fetch-matrix-access-token
Why
The access token from Element can not be used for a different app (it seems). With this simple script you can retrieve the access token and then use it for a different app since this script won't create any encryption.
Requirements
- The matrix server, where the account is located, needs password-login enabled
- local environment requires
nodejs
,yarn
andnvm
Installation & setup
yarn install
nvm use
cp config.js.example config.js
- edit the
config.js
Fetching the key
yarn start
- The script will print the access token.
Credits
This script is based on snippets from the documentation of matrix-bot-sdk
