Room config (specifically: message history,
|
|
|
|
|
public rooms). /register seems super simplistic compared to /login, maybe it
|
|
|
|
|
would be better if /register used the same technique as /login? /register should
|
|
|
|
|
be "user" not "user_id".

How to use the client-server API
|
|
|
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. NOTE::
|
|
|
|
|
The git version of this document is ``{{git_version}}``
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This guide focuses on how the client-server APIs *provided by the reference
|
|
|
|
|
homeserver* can be used. Since this is specific to a homeserver
|
|
|
|
|
implementation, there may be variations in relation to registering/logging in
|
|
|
|
|
which are not covered in extensive detail in this guide.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you haven't already, get a homeserver up and running on
|
|
|
|
|
``https://localhost:8008``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Accounts
|
|
|
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
|
Before you can send and receive messages, you must **register** for an account.
|
|
|
|
|
If you already have an account, you must **login** into it.
|
|

Registration
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
The aim of registration is to get a user ID and access token which you will need
|
|
|
|
|
when accessing other APIs::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl -XPOST -d '{"user":"example", "password":"wordpass", "type":"m.login.password"}' "https://localhost:8008/_matrix/client/api/v1/register"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
|
"access_token": "QGV4YW1wbGU6bG9jYWxob3N0.AqdSzFmFYrLrTmteXc",
|
|
|
|
|
"home_server": "localhost",
|
|
|
|
|
"user_id": "@example:localhost"
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NB: If a ``user`` is not specified, one will be randomly generated for you.
|
|
|
|
|
If you do not specify a ``password``, you will be unable to login to the account
|
|
|
|
|
if you forget the ``access_token``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Implementation note: The matrix specification does not enforce how users
|
|
|
|
|
register with a server. It just specifies the URL path and absolute minimum
|
|
|
|
|
keys. The reference homeserver uses a username/password to authenticate user,
|
|
|
|
|
but other homeservers may use different methods. This is why you need to
|
|
|
|
|
specify the ``type`` of method.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Login
|
|
|
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
|
The aim when logging in is to get an access token for your existing user ID::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl -XGET "https://localhost:8008/_matrix/client/api/v1/login"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
|
"flows": [
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
|
"type": "m.login.password"
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl -XPOST -d '{"type":"m.login.password", "user":"example", "password":"wordpass"}' "https://localhost:8008/_matrix/client/api/v1/login"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
|
"access_token": "QGV4YW1wbGU6bG9jYWxob3N0.vRDLTgxefmKWQEtgGd",
|
|
|
|
|
"home_server": "localhost",
|
|
|
|
|
"user_id": "@example:localhost"
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Implementation note: Different homeservers may implement different methods for
|
|
|
|
|
logging in to an existing account. In order to check that you know how to login
|
|
|
|
|
to this homeserver, you must perform a ``GET`` first and make sure you
|
|
|
|
|
recognise the login type. If you do not know how to login, you can
|
|
|
|
|
``GET /login/fallback`` which will return a basic webpage which you can use to
|
|
|
|
|
login. The reference homeserver implementation support username/password login,
|
|
|
|
|
but other homeservers may support different login methods (e.g. OAuth2).

|
Communicating
|
|
|
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In order to communicate with another user, you must **create a room** with that
|
|
|
|
|
user and **send a message** to that room.

Creating a room
|
|
|
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to send a message to someone, you have to be in a room with them. To
|
|
|
|
|
create a room::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl -XPOST -d '{"room_alias_name":"tutorial"}' "https://localhost:8008/_matrix/client/api/v1/createRoom?access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
|
"room_alias": "#tutorial:localhost",
|
|
|
|
|
"room_id": "!CvcvRuDYDzTOzfKKgh:localhost"
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "room alias" is a human-readable string which can be shared with other users
|
|
|
|
|
so they can join a room, rather than the room ID which is a randomly generated
|
|
|
|
|
string. You can have multiple room aliases per room.
|
|

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sending messages
|
|
|
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
|
You can now send messages to this room::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl -XPOST -d '{"msgtype":"m.text", "body":"hello"}' "https://localhost:8008/_matrix/client/api/v1/rooms/%21CvcvRuDYDzTOzfKKgh%3Alocalhost/send/m.room.message?access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
|
"event_id": "YUwRidLecu"
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The event ID returned is a unique ID which identifies this message.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NB: There are no limitations to the types of messages which can be exchanged.
|
|
|
|
|
The only requirement is that ``"msgtype"`` is specified. The Matrix
|
|
|
|
|
specification outlines the following standard types: ``m.text``, ``m.image``,
|
|
|
|
|
``m.audio``, ``m.video``, ``m.location``, ``m.emote``. See the specification for
|
|
|
|
|
more information on these types.

