The validation links sent via email had their query parameters inserted without any URL-encoding. Surprisingly this didn't seem to cause any issues, but if a user were to put a `/` in their client_secret it could lead to problems.
This is a combination of a few different PRs, finally all being merged into `develop`:
* #5875
* #5876
* #5868 (This one added the `/versions` flag but the flag itself was actually [backed out](891afb57cb (diff-e591d42d30690ffb79f63bb726200891)) in #5969. What's left is just giving /versions access to the config file, which could be useful in the future)
* #5835
* #5969
* #5940
Clients should not actually use the new registration functionality until https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/5972 is merged.
UPGRADE.rst, changelog entries and config file changes should all be reviewed closely before this PR is merged.
Python will return a tuple whether there are parentheses around the returned values or not.
I'm just sick of my editor complaining about this all over the place :)
When we try and calculate a description for a room for with no name but
multiple other users we threw an exception (due to trying to subscript
result of `dict.values()`).
Sends password reset emails from the homeserver instead of proxying to the identity server. This is now the default behaviour for security reasons. If you wish to continue proxying password reset requests to the identity server you must now enable the email.trust_identity_server_for_password_resets option.
This PR is a culmination of 3 smaller PRs which have each been separately reviewed:
* #5308
* #5345
* #5368
We start all pushers on start up and immediately start a background
process to fetch push to send. This makes start up incredibly painful
when dealing with many pushers.
Instead, let's do a quick fast DB check to see if there *may* be push to
send and only start the background processes for those pushers. We also
stagger starting up and doing those checks so that we don't try and
handle all pushers at once.
This brings it into line with on_new_notifications and on_new_receipts. It
requires a little bit of hoop-jumping in EmailPusher to load the throttle
params before the first loop.
`on_new_notifications` and `on_new_receipts` in `HttpPusher` and `EmailPusher`
now always return synchronously, so we can remove the `defer.gatherResults` on
their results, and the `run_as_background_process` wrappers can be removed too
because the PusherPool methods will now complete quickly enough.
Each pusher has its own loop which runs for as long as it has work to do. This
should run in its own background thread with its own logcontext, as other
similar loops elsewhere in the system do - which means that CPU usage is
consistently attributed to that loop, rather than to whatever request happened
to start the loop.
move the example email templates into the synapse package so that they can be
used as package data, which should mean that all of the packaging mechanisms
(pip, docker, debian, arch, etc) should now come with the example templates.
In order to grandfather in people who relied on the templates being in the old
place, check for that situation and fall back to using the defaults if the
templates directory does not exist.
First of all, avoid resetting the logcontext before running the pushers, to fix
the "Starting db txn 'get_all_updated_receipts' from sentinel context" warning.
Instead, give them their own "background process" logcontexts.
