|
This module adds support for push notifications. Homeservers send
|
|
notifications of events to user-configured HTTP endpoints. Users may
|
|
also configure a number of rules that determine which events generate
|
|
notifications. These are all stored and managed by the user's
|
|
homeserver. This allows user-specific push settings to be reused between
|
|
client applications.
|
|
|
|
The above diagram shows the flow of push notifications being sent to a
|
|
handset where push notifications are submitted via the handset vendor,
|
|
such as Apple's APNS or Google's GCM. This happens as follows:
|
|
|
|
1. The client app signs in to a homeserver.
|
|
2. The client app registers with its vendor's Push Provider and obtains
|
|
a routing token of some kind.
|
|
3. The mobile app uses the Client/Server API to add a 'pusher',
|
|
providing the URL of a specific Push Gateway which is configured for
|
|
that application. It also provides the routing token it has acquired
|
|
from the Push Provider.
|
|
4. The homeserver starts sending HTTP requests to the Push Gateway
|
|
using the supplied URL. The Push Gateway relays this notification to
|
|
the Push Provider, passing the routing token along with any
|
|
necessary private credentials the provider requires to send push
|
|
notifications.
|
|
5. The Push Provider sends the notification to the device.
|
|
|
|
Definitions for terms used in this section are below:
|
|
|
|
Push Provider
|
|
A push provider is a service managed by the device vendor which can send
|
|
notifications directly to the device. Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) and
|
|
Apple Push Notification Service (APNS) are two examples of push
|
|
providers.
|
|
|
|
Push Gateway
|
|
A push gateway is a server that receives HTTP event notifications from
|
|
homeservers and passes them on to a different protocol such as APNS for
|
|
iOS devices or GCM for Android devices. Clients inform the homeserver
|
|
which Push Gateway to send notifications to when it sets up a Pusher.
|
|
|
|
Pusher
|
|
A pusher is a worker on the homeserver that manages the sending of HTTP
|
|
notifications for a user. A user can have multiple pushers: one per
|
|
device.
|
|
|
|
Push Rule
|
|
A push rule is a single rule that states under what *conditions* an
|
|
event should be passed onto a push gateway and *how* the notification
|
|
should be presented. These rules are stored on the user's homeserver.
|
|
They are manually configured by the user, who can create and view them
|
|
via the Client/Server API.
|
|
|
|
Push Ruleset
|
|
A push ruleset *scopes a set of rules according to some criteria*. For
|
|
example, some rules may only be applied for messages from a particular
|
|
sender, a particular room, or by default. The push ruleset contains the
|
|
entire set of scopes and rules.
|
|
|
|
#### Client behaviour
|
|
|
|
Clients MUST configure a Pusher before they will receive push
|
|
notifications. There is a single API endpoint for this, as described
|
|
below.
|
|
|
|
{{pusher\_cs\_http\_api}}
|
|
|
|
##### Listing Notifications
|
|
|
|
A client can retrieve a list of events that it has been notified about.
|
|
This may be useful so that users can see a summary of what important
|
|
messages they have received.
|
|
|
|
{{notifications\_cs\_http\_api}}
|
|
|
|
##### Receiving notifications
|
|
|
|
Servers MUST include the number of unread notifications in a client's
|
|
`/sync` stream, and MUST update it as it changes. Notifications are
|
|
determined by the push rules which apply to an event.
|
|
|
|
When the user updates their read receipt (either by using the API or by
|
|
sending an event), notifications prior to and including that event MUST
|
|
be marked as read.
|
|
|
|
##### Push Rules
|
|
|
|
A push rule is a single rule that states under what *conditions* an
|
|
event should be passed onto a push gateway and *how* the notification
|
|
should be presented. There are different "kinds" of push rules and each
|
|
rule has an associated priority. Every push rule MUST have a `kind` and
|
|
`rule_id`. The `rule_id` is a unique string within the kind of rule and
|
|
its' scope: `rule_ids` do not need to be unique between rules of the
|
|
same kind on different devices. Rules may have extra keys depending on
|
|
the value of `kind`.
