Synapse is a homeserver for the Matrix protocol
Prepare your embassyOS build environment. In this example we are using Ubuntu 20.04.
- Install docker
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o- | bash
sudo usermod -aG docker "$USER"
exec sudo su -l $USER
- Set buildx as the default builder
docker buildx install
docker buildx create --use
- Enable cross-arch emulated builds in docker
docker run --privileged --rm linuxkit/binfmt:v0.8
- Install yq
sudo snap install yq
- Install deno
sudo snap install deno
- Install essentials build packages
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential openssl libssl-dev libc6-dev clang libclang-dev ca-certificates
- Install Rust
curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
# Choose nr 1 (default install)
source $HOME/.cargo/env
- Build and install embassy-sdk
cd ~/ && git clone --recursive https://github.com/Start9Labs/embassy-os.git
cd embassy-os/backend/
./install-sdk.sh
embassy-sdk init
Now you are ready to build your Synapse service
Clone the Synapse wrapper locally. Note the submodule link to the original project.
git clone https://github.com/Start9Labs/synapse-wrapper.git
cd synapse-wrapper
git submodule update --init --recursive
To build the Synapse service, run the following commands:
make
Run the following commands to determine successful install:
ℹ️ Change embassy-server-name.local to your Embassy address
embassy-cli auth login
#Enter your embassy password
embassy-cli --host https://embassy-server-name.local package install synapse.s9pk
Tip: You can also install the ghost.s9pk using Sideload Service under the System > MANAGE section.
Go to your Embassy Services page, select Synapse, configure and start the service.
Done!
