Upgrading Synapse
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
Before upgrading check if any special steps are required to upgrade from the
|
|
what you currently have installed to current version of synapse. The extra
|
|
instructions that may be required are listed later in this document.
|
|
|
|
1. If synapse was installed in a virtualenv then active that virtualenv before
|
|
upgrading. If synapse is installed in a virtualenv in ``~/.synapse/`` then
|
|
run:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
source ~/.synapse/bin/activate
|
|
|
|
2. If synapse was installed using pip then upgrade to the latest version by
|
|
running:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
pip install --upgrade --process-dependency-links matrix-synapse
|
|
|
|
# restart synapse
|
|
synctl restart
|
|
|
|
|
|
If synapse was installed using git then upgrade to the latest version by
|
|
running:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
# Pull the latest version of the master branch.
|
|
git pull
|
|
# Update the versions of synapse's python dependencies.
|
|
python synapse/python_dependencies.py | xargs pip install --upgrade
|
|
|
|
# restart synapse
|
|
./synctl restart
|
|
|
|
|
|
To check whether your update was sucessful, you can check the Server header
|
|
returned by the Client-Server API:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
# replace <host.name> with the hostname of your synapse homeserver.
|
|
# You may need to specify a port (eg, :8448) if your server is not
|
|
# configured on port 443.
|
|
curl -kv https://<host.name>/_matrix/client/versions 2>&1 | grep "Server:"
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.34.0
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
1. This release is the first to fully support Python 3. Synapse will now run on
|
|
Python versions 3.5, or 3.6 (as well as 2.7). We recommend switching to
|
|
Python 3, as it has been shown to give performance improvements.
|
|
|
|
For users who have installed Synapse into a virtualenv, we recommend doing
|
|
this by creating a new virtualenv. For example::
|
|
|
|
virtualenv -p python3 ~/synapse/env3
|
|
source ~/synapse/env3/bin/activate
|
|
pip install matrix-synapse
|
|
|
|
You can then start synapse as normal, having activated the new virtualenv::
|
|
|
|
cd ~/synapse
|
|
source env3/bin/activate
|
|
synctl start
|
|
|
|
Users who have installed from distribution packages should see the relevant
|
|
package documentation. See below for notes on Debian packages.
|
|
|
|
* When upgrading to Python 3, you **must** make sure that your log files are
|
|
configured as UTF-8, by adding ``encoding: utf8`` to the
|
|
``RotatingFileHandler`` configuration (if you have one) in your
|
|
``<server>.log.config`` file. For example, if your ``log.config`` file
|
|
contains::
|
|
|
|
handlers:
|
|
file:
|
|
class: logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler
|
|
formatter: precise
|
|
filename: homeserver.log
|
|
maxBytes: 104857600
|
|
backupCount: 10
|
|
filters: [context]
|
|
console:
|
|
class: logging.StreamHandler
|
|
formatter: precise
|
|
filters: [context]
|
|
|
|
Then you should update this to be::
|
|
|
|
handlers:
|
|
file:
|
|
class: logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler
|
|
formatter: precise
|
|
filename: homeserver.log
|
|
maxBytes: 104857600
|
|
backupCount: 10
|
|
filters: [context]
|
|
encoding: utf8
|
|
console:
|
|
class: logging.StreamHandler
|
|
formatter: precise
|
|
filters: [context]
|
|
|
|
There is no need to revert this change if downgrading to Python 2.
|
|
|
|
We are also making available Debian packages which will run Synapse on
|
|
Python 3. You can switch to these packages with ``apt-get install
|
|
matrix-synapse-py3``, however, please read `debian/NEWS
|
|
<https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v0.34.0/debian/NEWS>`_
|
|
before doing so. The existing ``matrix-synapse`` packages will continue to
|
|
use Python 2 for the time being.
|
|
|
|
2. This release removes the ``riot.im`` from the default list of trusted
|
|
identity servers.
|
|
|
|
If ``riot.im`` is in your homeserver's list of
|
|
``trusted_third_party_id_servers``, you should remove it. It was added in
|
|
case a hypothetical future identity server was put there. If you don't
|
|
remove it, users may be unable to deactivate their accounts.
|
|
|
|
3. This release no longer installs the (unmaintained) Matrix Console web client
|
|
as part of the default installation. It is possible to re-enable it by
|
|
installing it separately and setting the ``web_client_location`` config
|
|
option, but please consider switching to another client.
