Upgrades matrix-js-sdk from 34.13.0 to 41.5.0. This crosses the v37
removal of the legacy libolm crypto stack, so E2EE is migrated to the
Rust crypto implementation. Also adds device verification, cross-signing
setup, and authenticated media support.
Dependencies
- Bump matrix-js-sdk ^34.13.0 -> ^41.5.0; require Node.js >= 22.
- Drop the `olm` dependency (legacy crypto only); add `fake-indexeddb`.
Rust crypto
- Replace initCrypto() with initRustCrypto(); the legacy crypto stack
was removed upstream in v37.
- Add src/matrix-crypto-store.js: the Rust crypto store requires
IndexedDB, absent in Node.js, so it is backed by fake-indexeddb and
snapshotted to disk (rust-crypto-store.v8) to survive restarts.
- Migrate existing libolm crypto state into the Rust store on first run,
and discard the stored crypto state when the device ID changes.
Homeserver discovery
- Resolve the homeserver via .well-known, so a delegating domain
(e.g. example.org) works as the configured server URL.
Cross-signing & secure backup
- Add a secured /matrix-chat/secure-backup admin endpoint and a modal
dialog on the server config node: check status, unlock an existing
secure backup with its recovery key, or reset and create a new one.
Device verification (new nodes)
- matrix-verification: event source emitting verification requests and
phase changes, with on-node filters (phase, initiated by, type,
self-verification, user allowlist, room).
- matrix-verification-action: request, accept, start SAS, confirm,
mismatch, or cancel an in-flight verification.
Authenticated media
- matrix-receive and matrix-crypt-file use the authenticated media
endpoints, send a bearer token via msg.headers, and fall back between
the v3 and v1 media endpoints on a 404.
Fixes
- Surface connection/auth errors in the log; node.error() calls were
passed an empty msg object, which routed the error and suppressed
console logging.
- matrix-get-user: await getProfileInfo()/getPresence().
- matrix-invite-room: pass the reason as the third invite() argument
(the removed callback parameter was shifting it out).
- Guard the verification handlers so a throwing SDK getter cannot crash
Node-RED.
Docs
- Add the device-verification example flow; update the READMEs and node
help, correcting stale claims that device verification, secure backup,
and encrypted file uploads were unsupported.
- Add new node `Get Event` that will give you room data for a corresponding roomId and eventId #117
- Add new node `Fetch Event Relations` that can paginate through events related to another event #119
- README updates
- Fix matrix-receive message types displaying in uppercase when it should be lowercase
- Readme updated with some extra things that are now possible since last release
- Link to matrix.org project in our README.md
- Can now access the matrix client globally so it can be used in function nodes (this way you are not limited by only the nodes we have published)
- Added example for using the Matrix Client in a function to redact messages. This should be a great example to show people what is possible.
- Session.logged_out events are now processed to display an error from the node (helps user figure out why their login failed).
- Update description for matrix-server-config
- Updated readme & examples
- Updated readme
- Support for e2ee is here! It's in beta as I am sure there are still things to do (such as adding a node for encrypting files as files currently are not encrypted).
- Added nodes for joining a room (and forcing users into a room), creating rooms, decrypting files, and inviting users to a room.
- matrix-synapse-register node name changed from "Synapse Register v1" to "Shared Secret Registration" to make it more self explanatory.
- matrix-receive node updated so that instead of selecting what events to ignore you select what events to listen on (this way it isn't a BC every time we add another event).
- matrix-receive now handles m.emote & m.sticker events
- matrix-server-config updated to now include the device ID and a checkbox to flag whether to enable e2ee support or not.
- matrix-synapse-create-edit-user.html updated to include link to the API docs'
- matrix-synapse-deactivate-user.html updated to include message about alternative way to deactivate users (in a way that is recoverable)
- matrix-synapse-register node does not need to display if connected or not since it users an entirely different API anyways
- matrix-synapse-users.html updated to include link to API docs
- change all references from msg.roomId to msg.topic to conform to Node-RED standards.
- Added node for listing Synapse users server-wide (as long as the caller is an admin)
- Events for Room.timeline are now handled by the server-config node and node's that listen for it bind a listener to that instead of the matrix client.
- Added kick and ban nodes for kicking/banning from a room
- Added node for fetching synapse user list using synapse admin API
- Added node for fetching whois data from a user using Matrix admin API
- Added node for deactivating users using the Synapse admin API
- Can register users using the Synapse admin endpoint v1 (yay legacy)
- Can add users using the Synapse admin endpoint v2
- Add more info to the readme.
- made input and output nodes more compatible with each other (for relay purposes).
- File/Image input nodes can be combined with a File In node now
- Remove console.log debug lines
- set version to 0.0.3
- send message node updated to handle message formats and types.
- Fixed ignore properties on matrix receive node not saving
- created basic readme
- WIP on node docs
