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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### 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:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. **Override rules (`override`).**
|
|
|
|
The highest priority rules are user-configured overrides.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. **Content-specific rules (`content`).**
|
|
|
|
These configure behaviour for messages that match certain patterns. Content
|
|
|
|
rules take one parameter: `pattern`, that gives the
|
|
|
|
[glob-style pattern](/appendices#glob-style-matching) to match against.
|
|
|
|
The match is performed case-insensitively, and must match any substring of
|
|
|
|
the `content.body` property which starts and ends at a word boundary. A word
|
|
|
|
boundary is defined as the start or end of the value, or any character not
|
|
|
|
in the sets `[A-Z]`, `[a-z]`, `[0-9]` or `_`.The exact meaning of
|
|
|
|
"case insensitive" is defined by the implementation of the homeserver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. **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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. **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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. **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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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" }`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{% boxes/note %}}
|
|
|
|
Older versions of the Matrix specification included the `dont_notify` and
|
|
|
|
`coalesce` actions. These should both be considered no-ops (ignored, not
|
|
|
|
rejected) if received from a client.
|
|
|
|
{{% /boxes/note %}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### 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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following conditions are defined:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**`event_match`**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a glob pattern match on a property of the event. Parameters:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `key`: The [dot-separated path of the property](/appendices#dot-separated-property-paths)
|
|
|
|
of the event to match, e.g. `content.body`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `pattern`: The [glob-style pattern](/appendices#glob-style-matching) to match against.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The match is performed case-insensitively, and must match the entire value of
|
|
|
|
the event property given by `key` (though see below regarding `content.body`). The
|
|
|
|
exact meaning of "case insensitive" is defined by the implementation of the
|
|
|
|
homeserver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the property specified by `key` is completely absent from the event, or does
|
|
|
|
not have a string value, then the condition will not match, even if `pattern`
|
|
|
|
is `*`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{% boxes/note %}}
|
|
|
|
For example, if `key` is `content.topic`, and `pattern` is `lunc?*`, then
|
|
|
|
the following event will match:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
"content": {
|
|
|
|
"topic": "Lunch plans",
|
|
|
|
},
|
|
|
|
"event_id": "$143273582443PhrSn:example.org",
|
|
|
|
"room_id": "!636q39766251:example.com",
|
|
|
|
"sender": "@example:example.org",
|
|
|
|
"state_key": "",
|
|
|
|
"type": "m.room.topic"
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other `topic` values which will match are:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `"LUNCH"` (case-insensitive; `*` may match zero characters)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following `topic` values will NOT match:
|
|
|
|
* `" lunch"` (note leading space)
|
|
|
|
* `"lunc"` (`?` must match a character)
|
|
|
|
* `null` (not a string)
|
|
|
|
{{% /boxes/note %}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As a special case, if `key` is `content.body`, then `pattern` must instead
|
|
|
|
match any substring of the value of the property which starts and ends at a
|
|
|
|
word boundary. A word boundary is defined as the start or end of the value, or
|
|
|
|
any character not in the sets `[A-Z]`, `[a-z]`, `[0-9]` or `_`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{% boxes/note %}}
|
|
|
|
For example, if `key` is `content.body` and `pattern` is `ex*ple`, the
|
|
|
|
following event will match:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
"content": {
|
|
|
|
"body": "An example event."
|
|
|
|
},
|
|
|
|
"event_id": "$143273976499sgjks:example.org",
|
|
|
|
"room_id": "!636q39766251:example.com",
|
|
|
|
"sender": "@example:example.org",
|
|
|
|
"type": "m.room.message"
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other `body` values which will match are:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `"exple"` (the pattern can match at the start and end of the body.)
|
|
|
|
* `"An exciting triple-whammy"` (the pattern can span multiple words, and `-`
|
|
|
|
acts as a word separator.)
|
|
|
|
{{% /boxes/note %}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{% boxes/warning %}}
|
|
|
|
Note that there is no implicit condition for `state_key`. In other words, push
|
|
|
|
rules which should match only state events must include an explicit condition
|
|
|
|
for `state_key`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For an example of this, see the default rule
|
|
|
|
[`.m.rule.tombstone`](#mruletombstone) below.
