From a68b48a5dd0b617f12677b137742b813a2d805bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shay Date: Mon, 22 Jan 2024 05:59:45 -0800 Subject: Allow room creation but not publishing to continue if room publication rules are violated when creating a new room. (#16811) Prior to this PR, if a request to create a public (public as in published to the rooms directory) room violated the room list publication rules set in the [config](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#room_list_publication_rules), the request to create the room was denied and the room was not created. This PR changes the behavior such that when a request to create a room published to the directory violates room list publication rules, the room is still created but the room is not published to the directory. --- changelog.d/16811.misc | 2 + docs/usage/configuration/config_documentation.md | 3 ++ synapse/handlers/room.py | 6 +-- tests/config/test_room_directory.py | 37 ++++++++++++++++- tests/handlers/test_directory.py | 51 +++++++++++------------- 5 files changed, 65 insertions(+), 34 deletions(-) create mode 100644 changelog.d/16811.misc diff --git a/changelog.d/16811.misc b/changelog.d/16811.misc new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..f48dd91c8c --- /dev/null +++ b/changelog.d/16811.misc @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +Allow room creation but not publishing to continue if room publication rules are violated when creating +a new room. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/docs/usage/configuration/config_documentation.md b/docs/usage/configuration/config_documentation.md index 8723b9a3fe..638a459ed5 100644 --- a/docs/usage/configuration/config_documentation.md +++ b/docs/usage/configuration/config_documentation.md @@ -3959,6 +3959,9 @@ The first rule that matches decides if the request is allowed or denied.
