NAME
pantalaimon — End-to-end encryption aware Matrix reverse proxy daemon.
SYNOPSIS
pantalaimon [-c config] [--log-level level] [--data-path path] [--version] [--help]
DESCRIPTION
pantalaimon is a daemon that acts as a reverse proxy between a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix client. The daemon transparently handles end-to-end encryption tasks on behalf of the client. pantalaimon is supposed to run as your own user and listen to connections on a non- privileged port. A client needs to log in using the standard Matrix HTTP calls to register itself to the daemon, such a registered user is called a pan user and will have it's own sync loop to keep up with the server. Multiple matrix clients can connect and use the same pan user. If user interaction is required pantalaimon will send out OS notifications which the user can react to. pantalaimon also provides a D-Bus API that is used for encryption related tasks that require user interference (e.g. device verification). pantalaimon requires a homeserver to be configured. Multiple homeservers can be configured, each configured homeserver needs to listen on a separate port. Each homeserver can handle end-to-end encryption for multiple users. The configuration file format is specified in pantalaimon(5), the default location of the configuration file can be found in the FILES section. Options The command line flags to change the behaviour of pantalaimon are as follows: -c, --config file Use the supplied file as the configuration file instead of the default one. --log-level level Set the log level of the daemon, can be one of error, warning, info, debug. Defaults to warning. --data-path path Set the directory for the pantalaimon database. This config option takes precedence over the XDG environment variables. --version Display the version number and exit. --help Display the help and exit.
FILES
pantalaimon supports the XDG Base Directory Specification, the default locations can be overridden using appropriate environment variables. ~/.config/pantalaimon/pantalaimon.conf Default location of the configuration file. The format of the configuration file is described in pantalaimon(5). ~/.local/share/pantalaimon/pan.db Default location of the pantalaimon database. This file is used to store a sqlite database holding daemon state and encryption keys.
EXIT STATUS
The pantalaimon utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
