riot-web 1.6.0: cannot set own integrations server

[cy8aer]

Description

In former versions it was simple to set an own (Dimension) integrations server in
resources/webapp/config.js. With Version 1.6.0 we have have resources/webapp.asar which IMHO is not editable anymore. You cannot change the configuration in the web interface either (only switch on/off of scalar.vector.im is possible.

• Platform: web (in-browser) or desktop? Official debian riot-desktop

For the desktop app:

• OS: Linux Debian Testing
• Version: 1.6.0

matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#1957 describes the various ways that integration managers can be defined. You shouldn't have ever needed to modify the build output to change integration managers.

The config.md docs in this repo have more information as well.

[cy8aer]

1. .well-known: riot-desktop does not access .well-known/matrix/client or server.
2. .well-known is also not accessed after new login
3. config.json is simply not used anymore (config.md is not up to date with 1.6.0)

So the mimikry is IMHO borked with 1.6.0

[turt2live]

The .well-known is called every 8 hours after startup, including at startup, for the sole reason of making sure to capture integration manager changes.

How is the config wrong?

[cy8aer]

Ok, then I need to wait > 8 hours with running Client.

config wrong: When I installed riot-desktop 1.6.0 over riot-web 1.5.2 config.js was deleted. After restoring config.js it is not used anymore (otherwise I the integrations server setup would be used). So config.md describes a file which is not used anymore.

[turt2live]

The docs do not mention a config.js - they mention a config.json.

Ok, then I need to wait > 8 hours with running Client.

It should work on startup. If it doesn't, check the console logs for indications of failure.

[cy8aer]

I meant config.json of course, sorry.

[turt2live]

for the config issue, it'd be good to troubleshoot in #riot-web:matrix.org instead as the config features should still work.

[cy8aer]

Yep, swapping to the room. Thank you for now...

Hello.
Before version 1.6.0 I change config.json on riot desktop to use my self-host matrix-dimension.
But in 1.6.0 version there is no config.json file to edit integration server and add matrix-dimension server as an integration server.
Now, what gonna I do?
I have my homeserver and matrix-dimension.

You were editing an internal config file. See docs https://github.com/vector-im/riot-desktop/blob/develop/README.md#user-specified-configjson

[aliyousefiaan]

Yep, but I don't want to build or compile it.
Is there any other way?

[t3chguy]

Read the link I sent you. It tells you where to create a config.json file.

[aliyousefiaan]

Yep, I got it.
Thanks a lot.
