Deploy Matrix Synapse and Element

Deploy Matrix chat infrastructure.
cd ~/online-beratung/caritas-workspace/ORISO-Kubernetes

# Deploy Matrix
kubectl apply -f deployments/06-matrix.yaml

# Wait for Matrix
kubectl wait --for=condition=ready pod -l app=matrix-synapse -n caritas --timeout=300s

# Check status
kubectl get pods -n caritas | grep -E "matrix|element"
You should see both pods running:
  • matrix-synapse-xxx 1/1 Running
  • element-xxx 1/1 Running

Verify Matrix

Verify Matrix services are operational.
# Check Matrix Synapse
curl http://127.0.0.1:8008/_matrix/client/versions
# Expected: JSON with version info

# Check Element.io
curl -I http://127.0.0.1:8087
# Expected: HTTP/1.1 200 OK

# Access in browser
SERVER_IP=$(hostname -I | awk '{print $1}')
echo "Element.io: http://$SERVER_IP:8087"
Matrix Synapse should return JSON version information, and Element.io should return HTTP 200 OK.
