matrix-discord-bridge

A simple bridge between Matrix and Discord written in Python.

This repository contains two bridges:

• A puppeting appservice: The puppeting bridge written with minimal dependencies. Running this requires a self-hosted homeserver.

• A non-puppeting bridge: The non-puppeting plaintext bridge written with matrix-nio and discord.py, most people would want to use this one if running on heroku or similar and don't have their own server.

Check their READMEs for specific information.

What Works

• Puppeting (Appservice only, regular bridge only uses webhooks on Discord.)
• Attachments (Converted to URLs.)
• Typing Indicators (Per-user indicators on Appservice, otherwise sent as bot user.)
• Message redaction
• Replies
• Bridging multiple channels
• Discord emojis displayed as inline images
• Sending Discord emotes from Matrix (:emote_name:)
• Mentioning Discord users via partial username (@partialname)

TODO

• Handle cases where the webhook is messed with on the Discord side (Deleted/Edited by someone other than the bot).
• Use embeds on Discord side for replies.
• Unbridging.
