Mattermost is a messaging client that offers persistent storage of messages and file sharing. It also allows integration of audio, video, images, gifs, code snippets into messages as well. It also allows audio and video calls through WebRTC. If IRC was raw text, Mattermost would be its rich text counterpart. Mattermost also works with all major operating systems and is also available as a mobile app and as a webpage. Mattermost can also bridge to IRC, which is a separate topic. We'll cover the basic configuration of Mattermost with MySQL, postfix, NGINX and SSL certificates obtained with Letsencrypt.
Mattermost at the moment doesn't seem to support UNIX sockets. While configuring postfix (for user email verification) isn't required in preview mode, it's recommended if you're running Mattermost in production Please see http://www.funtoo.org/Package:Postfix on how to configure Postfix to use ports instead of UNIX sockets.
Please also see the article on NGINX on how to install it http://www.funtoo.org/Package:Nginx and see the article on how to install mysql http://www.funtoo.org/Package:MySQL
We'll assume Mattermost, Postfix, NGINX and MySQL are running on the same server. A separate guide on configuring Mattermost to run on multiple servers will be written at a certain point in the future. We'll assume the domain for Mattermost is chat.example.com, and we're installing Mattermost in /opt/mattermost.
We'll also assume you correctly obtained the SSL certificates for your website with Package:App-crypt/certbot and configured NGINX to use them.
