* Split up the documentation in several files rather than one huge one * Add examples for each callback category * Other niceties like fixing https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10632 * Add titles to callbacks so they're easier to find in the navigation panels and link to

# Modules
|
|
|
|
Synapse supports extending its functionality by configuring external modules.
|
|
|
|
## Using modules
|
|
|
|
To use a module on Synapse, add it to the `modules` section of the configuration file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
modules:
|
|
- module: my_super_module.MySuperClass
|
|
config:
|
|
do_thing: true
|
|
- module: my_other_super_module.SomeClass
|
|
config: {}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each module is defined by a path to a Python class as well as a configuration. This
|
|
information for a given module should be available in the module's own documentation.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: When using third-party modules, you effectively allow someone else to run
|
|
custom code on your Synapse homeserver. Server admins are encouraged to verify the
|
|
provenance of the modules they use on their homeserver and make sure the modules aren't
|
|
running malicious code on their instance.
|
|
|
|
Also note that we are currently in the process of migrating module interfaces to this
|
|
system. While some interfaces might be compatible with it, others still require
|
|
configuring modules in another part of Synapse's configuration file.
|
|
|
|
Currently, only the following pre-existing interfaces are compatible with this new system:
|
|
|
|
* spam checker
|
|
* third-party rules
|
|
* presence router
