Validate default homeserver config before loading the app
Implements the process described here: https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/9290#issuecomment-481966910 The expectation is that later layers (like the react-sdk) will make use of the `validated_discovery_config` option instead of interpreting the config themselves. We intentionally block the UI from loading here to avoid races between discovery and the app loading.pull/9496/head

@ -109,25 +109,29 @@ You can configure the app by copying `config.sample.json` to
|
|||
|
||||
For a good example, see https://riot.im/develop/config.json.
|
||||
|
||||
1. `default_server_name` sets the default server name to use for authentication.
|
||||
This will trigger Riot to ask
|
||||
`https://<server_name>/.well-known/matrix/client` for the homeserver and
|
||||
identity server URLs to use. This is the recommended approach for setting a
|
||||
default server. However, it is also possible to use the following to directly
|
||||
configure each of the URLs:
|
||||
* `default_hs_url` sets the default homeserver URL.
|
||||
* `default_is_url` sets the default identity server URL (this is the server used
|
||||
for verifying third party identifiers like email addresses). If this is blank,
|
||||
registering with an email address, adding an email address to your account,
|
||||
or inviting users via email address will not work. Matrix identity servers are
|
||||
very simple web services which map third party identifiers (currently only email
|
||||
addresses) to matrix IDs: see http://matrix.org/docs/spec/identity_service/unstable.html
|
||||
for more details. Currently the only public matrix identity servers are https://matrix.org
|
||||
and https://vector.im. In the future, identity servers will be decentralised.
|
||||
* Riot will report an error if you accidentally configure both `default_server_name` _and_ `default_hs_url` since it's unclear which should take priority.
|
||||
1. `default_server_config` sets the default homeserver and identity server URL for
|
||||
Riot to use. The object is the same as returned by [https://<server_name>/.well-known/matrix/client](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/latest.html#get-well-known-matrix-client),
|
||||
with added support for a `server_name` under the `m.homeserver` section to display
|
||||
a custom homeserver name. Alternatively, the config can contain a `default_server_name`
|
||||
instead which is where Riot will go to get that same object - see the `.well-known`
|
||||
link above for more information.
|
||||
* *Note*: The URLs can also be individually specified as `default_hs_url` and
|
||||
`default_is_url`, however these are deprecated. They are maintained for backwards
|
||||
compatibility with older configurations. `default_is_url` is respected only
|
||||
if `default_hs_url` is used.
|
||||
* The identity server is used for verifying third party identifiers like emails
|
||||
and phone numbers. It is not used to store your password or account information.
|
||||
If not provided, the identity server defaults to vector.im unless `disable_identity_server`
|
||||
is set to true in the config. Currently the only two public identity servers
|
||||
are https://matrix.org and https://vector.im, however in future identity servers
|
||||
will be decentralised.
|
||||
* Riot will fail to load if a mix of `default_server_config`, `default_server_name`, or
|
||||
`default_hs_url` is specified. When multiple sources are specified, it is unclear
|
||||
which should take priority and therefore the application cannot continue.
|
||||
1. `features`: Lookup of optional features that may be `enable`d, `disable`d, or exposed to the user
|
||||
in the `labs` section of settings. The available optional experimental features vary from
|
||||
release to release.
|
||||
release to release. Some of the available features are described in the Labs Feature section
|
||||
of this README.
|
||||
1. `brand`: String to pass to your homeserver when configuring email notifications, to let the
|
||||
homeserver know what email template to use when talking to you.
|
||||
1. `branding`: Configures various branding and logo details, such as:
