Matrix mod for Minetest

This mod creates a bridge between a Matrix channel and the in-game chat. The code is shamelessly based on the irc mod and examples from lua-matrix.

You might need to prepend sudo to first and second commands

For the moment you need to disabled mod security for lua-matrix to work. This will hopefully change.

secure.enable_security = false
