slack-registration.yaml"
  }
}

Dockerfile

FROM node:12.4-alpine
RUN apk --no-cache add git \
  && git clone https://github.com/matrix-hacks/matrix-puppet-slack.git /app \
  && cd /app \
  && npm install
WORKDIR /app
CMD node index.js

Registration

For the registration conf generating process I use following command after building docker_image:

docker run --expose 8090 --name matrix-puppet-slack -it --rm --network=matrix-synapse_matrix-bridges -v /opt/matrix-synapse/data/matrix-puppet-slack/config.json:/app/config.json:ro docker_image node index.js -r -u "http://matrix-puppet-slack:8090"

Things tried so far

• use external domain in config file
• use combination of external and internal in homeserverUrl and Domain
• checked if auth token works
• checked that matrix-puppet-slack can access matrix-synapse

I was able to check out 1.12, create the registration file. 1.12 wasn't working for my synapse 1.0 from Debian's buster backports, so I then checked out master, re-installed node stuff and then ran successfully.

Should be fixed with #90

Doesn't work for me either. I use the default configuration from: https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/ and in the documentation of matrix-puppet-slack the naming is unclear to me. While readme.md speaks about http://your-bridge-server:8090, config.sample.json uses https://synapse.keyvan.pw.

None of these are standard matrix terminology, I can offer synapse, mxisd, exim-relay, coturn, riot and dimension. Which of these do you mean?

Currently node index.js -r -u "http://127.0.0.1:8091" (tried a bunch of different domains and IPs, all the same) yields:

module.js:675
    throw err;
    ^

Was facing same issue with you when I tried to generate slack-registration.yaml file using this code node index.js -r -u "http://your-bridge-server:8090".

Try use this instead, npm start -- -r -c config.yaml -u "http://your-bridge-server:8090". You should see the log in success message on the cli after enter your localpart and password. This works fine for me anyhow. Good luck.