|
|
|
|
The different `kind`s of rule, in the order that they are checked, are:
|
|
|
|
Override Rules `override`
|
|
The highest priority rules are user-configured overrides.
|
|
|
|
Content-specific Rules `content`
|
|
These configure behaviour for (unencrypted) messages that match certain
|
|
patterns. Content rules take one parameter: `pattern`, that gives the
|
|
glob pattern to match against. This is treated in the same way as
|
|
`pattern` for `event_match`.
|
|
|
|
Room-specific Rules `room`
|
|
These rules change the behaviour of all messages for a given room. The
|
|
`rule_id` of a room rule is always the ID of the room that it affects.
|
|
|
|
Sender-specific rules `sender`
|
|
These rules configure notification behaviour for messages from a
|
|
specific Matrix user ID. The `rule_id` of Sender rules is always the
|
|
Matrix user ID of the user whose messages they'd apply to.
|
|
|
|
Underride rules `underride`
|
|
These are identical to `override` rules, but have a lower priority than
|
|
`content`, `room` and `sender` rules.
|
|
|
|
Rules with the same `kind` can specify an ordering priority. This
|
|
determines which rule is selected in the event of multiple matches. For
|
|
example, a rule matching "tea" and a separate rule matching "time" would
|
|
both match the sentence "It's time for tea". The ordering of the rules
|
|
would then resolve the tiebreak to determine which rule is executed.
|
|
Only `actions` for highest priority rule will be sent to the Push
|
|
Gateway.
|
|
|
|
Each rule can be enabled or disabled. Disabled rules never match. If no
|
|
rules match an event, the homeserver MUST NOT notify the Push Gateway
|
|
for that event. Homeservers MUST NOT notify the Push Gateway for events
|
|
that the user has sent themselves.
|
|
|
|
###### Actions
|
|
|
|
All rules have an associated list of `actions`. An action affects if and
|
|
how a notification is delivered for a matching event. The following
|
|
actions are defined:
|
|
|
|
`notify`
|
|
This causes each matching event to generate a notification.
|
|
|
|
`dont_notify`
|
|
This prevents each matching event from generating a notification
|
|
|
|
`coalesce`
|
|
This enables notifications for matching events but activates homeserver
|
|
specific behaviour to intelligently coalesce multiple events into a
|
|
single notification. Not all homeservers may support this. Those that do
|
|
not support it should treat it as the `notify` action.
|
|
|
|
`set_tweak`
|
|
Sets an entry in the `tweaks` dictionary key that is sent in the
|
|
notification request to the Push Gateway. This takes the form of a
|
|
dictionary with a `set_tweak` key whose value is the name of the tweak
|
|
to set. It may also have a `value` key which is the value to which it
|
|
should be set.
|
|
|
|
Actions that have no parameters are represented as a string. Otherwise,
|
|
they are represented as a dictionary with a key equal to their name and
|
|
other keys as their parameters, e.g.
|
|
`{ "set_tweak": "sound", "value": "default" }`
|
|
|
|
####### Tweaks
|
|
|
|
The `set_tweak` action is used to add an entry to the 'tweaks'
|
|
dictionary that is sent in the notification request to the Push Gateway.
|
|
The following tweaks are defined:
|
|
|
|
`sound`
|
|
A string representing the sound to be played when this notification
|
|
arrives. A value of `default` means to play a default sound. A device
|
|
may choose to alert the user by some other means if appropriate, eg.
|
|
vibration.
|
|
|
|
`highlight`
|
|
A boolean representing whether or not this message should be highlighted
|
|
in the UI. This will normally take the form of presenting the message in
|
|
a different colour and/or style. The UI might also be adjusted to draw
|
|
particular attention to the room in which the event occurred. If a
|
|
`highlight` tweak is given with no value, its value is defined to be
|
|
`true`. If no highlight tweak is given at all then the value of
|
|
`highlight` is defined to be false.
|
|
|
|
Tweaks are passed transparently through the homeserver so client
|
|
applications and Push Gateways may agree on additional tweaks. For
|
|
example, a tweak may be added to specify how to flash the notification
|
|
light on a mobile device.
