Related to: - https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/pull/3470 - https://github.com/hifi/heisenbridge/releases/tag/v1.15.0 During testing, it appears that Heisenbridge generated media URLs that look like this: `{media_url}/_matrix/media/v3/download/DOMAIN/FILE_ID/FILE_NAME`. This seems off. We were expecting `{media_url}/_heisenbridge/media/something` (e.g. `https://matrix.DOMAIN/heisenbridge/_heisenbridge/media/something`, leading to its own media proxy), but Heisenbridge still seems to be generating URLs destined for the homeserver's Media API. Until we figure out why that is, `media_url` remains pointed to the homeserver URL (just like before), so that the bot can continue operating like before.

Setting up Heisenbridge (optional)
Note: bridging to IRC can also happen via the matrix-appservice-irc bridge supported by the playbook.
The playbook can install and configure Heisenbridge - the bouncer-style IRC bridge for you.
See the project's README to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you. You can also take a look at this demonstration video.
Configuration
Below are the common configuration options that you may want to set, exhaustive list is in the bridge's defaults var file.
At a minimum, you only need to enable the bridge to get it up and running (inventory/host_vars/matrix.DOMAIN/vars.yml):
matrix_heisenbridge_enabled: true
# set owner (optional)
matrix_heisenbridge_owner: "@you:your-homeserver"
# to enable identd on host port 113/TCP (optional)
matrix_heisenbridge_identd_enabled: true
By default, Heisenbrdige would be exposed on the Matrix domain (matrix.DOMAIN, as specified in matrix_server_fqn_matrix) under the /heisenbridge path prefix. It would handle media requests there (see the release notes for Heisenbridge v1.15.0).
That's it! A registration file is automatically generated during the setup phase.
Setting the owner is optional as the first local user to DM @heisenbridge:your-homeserver will be made the owner.
If you are not using a local user you must set it as otherwise you can't DM it at all.
Usage
After the bridge is successfully running just DM @heisenbridge:your-homeserver to start setting it up.
Help is available for all commands with the -h switch.
If the bridge ignores you and a DM is not accepted then the owner setting may be wrong.
