register new user

ssh in. normally you use register_new_matrix_user, but the digital ocean droplet comes with:

./new-user

curl as client

you're on port 8448, which is unusual.

faq: how do I get an apostrophe? you can just glue strings, be they double-apostrophe or double-quote, together immediately:

#password is asdf'fdsa
pw='asdf'"'"'fdsa'

we're going to do the same to glue the password in.

username doesn't have to be your full username.

pw='PASSWORD'
echo $pw
curl -XPOST -d '{"type":"m.login.password", "user":"USERNAME", "password":"'"$pw"'"}' "https://greyn.club:8448/_matrix/client/r0/login"

that'll give you back a json object, including an access token

curl -XPOST \
    -d "{\"msgtype\":\"m.text\", \"body\":\"TEXT\"}" \
    "https://greyn.club:8448/_matrix/client/r0/rooms/"'!'"pPZWsacCoTafJoyJXu:greyn.club/send/m.room.message?access_token=ACCESSTOKEN"