|
|
|
|
###### Conditions
|
|
|
|
`override` and `underride` rules MAY have a list of 'conditions'. All
|
|
conditions must hold true for an event in order for the rule to match. A
|
|
rule with no conditions always matches. The following conditions are
|
|
defined:
|
|
|
|
`event_match`
|
|
This is a glob pattern match on a field of the event. Parameters:
|
|
|
|
- `key`: The dot-separated field of the event to match, e.g.
|
|
`content.body`
|
|
- `pattern`: The glob-style pattern to match against. Patterns with no
|
|
special glob characters should be treated as having asterisks
|
|
prepended and appended when testing the condition.
|
|
|
|
`contains_display_name`
|
|
This matches unencrypted messages where `content.body` contains the
|
|
owner's display name in that room. This is a separate rule because
|
|
display names may change and as such it would be hard to maintain a rule
|
|
that matched the user's display name. This condition has no parameters.
|
|
|
|
`room_member_count`
|
|
This matches the current number of members in the room. Parameters:
|
|
|
|
- `is`: A decimal integer optionally prefixed by one of, `==`, `<`,
|
|
`>`, `>=` or `<=`. A prefix of `<` matches rooms where the member
|
|
count is strictly less than the given number and so forth. If no
|
|
prefix is present, this parameter defaults to `==`.
|
|
|
|
`sender_notification_permission`
|
|
This takes into account the current power levels in the room, ensuring
|
|
the sender of the event has high enough power to trigger the
|
|
notification.
|
|
|
|
Parameters:
|
|
|
|
- `key`: A string that determines the power level the sender must have
|
|
to trigger notifications of a given type, such as `room`. Refer to
|
|
the [m.room.power\_levels]() event schema for information about what
|
|
the defaults are and how to interpret the event. The `key` is used
|
|
to look up the power level required to send a notification type from
|
|
the `notifications` object in the power level event content.
|
|
|
|
Unrecognised conditions MUST NOT match any events, effectively making
|
|
the push rule disabled.
|
|
|
|
`room`, `sender` and `content` rules do not have conditions in the same
|
|
way, but instead have predefined conditions. In the cases of `room` and
|
|
`sender` rules, the `rule_id` of the rule determines its behaviour.
|
|
|
|
###### Predefined Rules
|
|
|
|
Homeservers can specify "server-default rules" which operate at a lower
|
|
priority than "user-defined rules". The `rule_id` for all server-default
|
|
rules MUST start with a dot (".") to identify them as "server-default".
|
|
The following server-default rules are specified:
|
|
|
|
####### Default Override Rules
|
|
|
|
######## `.m.rule.master`
|
|
|
|

Matches any message whose content is unencrypted and contains the local
|
|
part of the user's Matrix ID, separated by word boundaries.
|
|
|
|
Definition (as a `content` rule):
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
######## `.m.rule.encrypted_room_one_to_one`
|
|
|
|
Matches any encrypted event sent in a room with exactly two members.
|
|
Unlike other push rules, this rule cannot be matched against the content
|
|
of the event by nature of it being encrypted. This causes the rule to be
|
|
an "all or nothing" match where it either matches *all* events that are
|
|
encrypted (in 1:1 rooms) or none.

######## `.m.rule.encrypted`
|
|
|
|
Matches all encrypted events. Unlike other push rules, this rule cannot
|
|
be matched against the content of the event by nature of it being
|
|
encrypted. This causes the rule to be an "all or nothing" match where it
|
|
either matches *all* events that are encrypted (in group rooms) or none.

