# Password auth provider callbacks
Password auth providers offer a way for server administrators to integrate
their Synapse installation with an external authentication system. The callbacks can be
registered by using the Module API's `register_password_auth_provider_callbacks` method.
## Callbacks
### `auth_checkers`
_First introduced in Synapse v1.46.0_
```python
auth_checkers: Dict[Tuple[str, Tuple[str, ...]], Callable]
```
A dict mapping from tuples of a login type identifier (such as `m.login.password`) and a
tuple of field names (such as `("password", "secret_thing")`) to authentication checking
callbacks, which should be of the following form:
```python
async def check_auth(
user: str,
login_type: str,
login_dict: "synapse.module_api.JsonDict",
) -> Optional[
Tuple[
str,
Optional[Callable[["synapse.module_api.LoginResponse"], Awaitable[None]]]
]
]
```
The login type and field names should be provided by the user in the
request to the `/login` API. [The Matrix specification](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/latest#authentication-types)
defines some types, however user defined ones are also allowed.
The callback is passed the `user` field provided by the client (which might not be in
`@username:server` form), the login type, and a dictionary of login secrets passed by
the client.
If the authentication is successful, the module must return the user's Matrix ID (e.g.
`@alice:example.com`) and optionally a callback to be called with the response to the
`/login` request. If the module doesn't wish to return a callback, it must return `None`
instead.
If the authentication is unsuccessful, the module must return `None`.
If multiple modules register an auth checker for the same login type but with different
fields, Synapse will refuse to start.
If multiple modules register an auth checker for the same login type with the same fields,
then the callbacks will be executed in order, until one returns a Matrix User ID (and
optionally a callback). In that case, the return value of that callback will be accepted
and subsequent callbacks will not be fired. If every callback returns `None`, then the
authentication fails.
### `check_3pid_auth`
_First introduced in Synapse v1.46.0_
```python
async def check_3pid_auth(
medium: str,
address: str,
password: str,
) -> Optional[
Tuple[
str,
Optional[Callable[["synapse.module_api.LoginResponse"], Awaitable[None]]]
]
]
```
Called when a user attempts to register or log in with a third party identifier,
such as email. It is passed the medium (eg. `email`), an address (eg. `jdoe@example.com`)
and the user's password.
If the authentication is successful, the module must return the user's Matrix ID (e.g.
`@alice:example.com`) and optionally a callback to be called with the response to the `/login` request.
If the module doesn't wish to return a callback, it must return None instead.
If the authentication is unsuccessful, the module must return `None`.
If multiple modules implement this callback, they will be considered in order. If a
callback returns `None`, Synapse falls through to the next one. The value of the first
callback that does not return `None` will be used. If this happens, Synapse will not call
any of the subsequent implementations of this callback. If every callback return `None`,
the authentication is denied.
### `on_logged_out`
_First introduced in Synapse v1.46.0_
```python
async def on_logged_out(
user_id: str,
device_id: Optional[str],
access_token: str
) -> None
```
Called during a logout request for a user. It is passed the qualified user ID, the ID of the
deactivated device (if any: access tokens are occasionally created without an associated
device ID), and the (now deactivated) access token.
If multiple modules implement this callback, Synapse runs them all in order.
## Example
The example module below implements authentication checkers for two different login types:
- `my.login.type`
- Expects a `my_field` field to be sent to `/login`
- Is checked by the method: `self.check_my_login`
- `m.login.password` (defined in [the spec](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/latest#password-based))
- Expects a `password` field to be sent to `/login`
- Is checked by the method: `self.check_pass`
```python
from typing import Awaitable, Callable, Optional, Tuple
import synapse
from synapse import module_api
class MyAuthProvider:
def __init__(self, config: dict, api: module_api):
self.api = api
self.credentials = {
"bob": "building",
"@scoop:matrix.org": "digging",
}
api.register_password_auth_provider_callbacks(
auth_checkers={
("my.login_type", ("my_field",)): self.check_my_login,
("m.login.password", ("password",)): self.check_pass,
},
)
async def check_my_login(
self,
username: str,
login_type: str,
login_dict: "synapse.module_api.JsonDict",
) -> Optional[
Tuple[
str,
Optional[Callable[["synapse.module_api.LoginResponse"], Awaitable[None]]],
]
]:
if login_type != "my.login_type":
return None
if self.credentials.get(username) == login_dict.get("my_field"):
return self.api.get_qualified_user_id(username)
async def check_pass(
self,
username: str,
login_type: str,
login_dict: "synapse.module_api.JsonDict",
) -> Optional[
Tuple[
str,
Optional[Callable[["synapse.module_api.LoginResponse"], Awaitable[None]]],
]
]:
if login_type != "m.login.password":
return None
if self.credentials.get(username) == login_dict.get("password"):
return self.api.get_qualified_user_id(username)
```
