Configuration¶
Configuration for bots is stored in a state event of type
me.merovingian.config and state key equal to the string “for:”1
followed by the Matrix ID of the bot to be configured. For example, if the bot
had a Matrix ID of @bot:example.com, then the state key would be
for:@bot:example.com.
The exact contents of the configuration object depends on the bot, with the
exception that configuration for effects will be an object with an action
property that describes what causes it should react to, and what it should do
in response. For more information, see the section on
configuring effects.

The
for:prefix is to avoid the auth rule that prevents other users from setting a state event with a state key equal to another user’s Matrix ID.
