Synapse-admin
This is the webgui for Synapse.
Installation can be done in 3 ways (see Github), we'll pick the easiest one: using the precompiled tar.
Unpack it under /var/www, link synapse-admin to the directory that the
archive creates. This is to make sure you can easily unpack a newer version,
prepare that, and then change the symlink.
# ls -l /var/www
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 4 18:05 html
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Nov 18 13:24 synapse-admin -> synapse-admin-0.10.3
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Nov 18 15:54 synapse-admin-0.10.3
We use 0.10.3, but point nginx to '/var/www/synapse-admin'. Configuring nginx is fairly straightforward, see here.
You should probably restrict Synapse-Admin to your own Synapse-server, instead
of letting users fill in whatever they want. Do this by adding this bit to
config.json. In our config we've moved that file to
/etc/synapse-admin and link to that from /var/www/synapse-admin.
