Upgrading to v0.x.x
===================
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It has been replaced by specifying a list of application service registrations in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