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.33.7
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
This release removes the example email notification templates from
|
|
``res/templates`` (they are now internal to the python package). This should
|
|
only affect you if you (a) deploy your Synapse instance from a git checkout or
|
|
a github snapshot URL, and (b) have email notifications enabled.
|
|
|
|
If you have email notifications enabled, you should ensure that
|
|
``email.template_dir`` is either configured to point at a directory where you
|
|
have installed customised templates, or leave it unset to use the default
|
|
templates.
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.27.3
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
This release expands the anonymous usage stats sent if the opt-in
|
|
``report_stats`` configuration is set to ``true``. We now capture RSS memory
|
|
and cpu use at a very coarse level. This requires administrators to install
|
|
the optional ``psutil`` python module.
|
|
|
|
We would appreciate it if you could assist by ensuring this module is available
|
|
and ``report_stats`` is enabled. This will let us see if performance changes to
|
|
synapse are having an impact to the general community.
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.15.0
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
If you want to use the new URL previewing API (/_matrix/media/r0/preview_url)
|
|
then you have to explicitly enable it in the config and update your dependencies
|
|
dependencies. See README.rst for details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.11.0
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
This release includes the option to send anonymous usage stats to matrix.org,
|
|
and requires that administrators explictly opt in or out by setting the
|
|
``report_stats`` option to either ``true`` or ``false``.
|
|
|
|
We would really appreciate it if you could help our project out by reporting
|
|
anonymized usage statistics from your homeserver. Only very basic aggregate
|
|
data (e.g. number of users) will be reported, but it helps us to track the
|
|
growth of the Matrix community, and helps us to make Matrix a success, as well
|
|
as to convince other networks that they should peer with us.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.9.0
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Application services have had a breaking API change in this version.
|
|
|
|
They can no longer register themselves with a home server using the AS HTTP API. This
|
|
decision was made because a compromised application service with free reign to register
|
|
any regex in effect grants full read/write access to the home server if a regex of ``.*``
|
|
is used. An attack where a compromised AS re-registers itself with ``.*`` was deemed too
|
|
big of a security risk to ignore, and so the ability to register with the HS remotely has
|
|
been removed.
|
|
|
|
It has been replaced by specifying a list of application service registrations in
|
|
``homeserver.yaml``::
|
|
|
|
app_service_config_files: ["registration-01.yaml", "registration-02.yaml"]
|
|
|
|
Where ``registration-01.yaml`` looks like::
|
|
|
|
url: <String> # e.g. "https://my.application.service.com"
|
|
as_token: <String>
|
|
hs_token: <String>
|
|
sender_localpart: <String> # This is a new field which denotes the user_id localpart when using the AS token
|
|
namespaces:
|
|
users:
|
|
- exclusive: <Boolean>
|
|
regex: <String> # e.g. "@prefix_.*"
|
|
aliases:
|
|
- exclusive: <Boolean>
|
|
regex: <String>
|
|
rooms:
|
|
- exclusive: <Boolean>
|
|
regex: <String>
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.8.0
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Servers which use captchas will need to add their public key to::
|
|
|
|
static/client/register/register_config.js
|
|
|
|
window.matrixRegistrationConfig = {
|
|
recaptcha_public_key: "YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY"
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
This is required in order to support registration fallback (typically used on
|
|
mobile devices).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.7.0
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
New dependencies are:
|
|
|
|
- pydenticon
|
|
- simplejson
|
|
- syutil
|
|
- matrix-angular-sdk
|
|
|
|
To pull in these dependencies in a virtual env, run::
|
|
|
|
python synapse/python_dependencies.py | xargs -n 1 pip install
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.6.0
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
To pull in new dependencies, run::
|
|
|
|
python setup.py develop --user
|
|
|
|
This update includes a change to the database schema. To upgrade you first need
|
|
to upgrade the database by running::
|
|
|
|
python scripts/upgrade_db_to_v0.6.0.py <db> <server_name> <signing_key>
|
|
|
|
Where `<db>` is the location of the database, `<server_name>` is the
|
|
server name as specified in the synapse configuration, and `<signing_key>` is
|
|
the location of the signing key as specified in the synapse configuration.
|
|
|
|
This may take some time to complete. Failures of signatures and content hashes
|
|
can safely be ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.5.1
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Depending on precisely when you installed v0.5.0 you may have ended up with
|
|
a stale release of the reference matrix webclient installed as a python module.
|
|
To uninstall it and ensure you are depending on the latest module, please run::
|
|
|
|
$ pip uninstall syweb
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.5.0
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
The webclient has been split out into a seperate repository/pacakage in this
|
|
release. Before you restart your homeserver you will need to pull in the
|
|
webclient package by running::
|
|
|
|
python setup.py develop --user
|
|
|
|
This release completely changes the database schema and so requires upgrading
|
|
it before starting the new version of the homeserver.