|
|
|
Users and rooms
|
|
|
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each room can be configured to allow or disallow certain rules. In particular,
|
|
|
|
|
these rules may specify if you require an **invitation** from someone already in
|
|
|
|
|
the room in order to **join the room**. In addition, you may also be able to
|
|
|
|
|
join a room **via a room alias** if one was set up.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Inviting a user to a room
|
|
|
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
You can directly invite a user to a room like so::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl -XPOST -d '{"user_id":"@myfriend:localhost"}' "https://localhost:8008/_matrix/client/api/v1/rooms/%21CvcvRuDYDzTOzfKKgh%3Alocalhost/invite?access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This informs ``@myfriend:localhost`` of the room ID
|
|
|
|
|
``!CvcvRuDYDzTOzfKKgh:localhost`` and allows them to join the room.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Joining a room via an invite
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
If you receive an invite, you can join the room::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl -XPOST -d '{}' "https://localhost:8008/_matrix/client/api/v1/rooms/%21CvcvRuDYDzTOzfKKgh%3Alocalhost/join?access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NB: Only the person invited (``@myfriend:localhost``) can change the membership
|
|
|
|
|
state to ``"join"``. Repeatedly joining a room does nothing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Joining a room via an alias
|
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, if you know the room alias for this room and the room config
|
|
|
|
|
allows it, you can directly join a room via the alias::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl -XPOST -d '{}' "https://localhost:8008/_matrix/client/api/v1/join/%23tutorial%3Alocalhost?access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
|
"room_id": "!CvcvRuDYDzTOzfKKgh:localhost"
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You will need to use the room ID when sending messages, not the room alias.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NB: If the room is configured to be an invite-only room, you will still require
|
|
|
|
|
an invite in order to join the room even though you know the room alias. As a
|
|
|
|
|
result, it is more common to see a room alias in relation to a public room,
|
|
|
|
|
which do not require invitations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Getting events
|
|
|
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
|
An event is some interesting piece of data that a client may be interested in.
|
|
|
|
|
It can be a message in a room, a room invite, etc. There are many different ways
|
|
|
|
|
of getting events, depending on what the client already knows.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. NOTE::

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Getting all state
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
|
If the client doesn't know any information on the rooms the user is
|
|
|
|
|
invited/joined on, they can get all the user's state for all rooms::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl -XGET "https://localhost:8008/_matrix/client/api/v1/initialSync?access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"

This returns all the room information the user is invited/joined on, as well as

|
|
|
|
all of the presences relevant for these rooms. This can be a LOT of data. You

may just want the most recent event for each room. This can be achieved by
|
|
|

applying query parameters to ``limit`` this request::

Getting live state
|
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
Once you know which rooms the client has previously interacted with, you need to
|
|
|
|
|
listen for incoming events. This can be done like so::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl -XGET "https://localhost:8008/_matrix/client/api/v1/events?access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
|
"chunk": [],
|
|
|
|
|
"end": "s39_18_0",
|
|
|
|
|
"start": "s39_18_0"
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will block waiting for an incoming event, timing out after several seconds.
|
|
|
|
|
Even if there are no new events (as in the example above), there will be some
|
|
|
|
|
pagination stream response keys. The client should make subsequent requests
|
|
|
|
|
using the value of the ``"end"`` key (in this case ``s39_18_0``) as the ``from``
|
|
|
|
|
query parameter e.g. ``https://localhost:8008/_matrix/client/api/v1/events?access
|
|
|
|
|
_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN&from=s39_18_0``. This value should be stored so when the
|
|
|
|
|
client reopens your app after a period of inactivity, you can resume from where
|
|
|
|
|
you got up to in the event stream. If it has been a long period of inactivity,
|
|
|
|
|
there may be LOTS of events waiting for the user. In this case, you may wish to
|
|
|
|
|
get all state instead and then resume getting live state from a newer end token.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NB: The timeout can be changed by adding a ``timeout`` query parameter, which is
|
|
|
|
|
in milliseconds. A timeout of 0 will not block.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example application
|
|
|
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
|
The following example demonstrates registration and login, live event streaming,
|
|
|
|
|
creating and joining rooms, sending messages, getting member lists and getting
|
|
|
|
|
historical messages for a room. This covers most functionality of a messaging
|
|
|
|
|
application.
