This module implements the push rules & notifications portion of the Matrix
specification.
There's a few related features:
* Push notifications (i.e. email or outgoing requests to a Push Gateway).
* Calculation of unread notifications (for /sync and /notifications).
When Synapse receives a new event (locally, via the Client-Server API, or via
federation), the following occurs:
1. The push rules get evaluated to generate a set of per-user actions.
2. The event is persisted into the database.
3. (In the background) The notifier is notified about the new event.
The per-user actions are initially stored in the event_push_actions_staging table,
before getting moved into the event_push_actions table when the event is persisted.
The event_push_actions table is periodically summarised into the event_push_summary
and event_push_summary_stream_ordering tables.
Since push actions block an event from being persisted the generation of push
actions is performance sensitive.
The general interaction of the classes are:
+---------------------------------------------+
| FederationEventHandler/EventCreationHandler |
+---------------------------------------------+
|
v
+-----------------+
| ActionGenerator |
+-----------------+
|
v
+-----------------------+ +---------------------------+
| BulkPushRuleEvaluator |---->| PushRuleEvaluatorForEvent |
+-----------------------+ +---------------------------+
|
v
+-----------------------------+
| EventPushActionsWorkerStore |
+-----------------------------+
The notifier notifies the pusher pool of the new event, which checks for affected
users. Each user-configured pusher of the affected users then performs the
previously calculated action.
The general interaction of the classes are:
+----------+
| Notifier |
+----------+
|
v
+------------+ +--------------+
| PusherPool |---->| PusherConfig |
+------------+ +--------------+
|
| +---------------+
+<--->| PusherFactory |
| +---------------+
v
+------------------------+ +-----------------------------------------------+
| EmailPusher/HttpPusher |---->| EventPushActionsWorkerStore/PusherWorkerStore |
+------------------------+ +-----------------------------------------------+
|
v
+-------------------------+
| Mailer/SimpleHttpClient |
+-------------------------+
The Pusher instance also calls out to various utilities for generating payloads
(or email templates), but those interactions are not detailed in this diagram
(and are specific to the type of pusher).
