This adds a flag loaded from the registration file of an AS that will determine whether or not its users are rate limited (by ratelimit in _base.py). Needed for IRC bridge reasons - see https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-appservice-irc/issues/240.
A lot of email push notifications were failing to be sent due to an
exception being thrown along one of the (many) paths. This was due to a
change where we moved from pulling out the full state for each room, but
rather pulled out the event ids for the state and separately loaded the
full events when needed.
This requires a bit of fettling, because I want to return a helpful error
message too but we don't want to distinguish between unknown user and invalid
password. To avoid hardcoding the error message into 15 places in the code,
I've had to refactor a few methods to return None instead of throwing.
Fixes https://matrix.org/jira/browse/SYN-744
If you're a webapp running the fallback in an iframe, you can't set set a
window.onAuthDone function. Let's post a message back to window.opener instead.
Allows delegating the password auth to an external module. This also
moves the LDAP auth to using this system, allowing it to be removed from
the synapse tree entirely in the future.
- properly parse return values of ldap bind() calls
- externalize authentication methods
- change control flow to be more error-resilient
- unbind ldap connections in many places
- improve log messages and loglevels
The storage function `_get_events_txn` was removed everywhere except
from this background reindex. The function was removed due to it being
(almost) completely unused while also being large and complex.
Therefore, instead of resurrecting `_get_events_txn` we manually
reimplement the bits that are needed directly.
Some streams will occaisonally advance their positions without actually
having any new rows to send over federation. Currently this means that
the token will not advance on the workers, leading to them repeatedly
sending a slightly out of date token. This in turns requires the master
to hit the DB to check if there are any new rows, rather than hitting
the no op logic where we check if the given token matches the current
token.
This commit changes the API to always return an entry if the position
for a stream has changed, allowing workers to advance their tokens
correctly.
