matrix : Communication with matrix.org server

The primary use case is sending notification messages.

Follow the following steps to successfully deploy a messaging bot on your lino site:

1. Create a user (which will work as a chat-bot) on https://account.matrix.org.

2. Create a <SITE.site_dir>/secrets/matrix_credentials_file.json file with the content:

   {
       "user_id": id_of_the_bot_user_from_step_1,
       "user_password": password_of_the_bot_user
   }
   

3. Add plugin “lino_xl.lib.matrix” to your site from SITE.get_installed_plugins().

With the above setup and with having notify plugin installed, you will have notification messages enabled on you matrix.org client.