##### Push Rules: API
|
|
|
|
Clients can retrieve, add, modify and remove push rules globally or
|
|
per-device using the APIs below.
|
|
|
|
{{pushrules\_cs\_http\_api}}
|
|
|
|
##### Push Rules: Events
|
|
|
|
When a user changes their push rules a `m.push_rules` event is sent to
|
|
all clients in the `account_data` section of their next `/sync` request.
|
|
The content of the event is the current push rules for the user.
|
|
|
|
{{m\_push\_rules\_event}}
|

|
|
###### Examples
|
|
|
|
To create a rule that suppresses notifications for the room with ID
|
|
`!dj234r78wl45Gh4D:matrix.org`:
|
|
|
|
curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" "https://example.com/_matrix/client/%CLIENT_MAJOR_VERSION%/pushrules/global/room/%21dj234r78wl45Gh4D%3Amatrix.org?access_token=123456" -d \
|
|
'{
|
|
"actions" : ["dont_notify"]
|
|
}'
|
|
|
|
To suppress notifications for the user `@spambot:matrix.org`:
|
|
|
|
curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" "https://example.com/_matrix/client/%CLIENT_MAJOR_VERSION%/pushrules/global/sender/%40spambot%3Amatrix.org?access_token=123456" -d \
|
|
'{
|
|
"actions" : ["dont_notify"]
|
|
}'
|
|
|
|
To always notify for messages that contain the work 'cake' and set a
|
|
specific sound (with a rule\_id of `SSByZWFsbHkgbGlrZSBjYWtl`):
|
|
|
|
curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" "https://example.com/_matrix/client/%CLIENT_MAJOR_VERSION%/pushrules/global/content/SSByZWFsbHkgbGlrZSBjYWtl?access_token=123456" -d \
|
|
'{
|
|
"pattern": "cake",
|
|
"actions" : ["notify", {"set_sound":"cakealarm.wav"}]
|
|
}'
|
|
|
|
To add a rule suppressing notifications for messages starting with
|
|
'cake' but ending with 'lie', superseding the previous rule:
|
|
|
|
curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" "https://example.com/_matrix/client/%CLIENT_MAJOR_VERSION%/pushrules/global/content/U3BvbmdlIGNha2UgaXMgYmVzdA?access_token=123456&before=SSByZWFsbHkgbGlrZSBjYWtl" -d \
|
|
'{
|
|
"pattern": "cake*lie",
|
|
"actions" : ["notify"]
|
|
}'
|
|
|
|
To add a custom sound for notifications messages containing the word
|
|
'beer' in any rooms with 10 members or fewer (with greater importance
|
|
than the room, sender and content rules):
|
|
|
|
curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" "https://example.com/_matrix/client/%CLIENT_MAJOR_VERSION%/pushrules/global/override/U2VlIHlvdSBpbiBUaGUgRHVrZQ?access_token=123456" -d \
|
|
'{
|
|
"conditions": [
|
|
{"kind": "event_match", "key": "content.body", "pattern": "beer" },
|
|
{"kind": "room_member_count", "is": "<=10"}
|
|
],
|
|
"actions" : [
|
|
"notify",
|
|
{"set_sound":"beeroclock.wav"}
|
|
]
|
|
}'
|
|
|
|
#### Server behaviour
|
|
|
|
#### Push Gateway behaviour
|
|
|
|
##### Recommendations for APNS
|
|
|
|
The exact format for sending APNS notifications is flexible and up to
|
|
the client app and its' push gateway to agree on. As APNS requires that
|
|
the sender has a private key owned by the app developer, each app must
|
|
have its own push gateway. It is recommended that:
|
|
|
|
- The APNS token be base64 encoded and used as the pushkey.
|
|
- A different app\_id be used for apps on the production and sandbox
|
|
APS environments.
|
|
- APNS push gateways do not attempt to wait for errors from the APNS
|
|
gateway before returning and instead to store failures and return
|
|
'rejected' responses next time that pushkey is used.
|
|
|
|
#### Security considerations
|
|
|
|
Clients specify the Push Gateway URL to use to send event notifications
|
|
to. This URL should be over HTTPS and *never* over HTTP.
|
|
|
|
As push notifications will pass through a Push Provider, message content
|
|
shouldn't be sent in the push itself where possible. Instead, Push
|
|
Gateways should send a "sync" command to instruct the client to get new
|
|
events from the homeserver directly.
