This is useful for when we start defining event schemas. This also has a sanity check for ensuring the directory exists, allowing the IS and push API paths to be uncommented.
Fixes https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues/1161
The IP address clarification is to add an explicit mention of how to handle the case. The prior documentation assumed that all servers would be resolvable with DNS, and does technically have a fallback to use the fallback port, however making it clear feels like a good idea.
This intentionally doesn't document the third party network aspect of the endpoint. This is scheduled for a later area for dealing with third party network/IDs and is reported as https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues/1476
The client-server response has been broken out to a shared file: both the client-server and server-server /publicRoom endpoints return the same thing, with slightly different inputs.
The inputs (and behaviour) are based upon the docstring here: 43ecfe0b10/synapse/federation/transport/server.py (L583-L612)
This also adds a previously-undocumented endpoint: /state_ids
Backfill is technically not part of this section, however it is being left untouched to make the merge with #1469 easier (which moves it out of the file).
Reference material:
* Some calls to synapse on these endpoints with a relatively simple private room.
The response is based upon various sections of the Synapse code in how it generates a response.
There are no new fields added to the transaction. Originally, `previous_ids` and `pdu_failures` were to be documented however neither of these are used in the real world.
jsonschema's resolver doesn't work with local files on Windows.
resolve_references only works with the local files (on Windows as well)
but that's exactly what's needed for the case (as long as we don't have
remote references, that is).
