Make integrations_ui_url configureable for electron

[enko]

It would be nice if the electron app could make integrations_ui_url configureable. At the moment it is hardcoded to scalar.modular.im and I cant set it to my self hosted instance.

A settings entry where I could specify a custom integration server. Alternativly I coudl think of that synapse advertises a integrations server so I dont have to configure all my clients (See element-hq/element-ios#2356).

You can provide an override config file as specified here: https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web#desktop-app-configuration

@t3chguy While this works under Linux like a charm, I can't seem to get it running under windows. This is my config.json:

C:\Users\tim_1wij8gh>cat %APPDATA%\Riot\config.json
{
    "integrations_ui_url": "https://dimension.schumacher.im/riot",
    "integrations_rest_url": "https://dimension.schumacher.im/api/v1/scalar",
    "integrations_widgets_urls": ["https://dimension.schumacher.im/widgets"],
    "integrations_jitsi_widget_url": "https://dimension.schumacher.im/widgets/jitsi"
}

The strangest thing is, that the stickers are using the other integrations, but the Button on the top of a channels, still calls the integrations on modular.im.

It does not work on Arch Linux for me. See #9476

@targodan I edited /etc/riot/config.json to make it work. I did not try $XDG_CONFIG_HOME\$NAME\config.json

[t3chguy]

So the issue is, it works for only the configuration options for the electron side of the app due to an oversight on my part

We'll use #9476 to track the problem here.