|
|
|
|
{{% /boxes/warning %}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**`event_property_is`**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is an exact value match on a property of the event. Parameters:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `key`: The [dot-separated path of the property](/appendices#dot-separated-property-paths)
|
|
|
|
of the event to match, e.g. `content.body`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `value`: The value to match against.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The match is performed exactly and only supports non-compound [canonical JSON](/appendices#canonical-json)
|
|
|
|
values: strings, integers in the range of `[-(2**53)+1, (2**53)-1]`, booleans, and
|
|
|
|
`null`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the property specified by `key` is completely absent from the event, or does
|
|
|
|
not have a string, integer, boolean, or `null` value, then the condition will not
|
|
|
|
match.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{% boxes/note %}}
|
|
|
|
For example, if `key` is `content.m\.federate`, and `value` is `true`, then
|
|
|
|
the following event will match:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
"content": {
|
|
|
|
"creator": "@example:example.org",
|
|
|
|
"m.federate": true,
|
|
|
|
"predecessor": {
|
|
|
|
"event_id": "$something:example.org",
|
|
|
|
"room_id": "!oldroom:example.org"
|
|
|
|
},
|
|
|
|
"room_version": "1"
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following `m.federate` values will NOT match:
|
|
|
|
* `"true"` (note the string value)
|
|
|
|
* `1` (do not cast types)
|
|
|
|
{{% /boxes/note %}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**`event_property_contains`**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This matches if an array property of an event exactly contains a value. Parameters:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `key`: The [dot-separated path of the property](/appendices#dot-separated-property-paths)
|
|
|
|
of the event to match, e.g. `content.body`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `value`: The value to match against.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The array values are matched exactly and only supports non-compound [canonical JSON](/appendices#canonical-json)
|
|
|
|
values: strings, integers in the range of `[-(2**53)+1, (2**53)-1]`, booleans,
|
|
|
|
and `null`. Array values not of those types are ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the property specified by `key` is completely absent from the event, or is not
|
|
|
|
an array, then the condition will not match.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{% boxes/note %}}
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**`contains_display_name`**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This matches messages where `content.body` contains the owner's display name in
|
|
|
|
that room. This is a separate condition 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](#mroompower_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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Predefined Rules
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Homeservers can specify "server-default rules". They operate at a lower
|
|
|
|
priority than "user-defined rules", except for the `.m.rule.master` rule
|
|
|
|
which has always a higher priority than any other rule. 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 all events. This can be enabled to turn off all push
|
|
|
|
notifications. Unlike other server-default rules, this one has always a
|
|
|
|
higher priority than other rules, even user defined ones. By default this
|
|
|
|
rule is disabled.

**`.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.

#### Push Rules: API
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Clients can retrieve, add, modify and remove push rules globally or
|
|
|
|
per-device using the APIs below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{% http-api spec="client-server" api="pushrules" %}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### 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`](#get_matrixclientv3sync) request.
|
|
|
|
The content of the event is the current push rules for the user.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{% event event="m.push_rules" %}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### 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/v3/pushrules/global/room/%21dj234r78wl45Gh4D%3Amatrix.org?access_token=123456" -d \
|
|
|
|
'{
|
|
|
|
"actions" : []
|
|
|
|
}'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To suppress notifications for the user `@spambot:matrix.org`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" "https://example.com/_matrix/client/v3/pushrules/global/sender/%40spambot%3Amatrix.org?access_token=123456" -d \
|
|
|
|
'{
|
|
|
|
"actions" : []
|
|
|
|
}'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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/v3/pushrules/global/content/SSByZWFsbHkgbGlrZSBjYWtl?access_token=123456" -d \
|
|
|
|
'{
|
|
|
|
"pattern": "cake",
|
|
|
|
"actions" : ["notify", {"set_tweak":"sound", "value":"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/v3/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/v3/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_tweak":"sound", "value":"beeroclock.wav"}
|
|
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
}'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Client behaviour
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Clients MUST configure a Pusher before they will receive push
|
|
|
|
notifications. There is a single API endpoint for this, as described
|
|
|
|
below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{% http-api spec="client-server" api="pusher" %}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### 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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{% http-api spec="client-server" api="notifications" %}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### 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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For encrypted events, the homeserver has limited access to the event content
|
|
|
|
and properly processing push rules falls on the client. Clients should process
|
|
|
|
push rules for each incoming event *after decrypting* them. This may result in
|
|
|
|
needing to modify the number of unread notifications received from the homeserver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Marking notifications as read
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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. Which specific events are affected can vary depending
|
|
|
|
on whether a [threaded read receipt](#threaded-read-receipts) was used.
|
|
|
|
Note that users can send both an `m.read` and `m.read.private` receipt,
|
|
|
|
both of which are capable of clearing notifications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the user has both `m.read` and `m.read.private` set in the room then
|
|
|
|
the receipt which is more recent/ahead must be used to determine where
|
|
|
|
the user has read up to. For example, given an oldest-first set of events A,
|
|
|
|
B, C, and D the `m.read` receipt could be at event C and `m.read.private`
|
|
|
|
at event A - the user is considered to have read up to event C. If the
|
|
|
|
`m.read.private` receipt is then updated to point to B or C, the user's
|
|
|
|
notification state doesn't change (the `m.read` receipt is still more
|
|
|
|
ahead), however if the `m.read.private` receipt were to be updated to
|
|
|
|
event D then the user has read up to D (the `m.read` receipt is now
|
|
|
|
behind the `m.read.private` receipt).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{< added-in v="1.4" >}} When handling threaded read receipts, the server is to
|
|
|
|
partition the notification count to each thread (with the main timeline being
|
|
|
|
its own thread). To determine if an event is part of a thread the server follows
|
|
|
|
the [event relationship](#forming-relationships-between-events) until it finds a
|
|
|
|
thread root via an `m.thread` relation (as specified by the [threading
|
|
|
|
module](#threading)), however it is not recommended that the server traverse
|
|
|
|
infinitely. Instead, implementations are encouraged to do a maximum of 3 hops to
|
|
|
|
find a thread before deciding that the event does not belong to a thread. This
|
|
|
|
is primarily to ensure that future events, like `m.reaction`, are correctly
|
|
|
|
considered "part of" a given thread.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Server behaviour
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When receiving a new event homeservers process push rules for each of the local
|
|
|
|
users in the room (excluding the sender). This may result in:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Generating a new number of unread notifications for the user.
|
|
|
|
* Making a request to the configured push gateway.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The updated notification count from a new event MUST appear in the same `/sync`
|
|
|
|
response as the event itself.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### 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.