|
|
|
|
The script "database-prepare-for-0.5.0.sh" should be used to upgrade the
|
|
database. This will save all user information, such as logins and profiles,
|
|
but will otherwise purge the database. This includes messages, which
|
|
rooms the home server was a member of and room alias mappings.
|
|
|
|
If you would like to keep your history, please take a copy of your database
|
|
file and ask for help in #matrix:matrix.org. The upgrade process is,
|
|
unfortunately, non trivial and requires human intervention to resolve any
|
|
resulting conflicts during the upgrade process.
|
|
|
|
Before running the command the homeserver should be first completely
|
|
shutdown. To run it, simply specify the location of the database, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
./scripts/database-prepare-for-0.5.0.sh "homeserver.db"
|
|
|
|
Once this has successfully completed it will be safe to restart the
|
|
homeserver. You may notice that the homeserver takes a few seconds longer to
|
|
restart than usual as it reinitializes the database.
|
|
|
|
On startup of the new version, users can either rejoin remote rooms using room
|
|
aliases or by being reinvited. Alternatively, if any other homeserver sends a
|
|
message to a room that the homeserver was previously in the local HS will
|
|
automatically rejoin the room.
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.4.0
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
This release needs an updated syutil version. Run::
|
|
|
|
python setup.py develop
|
|
|
|
You will also need to upgrade your configuration as the signing key format has
|
|
changed. Run::
|
|
|
|
python -m synapse.app.homeserver --config-path <CONFIG> --generate-config
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.3.0
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
This registration API now closely matches the login API. This introduces a bit
|
|
more backwards and forwards between the HS and the client, but this improves
|
|
the overall flexibility of the API. You can now GET on /register to retrieve a list
|
|
of valid registration flows. Upon choosing one, they are submitted in the same
|
|
way as login, e.g::
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
type: m.login.password,
|
|
user: foo,
|
|
password: bar
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
The default HS supports 2 flows, with and without Identity Server email
|
|
authentication. Enabling captcha on the HS will add in an extra step to all
|
|
flows: ``m.login.recaptcha`` which must be completed before you can transition
|
|
to the next stage. There is a new login type: ``m.login.email.identity`` which
|
|
contains the ``threepidCreds`` key which were previously sent in the original
|
|
register request. For more information on this, see the specification.
|
|
|
|
Web Client
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
The VoIP specification has changed between v0.2.0 and v0.3.0. Users should
|
|
refresh any browser tabs to get the latest web client code. Users on
|
|
v0.2.0 of the web client will not be able to call those on v0.3.0 and
|
|
vice versa.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.2.0
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
The home server now requires setting up of SSL config before it can run. To
|
|
automatically generate default config use::
|
|
|
|
$ python synapse/app/homeserver.py \
|
|
--server-name machine.my.domain.name \
|
|
--bind-port 8448 \
|
|
--config-path homeserver.config \
|
|
--generate-config
|
|
|
|
This config can be edited if desired, for example to specify a different SSL
|
|
certificate to use. Once done you can run the home server using::
|
|
|
|
$ python synapse/app/homeserver.py --config-path homeserver.config
|
|
|
|
See the README.rst for more information.
|
|
|
|
Also note that some config options have been renamed, including:
|
|
|
|
- "host" to "server-name"
|
|
- "database" to "database-path"
|
|
- "port" to "bind-port" and "unsecure-port"
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upgrading to v0.0.1
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
This release completely changes the database schema and so requires upgrading
|
|
it before starting the new version of the homeserver.
|
|
|
|
The script "database-prepare-for-0.0.1.sh" should be used to upgrade the
|
|
database. This will save all user information, such as logins and profiles,
|
|
but will otherwise purge the database. This includes messages, which
|
|
rooms the home server was a member of and room alias mappings.
|
|
|
|
Before running the command the homeserver should be first completely
|
|
shutdown. To run it, simply specify the location of the database, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
./scripts/database-prepare-for-0.0.1.sh "homeserver.db"
|
|
|
|
Once this has successfully completed it will be safe to restart the
|
|
homeserver. You may notice that the homeserver takes a few seconds longer to
|
|
restart than usual as it reinitializes the database.
|
|
|
|
On startup of the new version, users can either rejoin remote rooms using room
|
|
aliases or by being reinvited. Alternatively, if any other homeserver sends a
|
|
message to a room that the homeserver was previously in the local HS will
|
|
automatically rejoin the room.
|
