Changes in synapse v0.10.0-rc1 (2015-08-20)
===========================================
Also see v0.9.4-rc1 changelog, which has been amalgamated into this release.
General:
* Upgrade to Twisted 15 (PR #173)
* Add support for serving and fetching encryption keys over federation.
(PR #208)
* Add support for logging in with email address (PR #234)
* Add support for new ``m.room.canonical_alias`` event. (PR #233)
* Error if a user tries to register with an email already in use. (PR #211)
* Add extra and improve existing caches (PR #212, #219, #226, #228)
* Batch various storage request (PR #226, #228)
* Fix bug where we didn't correctly log the entity that triggered the request
if the request came in via an application service (PR #230)
* Fix bug where we needlessly regenerated the full list of rooms an AS is
interested in. (PR #232)
* Add support for AS's to use v2_alpha registration API (PR #210)
Configuration:
* Add ``--generate-keys`` that will generate any missing cert and key files in
the configuration files. This is equivalent to running ``--generate-config``
on an existing configuration file. (PR #220)
* ``--generate-config`` now no longer requires a ``--server-name`` parameter
when used on existing configuration files. (PR #220)
* Add ``--print-pidfile`` flag that controls the printing of the pid to stdout
of the demonised process. (PR #213)
Media Repository:
* Fix bug where we picked a lower resolution image than requested. (PR #205)
* Add support for specifying if a the media repository should dynamically
thumbnail images or not. (PR #206)
Metrics:
* Add statistics from the reactor to the metrics API. (PR #224, #225)
Demo Homeservers:
* Fix starting the demo homeservers without rate-limiting enabled. (PR #182)
* Fix enabling registration on demo homeservers (PR #223)
Changes in synapse v0.9.4-rc1 (2015-07-21)
==========================================
General:
* Add basic implementation of receipts. (SPEC-99)
* Add support for configuration presets in room creation API. (PR #203)
* Add auth event that limits the visibility of history for new users.
(SPEC-134)
* Add SAML2 login/registration support. (PR #201. Thanks Muthu Subramanian!)
* Add client side key management APIs for end to end encryption. (PR #198)
* Change power level semantics so that you cannot kick, ban or change power
levels of users that have equal or greater power level than you. (SYN-192)
* Improve performance by bulk inserting events where possible. (PR #193)
* Improve performance by bulk verifying signatures where possible. (PR #194)
Configuration:
* Add support for including TLS certificate chains.
Media Repository:
* Add Content-Disposition headers to content repository responses. (SYN-150)

The advantages of Postgres include:
* significant performance improvements due to the superior threading and
caching model, smarter query optimiser
* allowing the DB to be run on separate hardware
* allowing basic active/backup high-availability with a "hot spare" synapse
pointing at the same DB master, as well as enabling DB replication in
synapse itself.

The only disadvantage is that the code is relatively new as of April 2015 and
may have a few regressions relative to SQLite.

Upgrading an existing Synapse
=============================
IMPORTANT: Before upgrading an existing synapse to a new version, please
refer to UPGRADE.rst for any additional instructions.
Otherwise, simply re-install the new codebase over the current one - e.g.
by ``pip install --process-dependency-links
https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tarball/master``
if using pip, or by ``git pull`` if running off a git working copy.
The instructions for upgrading synapse are in `UPGRADE.rst`_.
Please check these instructions as upgrading may require extra steps for some
versions of synapse.

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.
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
If synapse was installed using pip then upgrade to the latest version by
running:
.. code:: bash
pip install --upgrade --process-dependency-links https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tarball/master
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 -n1 pip install
