Exposing Mattermost

Warning

Experimental Feature

Description

The goal of this feature is to be able for users to use Mattermost embedded in XiVO UC/CC solutions.

Expose Mattermost from docker configuration
Have a XiVO theme installed automatically
Be able to be auto-logged Cti users inside Mattermost once connected to UC Assistant or Switchboard
Be able to receive chat messages on any chat client connected (UC or Mattermost)

To enable the access to embedded Mattermost you need to have as prerequisite xivo-chat-backend package installed (see Chat Backend).

Allow port 8000 to be exposed in docker

Edit your docker compose file (/etc/docker/compose/docker-xivo-chat-backend.yml) and change the configuration of the mattermost container:
```
mattermost:
  [...]
  ports:
  - 8000:8000
  [...]
```
Launch xivocc-dcomp up -d to make the port accessible
Run script /var/lib/xivo-chat-backend/scripts/xivo-mattermost-theme-install.sh to install XiVO theme for users
(Option) You may want to disable Chat in UC assistant if not needed anymore - see Disabling chat in UC Assistant and Switchboard section

The Mattermost is then available http://xivo_uc:8000.

Note

You can can connect as admin with associated password found in /etc/docker/compose/custom.env file.

Currently there is no integration at all between XiVO users and Mattermost, if you want to use Mattermost as a chat solution, it is recommended to create your own team and create different users in Mattermost.
