Adds a new method, check_3pid_auth, which gives password providers
the chance to allow authentication with third-party identifiers such
as email or msisdn.
Currently the explanation message is sent to the abuse room before any
users are forced joined, which means it tends to get lost in the backlog
of joins.
So instead we send the message *after* we've forced joined everyone.
Allow for the creation of a support user.
A support user can access the server, join rooms, interact with other users, but does not appear in the user directory nor does it contribute to monthly active user limits.
This is mostly factoring out the post-CAS-login code to somewhere we can reuse
it for other SSO flows, but it also fixes the userid mapping while we're at it.
* Rip out half-implemented m.login.saml2 support
This was implemented in an odd way that left most of the work to the client, in
a way that I really didn't understand. It's going to be a pain to maintain, so
let's start by ripping it out.
* drop undocumented dependency on dateutil
It turns out we were relying on dateutil being pulled in transitively by
pysaml2. There's no need for that bloat.
* Clean up the CSS for the fallback login form
I was finding this hard to work with, so simplify a bunch of things. Each
flow is now a form inside a div of class login_flow.
The login_flow class now has a fixed width, as that looks much better than each
flow having a differnt width.
* Support m.login.sso
MSC1721 renames m.login.cas to m.login.sso. This implements the change
(retaining support for m.login.cas for older clients).
* changelog
Currently when fetching state groups from the data store we make two
hits two the database: once for members and once for non-members (unless
request is filtered to one or the other). This adds needless load to the
datbase, so this PR refactors the lookup to make only a single database
hit.
Older identity servers may not support the unbind 3pid request, so we
shouldn't fail the requests if we received one of 400/404/501. The
request still fails if we receive e.g. 500 responses, allowing clients
to retry requests on transient identity server errors that otherwise do
support the API.
Fixes#3661
Make sure that the user has permission to view the requeseted event for
/event/{eventId} and /room/{roomId}/event/{eventId} requests.
Also check that the event is in the given room for
/room/{roomId}/event/{eventId}, for sanity.
parse_integer and parse_string can take a request and raise errors
in case we have wrong or missing params.
This PR tries to use them more to deduplicate some code and make it
better readable
