On every gateway startup, the following warnings appear:

[channels] bundled channel entry bluebubbles missing channelPlugin export; skipping
[channels] bundled channel entry discord missing channelPlugin export; skipping
[channels] bundled channel entry slack missing channelPlugin export; skipping

These appear multiple times (3+ repetitions) on each startup. These channels are not configured/in use but the warnings add noise and suggest something is loading these extensions multiple times.

Root Cause

On every gateway startup, the following warnings appear:

[channels] bundled channel entry bluebubbles missing channelPlugin export; skipping
[channels] bundled channel entry discord missing channelPlugin export; skipping
[channels] bundled channel entry slack missing channelPlugin export; skipping

These appear multiple times (3+ repetitions) on each startup. These channels are not configured/in use but the warnings add noise and suggest something is loading these extensions multiple times.

Code Example

extent analysis

TL;DR

Disable or remove unused channel plugins to prevent repetitive warnings on gateway startup.

Guidance

  • Identify and review the configuration files for the gateway to determine why the unused channels (bluebubbles, discord, slack) are being loaded.
  • Check for any duplicate or unnecessary entries in the configuration that might be causing the channels to be loaded multiple times.
  • Consider disabling or removing the unused channel plugins to prevent the warnings and potential performance issues.
  • Verify that the gateway's plugin management system is properly configured to handle unused or disabled plugins.

Example

No specific code snippet can be provided without more information on the gateway's configuration files or plugin management system.

Notes

The exact steps to disable or remove the unused channel plugins may vary depending on the gateway's configuration and plugin management system. It is recommended to consult the gateway's documentation for specific instructions.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Disable or remove unused channel plugins to prevent repetitive warnings and potential performance issues, as this is a non-intrusive change that can help reduce log noise without affecting the gateway's functionality.
