The function is used for two purposes: 1) for subscribers of streams to get a token they can use to get further updates with, and 2) for replication to track position of the writers of the stream. For streams with a single writer the two scenarios produce the same result, however the situation becomes complicated for streams with multiple writers. The current `MultiWriterIdGenerator` does not correctly handle the first case (which is not an issue as its only used for the `caches` stream which nothing subscribes to outside of replication).

For streams with single writers this is equivalent to | ||
`get_current_token`. |

I'm not 100% sure I see where this is going, but it seems reasonable.
Would it make sense to have something to show that SlavedIdTracker
/ StreamIdGenerator
/ ChainedIdGenerator
/ MultiWriterIdGenerator
implement some of the same interface?
I'm basically going to be doing some funky stuff with the multi writer ID gen
Yeah, I think that is probably a good idea, though I'll leave that for now while I'm still trying to figure out exactly where this is going |
Synapse 1.20.0rc1 (2020-09-08) ============================== Removal warning --------------- Some older clients used a [disallowed character](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.1#post-matrix-client-r0-register-email-requesttoken) (`:`) in the `client_secret` parameter of various endpoints. The incorrect behaviour was allowed for backwards compatibility, but is now being removed from Synapse as most users have updated their client. Further context can be found at [\#6766](#6766). Features -------- - Add an endpoint to query your shared rooms with another user as an implementation of [MSC2666](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2666).

Synapse 1.20.0 (2020-09-22) =========================== No significant changes since v1.20.0rc5. Removal warning --------------- Historically, the [Synapse Admin API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs) has been accessible under the `/_matrix/client/api/v1/admin`, `/_matrix/client/unstable/admin`, `/_matrix/client/r0/admin` and `/_synapse/admin` prefixes. In a future release, we will be dropping support for accessing Synapse's Admin API using the `/_matrix/client/*` prefixes. This makes it easier for homeserver admins to lock down external access to the Admin API endpoints. Synapse 1.20.0rc5 (2020-09-18) ============================== In addition to the below, Synapse 1.20.0rc5 also includes the bug fix that was included in 1.19.3. Features -------- - Add flags to the `/versions` endpoint for whether new rooms default to using E2EE. ([\#8343](matrix-org/synapse#8343)) Bugfixes -------- - Fix rate limiting of federation `/send` requests. ([\#8342](matrix-org/synapse#8342)) - Fix a longstanding bug where back pagination over federation could get stuck if it failed to handle a received event. ([\#8349](matrix-org/synapse#8349)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Blacklist [MSC2753](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2753) SyTests until it is implemented. ([\#8285](matrix-org/synapse#8285)) Synapse 1.20.0rc4 (2020-09-16) ============================== Synapse 1.20.0rc4 is identical to 1.20.0rc3, with the addition of the security fix that was included in 1.19.2. Synapse 1.20.0rc3 (2020-09-11) ============================== Bugfixes -------- - Fix a bug introduced in v1.20.0rc1 where the wrong exception was raised when invalid JSON data is encountered. ([\#8291](matrix-org/synapse#8291)) Synapse 1.20.0rc2 (2020-09-09) ============================== Bugfixes -------- - Fix a bug introduced in v1.20.0rc1 causing some features related to notifications to misbehave following the implementation of unread counts. ([\#8280](matrix-org/synapse#8280)) Synapse 1.20.0rc1 (2020-09-08) ============================== Removal warning --------------- Some older clients used a [disallowed character](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.1#post-matrix-client-r0-register-email-requesttoken) (`:`) in the `client_secret` parameter of various endpoints.

* commit 'c9c544cda': Remove `ChainedIdGenerator`. (#8123) Switch the JSON byte producer from a pull to a push producer. (#8116) Updated docs: Added note about missing 308 redirect support. (#8120) Be stricter about JSON that is accepted by Synapse (#8106) Convert runWithConnection to async. (#8121) Remove the unused inlineCallbacks code-paths in the caching code (#8119) Separate `get_current_token` into two. (#8113) Convert events worker database to async/await. (#8071) Add a link to the matrix-synapse-rest-password-provider. (#8111)
The function is used for two purposes: 1) for subscribers of streams to get a token they can use to get further updates with, and 2) for replication to track position of the writers of the stream.
For streams with a single writer the two scenarios produce the same result, however the situation becomes complicated for streams with multiple writers. The current
MultiWriterIdGenerator
does not correctly handle the first case (which is not an issue as its only used for thecaches
stream which nothing subscribes to outside of replication). Future PRs will flesh MultiWriterIdGenerator` out to support that case.Note: I've added it to all ID generators for consistency, though nothing uses them currently.
