Additionally, here is a list of known +password auth provider module implementations:</p> +<ul> +<li><a href="https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-synapse-ldap3/">matrix-synapse-ldap3</a></li> +<li><a href="https://github.com/devture/matrix-synapse-shared-secret-auth">matrix-synapse-shared-secret-auth</a></li> +<li><a href="https://github.com/ma1uta/matrix-synapse-rest-password-provider">matrix-synapse-rest-password-provider</a></li> +</ul> +<h2 id="required-methods"><a class="header" href="#required-methods">Required methods</a></h2> +<p>Password auth provider classes must provide the following methods:</p> +<ul> +<li> +<p><code>parse_config(config)</code> +This method is passed the <code>config</code> object for this module from the +homeserver configuration file.</p> +<p>It should perform any appropriate sanity checks on the provided +configuration, and return an object which is then passed into +<code>__init__</code>.</p> +<p>This method should have the <code>@staticmethod</code> decoration.</p> +</li> +<li> +<p><code>__init__(self, config, account_handler)</code></p> +<p>The constructor is passed the config object returned by +<code>parse_config</code>, and a <code>synapse.module_api.ModuleApi</code> object which +allows the password provider to check if accounts exist and/or create +new ones.</p> +</li> +</ul> +<h2 id="optional-methods"><a class="header" href="#optional-methods">Optional methods</a></h2> +<p>Password auth provider classes may optionally provide the following methods:</p> +<ul> +<li> +<p><code>get_db_schema_files(self)</code></p> +<p>This method, if implemented, should return an Iterable of +<code>(name, stream)</code> pairs of database schema files. Each file is applied +in turn at initialisation, and a record is then made in the database +so that it is not re-applied on the next start.</p> +</li> +<li> +<p><code>get_supported_login_types(self)</code></p> +<p>This method, if implemented, should return a <code>dict</code> mapping from a +login type identifier (such as <code>m.login.password</code>) to an iterable +giving the fields which must be provided by the user in the submission +to <a href="https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/latest#post-matrix-client-r0-login">the <code>/login</code> API</a>. +These fields are passed in the <code>login_dict</code> dictionary to <code>check_auth</code>.</p> +<p>For example, if a password auth provider wants to implement a custom +login type of <code>com.example.custom_login</code>, where the client is expected +to pass the fields <code>secret1</code> and <code>secret2</code>, the provider should +implement this method and return the following dict:</p> +<pre><code class="language-python">{"com.example.custom_login": ("secret1", "secret2")} +</code></pre> +</li> +<li> +<p><code>check_auth(self, username, login_type, login_dict)</code></p> +<p>This method does the real work. If implemented, it +will be called for each login attempt where the login type matches one +of the keys returned by <code>get_supported_login_types</code>.</p> +<p>It is passed the (possibly unqualified) <code>user</code> field provided by the client, +the login type, and a dictionary of login secrets passed by the +client.</p> +<p>The method should return an <code>Awaitable</code> object, which resolves +to the canonical <code>@localpart:domain</code> user ID if authentication is +successful, and <code>None</code> if not.</p> +<p>Alternatively, the <code>Awaitable</code> can resolve to a <code>(str, func)</code> tuple, in +which case the second field is a callback which will be called with +the result from the <code>/login</code> call (including <code>access_token</code>, +<code>device_id</code>, etc.)</p> +</li> +<li> +<p><code>check_3pid_auth(self, medium, address, password)</code></p> +<p>This method, if implemented, is called when a user attempts to +register or log in with a third party identifier, such as email. It is +passed the medium (ex. "email"), an address (ex. +"<a href="mailto:jdoe@example.com">jdoe@example.com</a>") and the user's password.</p> +<p>The method should return an <code>Awaitable</code> object, which resolves +to a <code>str</code> containing the user's (canonical) User id if +authentication was successful, and <code>None</code> if not.</p> +<p>As with <code>check_auth</code>, the <code>Awaitable</code> may alternatively resolve to a +<code>(user_id, callback)</code> tuple.</p> +</li> +<li> +<p><code>check_password(self, user_id, password)</code></p> +<p>This method provides a simpler interface than +<code>get_supported_login_types</code> and <code>check_auth</code> for password auth +providers that just want to provide a mechanism for validating +<code>m.login.password</code> logins.</p> +<p>If implemented, it will be called to check logins with an +<code>m.login.password</code> login type. It is passed a qualified +<code>@localpart:domain</code> user id, and the password provided by the user.</p> +<p>The method should return an <code>Awaitable</code> object, which resolves +to <code>True</code> if authentication is successful, and <code>False</code> if not.</p> +</li> +<li> +<p><code>on_logged_out(self, user_id, device_id, access_token)</code></p> +<p>This method, if implemented, is called when a user logs out. It is +passed the qualified user ID, the ID of the deactivated device (if +any: access tokens are occasionally created without an associated +device ID), and the (now deactivated) access token.</p> +<p>It may return an <code>Awaitable</code> object; the logout request will +wait for the <code>Awaitable</code> to complete, but the result is ignored.</p> +</li> +</ul> + + </main> + + <nav class="nav-wrapper" aria-label="Page navigation"> + <!-- Mobile navigation buttons --> + + <a rel="prev" href="sso_mapping_providers.html" class="mobile-nav-chapters previous" title="Previous chapter" aria-label="Previous chapter" aria-keyshortcuts="Left"> + <i class="fa fa-angle-left"></i> + </a> + + + + <a rel="next" href="jwt.html" class="mobile-nav-chapters next" title="Next chapter" aria-label="Next chapter" aria-keyshortcuts="Right"> + <i class="fa fa-angle-right"></i> + </a> + + + <div style="clear: both"></div> + </nav> + </div> + </div> + + <nav class="nav-wide-wrapper" aria-label="Page navigation"> + + <a rel="prev" href="sso_mapping_providers.html" class="nav-chapters previous" title="Previous chapter" aria-label="Previous chapter" aria-keyshortcuts="Left"> + <i class="fa fa-angle-left"></i> + </a> + + + + <a rel="next" href="jwt.html" class="nav-chapters next" title="Next chapter" aria-label="Next chapter" aria-keyshortcuts="Right"> + <i class="fa fa-angle-right"></i> + </a> + + </nav> + + </div> + + + + + + + + + <script type="text/javascript"> + window.playground_copyable = true; + </script> + + + + + + <script src="elasticlunr.min.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script> + <script src="mark.min.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script> + <script src="searcher.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script> + + + <script src="clipboard.min.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script> + <script src="highlight.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script> + <script src="book.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script> + + <!-- Custom JS scripts --> + + <script type="text/javascript" src="docs/website_files/table-of-contents.js"></script> + + + + + </body> +</html> \ No newline at end of file |
