Watch: Drupal Meets Matrix

Drupal Meets Matrix on Freelock’s YouTube channel — John Locke’s ongoing video series, building the integration in public.

Episode 1: Setting Up the Matrix API · Series introduction and context

Drupal communities and the Groups Initiative

• Groups Initiative — plans for Drupal’s community spaces.
• Matrix integration for the Groups Initiative — the chat layer in that larger effort.

The Drupal building blocks

• Matrix API — Client API operations and incoming event infrastructure.
• Matrix API Identity — linked accounts and protected OIDC identities.
• Matrix API Application Server — Synapse pushes and scoped send-as transport; this demo uses unpublished development changes.
• Matrix API Entity — entity/event mapping and synchronization architecture; destination UI is still being explored.
• Matrix Recipes — reusable integration setup.
• ECA — events, conditions, and actions that express the integration rules.
• Advanced Comment Threads — the Drupal reading and reply experience.
• Drupal Canvas — editable pages and this presentation.
• Simple OAuth and Key — authentication and credential storage.

The Matrix side

• Matrix.org — the open communication protocol and ecosystem.
• Application Service specification — the protocol connecting Synapse to Drupal.
• Synapse documentation — the homeserver.
• Matrix Authentication Service — OIDC sign-in and account provisioning.
• Element — another interface to the same conversations.
