# Presence Routing Module
Synapse supports configuring a module that can specify additional users
(local or remote) to should receive certain presence updates from local
users.
The presence routing module is implemented as a Python class, which will be imported by
the running Synapse.
## Python Presence Router Class
The Python class is instantiated with two objects:
* A configuration object of some type (see below).
* An instance of `synapse.module_api.ModuleApi`.
It then implements methods related to presence routing.
Note that one method of `ModuleApi` that may be useful is:
```python
async def ModuleApi.send_local_online_presence_to(users: Iterable[str]) -> None
```
which can be given a list of local or remote MXIDs to broadcast known, online user
presence to (for those users that the receiving user is considered interested in).
It does not include state for users who are currently offline.
### Example
Below is an example implementation of a presence router class.
```python
from typing import Dict, Iterable, Set, Union
from typing_extensions import Literal
from synapse.handlers.presence import UserPresenceState
from synapse.module_api import ModuleApi
class PresenceRouterConfig:
def __init__(self):
# Config options with their defaults
# A list of users to always send all user presence updates to
self.always_send_to_users = [] # type: List[str]
# A list of users to ignore presence updates for. Does not affect
# shared-room presence relationships
self.blacklisted_users = [] # type: List[str]
class ExamplePresenceRouter:
"""An example implementation of synapse.presence_router.PresenceRouter.
Supports routing all presence to a configured set of users, or a subset
of presence from certain users to members of certain rooms.
Args:
config: A configuration object.
module_api: An instance of Synapse's ModuleApi.
"""
def __init__(self, config: PresenceRouterConfig, module_api: ModuleApi):
self._config = config
self._module_api = module_api
@staticmethod
def parse_config(config_dict: dict) -> PresenceRouterConfig:
"""Parse a configuration dictionary from the homeserver config, do
some validation and return a typed PresenceRouterConfig.
Args:
config_dict: The configuration dictionary.
Returns:
A validated config object.
"""
# Initialise a typed config object
config = PresenceRouterConfig()
always_send_to_users = config_dict.get("always_send_to_users")
blacklisted_users = config_dict.get("blacklisted_users")
# Do some validation of config options... otherwise raise a
# synapse.config.ConfigError.
config.always_send_to_users = always_send_to_users
config.blacklisted_users = blacklisted_users
return config
async def get_users_for_states(
self,
state_updates: Iterable[UserPresenceState],
) -> Dict[str, Set[UserPresenceState]]:
"""Given an iterable of user presence updates, determine where each one
needs to go. Returned results will not affect presence updates that are
sent between users who share a room.
Args:
state_updates: An iterable of user presence state updates.
Returns:
A dictionary of user_id -> set of UserPresenceState that the user should
receive.
"""
destination_users = {} # type: Dict[str, Set[UserPresenceState]
# Ignore any updates for blacklisted users
desired_updates = set()
for update in state_updates:
if update.state_key not in self._config.blacklisted_users:
desired_updates.add(update)
# Send all presence updates to specific users
for user_id in self._config.always_send_to_users:
destination_users[user_id] = desired_updates
return destination_users
async def get_interested_users(self, user_id: str) -> Union[Set[str], Literal["ALL"]]:
"""
Retrieve a list of users that `user_id` is interested in receiving the
presence of. This will be in addition to those they share a room with.
Optionally, the literal str "ALL" can be returned to indicate that this user
should receive all incoming local and remote presence updates.
Note that this method will only be called for local users.
Args:
user_id: A user requesting presence updates.
Returns:
A set of user IDs to return additional presence updates for, or "ALL" to return
presence updates for all other users.
"""
if user_id in self._config.always_send_to_users:
return "ALL"
return set()
```
#### A note on `get_users_for_states` and `get_interested_users`
Both of these methods are effectively two different sides of the same coin. The logic
regarding which users should receive updates for other users should be the same
between them.
`get_users_for_states` is called when presence updates come in from either federation
or local users, and is used to either direct local presence to remote users, or to
wake up the sync streams of local users to collect remote presence.
In contrast, `get_interested_users` is used to determine the users that presence should
be fetched for when a local user is syncing. This presence in then retrieved, before
being fed through `get_users_for_states` once again, with only the syncing user's
routing information pulled from the resulting dictionary.
Thus, if one method is implemented, the other should be as well. Their routing logic
should line up as well, else you may run into unintended behaviour.
## Configuration
Once you've crafted your module and installed it into the same Python environment as
Synapse, amend your homeserver config file with the following.
```yaml
presence:
routing_module:
module: my_module.ExamplePresenceRouter
config:
# Any configuration options for your module. The below is an example.
# of setting options for ExamplePresenceRouter.
always_send_to_users: ["@presence_gobbler:example.org"]
blacklisted_users:
- "@alice:example.com"
- "@bob:example.com"
...
```
The contents of `config` will be passed as a Python dictionary to the static
`parse_config` method of your class. The object returned by this method will
then be passed to the `__init__` method of your module as `config`.
