@ -4,33 +4,9 @@ The playbook can install and configure [buscarron](https://github.com/etkecc/bus
Buscarron is bot that receives HTTP POST submissions of web forms and forwards them to a Matrix room.
## Decide on a domain and path
By default, Buscarron is configured to use its own dedicated domain (`buscarron.example.com`) and requires you to [adjust your DNS records](#adjusting-dns-records).
You can override the domain and path like this:
```yaml
# Switch to the domain used for Matrix services (`matrix.example.com`),
# so we won't need to add additional DNS records for Buscarron.
matrix_bot_buscarron_hostname: "{{ matrix_server_fqn_matrix }}"
# Expose under the /buscarron subpath
matrix_bot_buscarron_path_prefix: /buscarron
```
## Adjusting DNS records
Once you've decided on the domain and path, **you may need to adjust your DNS** records to point the Buscarron domain to the Matrix server.
If you've decided to reuse the `matrix.` domain, you won't need to do any extra DNS configuration.
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
Add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
To enable Buscarron, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
```yaml
matrix_bot_buscarron_enabled: true

### Adjusting the Buscarron URL
By default, this playbook installs Buscarron on the `buscarron.` subdomain (`buscarron.example.com`) and requires you to [adjust your DNS records](#adjusting-dns-records).
By tweaking the `matrix_bot_buscarron_hostname` and `matrix_bot_buscarron_path_prefix` variables, you can easily make the service available at a **different hostname and/or path** than the default one.
Example additional configuration for your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
```yaml
# Switch to the domain used for Matrix services (`matrix.example.com`),
# so we won't need to add additional DNS records for Buscarron.
matrix_bot_buscarron_hostname: "{{ matrix_server_fqn_matrix }}"
# Expose under the /buscarron subpath
matrix_bot_buscarron_path_prefix: /buscarron
```
## Adjusting DNS records
Once you've decided on the domain and path, **you may need to adjust your DNS** records to point the Buscarron domain to the Matrix server.
By default, you will need to create a CNAME record for `buscarron`. See [Configuring DNS](configuring-dns.md) for details about DNS changes.
If you've decided to reuse the `matrix.` domain, you won't need to do any extra DNS configuration.
