Chatroom-Syncer is a project to sync IM Chat Room to the public domain like IRC in the old days so that the information, context, and history of communication could be discovered, learned from, and referenced by others, anywhere, anytime.

  • GitHub
  • IRC
  • Telegram
  • Discord

Components and Flow

There are two processes in the system:

  • Chatroom Syncer, current code base in Python as the WeChaty Client and the bot
  • WeChaty Gateway, which leverages the Wechaty with UOS Wechat Client(also named as a puppet) to be called by the Chatroom Syncer due to WebChaty is not a native Python library, and the Wechaty Gateway is a gRPC server to manipulate and watch WeChat the puppet.

Thus, we need to start the WeChaty Gateway before the Chatroom Syncer.

Run

Before running, we need follow prerequisites:

  • Configure WeChat Group Names and Slack Channel Names in config.yaml, they should exist in both WeChat and Slack.
  • Configure Slack API Token in .env.
Run with Docker

Run it in background:

cp config-example.yaml config.yaml
cp env-example .env
docker-compose up -d

Check both containers are Up:

docker-compose ps

In case there are any Exit 0 containers, give another try of starting up:

docker-compose up -d

Scan the QR code with your WeChat App, and you are ready to go!

docker logs chatroom-syncer_chatroom-syncer_1 2>/dev/null | grep -v Wechaty

Stop it:

docker-compose down
Run from host

Run Webchaty gateway first:

export token="iwonttellyou"
docker run -d \
    --name=wechaty-gateway \
    --net=bridge \
    -p 9009:9009 \
    -e WECHATY_PUPPET_SERVICE_TOKEN="$token" \
    -v /wechaty_data:/wechaty/data \
    --restart=unless-stopped weygu/wechaty-gateway:latest

Run Chatroom-Syncer:

# install it
python3 -m pip install chatroom-syncer
# create config.yaml and change it
cp config-example.yaml config.yaml

# put tokens for sink according to your config.yaml
# i.e. if both slack and github discussion sinks were enabled
# we need token to send message to slack and github discussion
# as follow:
export SLACK_BOT_TOKEN="xoxb-1234567890-1234567890-1234567890-1234567890"
export GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

# run it
python3 -m chatroom_syncer
