Matrix room gatekeeper bot for the unofficial Unimore space

Loki Bot

Gatekeeper bot for the Unimore Informatica unofficial Matrix space

[ Website | PyPI ]

TIP: You may be looking for its predecessor, Thor Bot.

Functionality

This bot monitors a pre-configured public Matrix space for join events, sending a welcome message to every new joiner.

The welcome message contains a link, which when clicked starts the user verification process:

1. a page describing the bot is opened, and it allows users to login with a pre-configured OpenID Connect Identity Provider;
2. the claims of the OIDC IdP are verified, and the user's email address is checked to verify that its domain matches a pre-configured RegEx with specific email requirements;
3. if the email address fullfils all the requirements, an invitation to a different, pre-configured private Matrix space is sent to the user.

Additionally, the bot monitors for leave events from both spaces, deleting user data if no longer needed to protect the user's privacy.
