@schnecfk:ruhr-uni-bochum.deCRTifiedYou can just plug it in the end of that URL11:45:49
@grahamc:nixos.org@grahamc:nixos.orgoh cool11:45:53
@schnecfk:ruhr-uni-bochum.deCRTifiedIn the end, its basically all HTTP11:46:16
@grahamc:nixos.org@grahamc:nixos.orgyeah :) with some manipulation I suppose11:46:25
@schnecfk:ruhr-uni-bochum.deCRTifiedYou can also swap out the host and use the same URL on different homeservers, it will fetch (and cache) the download from the homeserver in the URL11:47:06

$ synadm -o json room details '!VjfUzaKsXokUdnQcvP:nixos.org' | jq .

so iterating over each room id, filtering out rooms with a null avatar, and then figuring out how to upload media and update the room id

@kevincox:matrix.orgkevincoxIf you post an image Element will also let you view source and see the mxc URL. But that isn't too convenient for automation.11:47:54
@grahamc:nixos.org@grahamc:nixos.orgyeah, I wonder what the API is like to upload the image automatically13:24:19
@grahamc:nixos.org@grahamc:nixos.org maybe sumner has ideas here 13:24:25
@kevincox:matrix.orgkevincox

It looks like you could combine:

yeah, I wonder what the API is like to upload the image automatically
Just send it bytes I think: https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.4.0#post-matrix-media-r0-upload 		14:18:55
@sumner:sumnerevans.comsumner It gives you the MXC URI as a response. Normally clients will then turn around right away and send it in a message, but in this case you just need to add it to a m.room.avatar state event (https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.4.0#m-room-avatar) which can be created with this endpoint: https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.4.0#put-matrix-client-r0-rooms-roomid-state-eventtype 14:22:37

@grahamc:nixos.org@grahamc:nixos.orgthanks!14:59:07
@grahamc:nixos.org@grahamc:nixos.orgI don't suppose anyone wants to make a little script which accepts a room id and local file path, to upload the image and set the avatar? 😃14:59:36
@andi:kack.itandi-One of the famous matrix bots has a command/plugin for converting an image to an MXC URI15:07:56

@schnecfk:ruhr-uni-bochum.deCRTifiedOh, Content-type might be wrong and needs a fix15:33:09

@schnecfk:ruhr-uni-bochum.deCRTifiedAnd note that there's no error handling 👀15:35:25

Alternative is:

mimetype=$(file --mime-type $avatar_path | sed 's/.*: //g')
15:37:27
@schnecfk:ruhr-uni-bochum.deCRTifiedThat's significantly cleaner15:37:52
