<p>The code of Synapse is written in Python 3. To do pretty much anything, you'll need <a href="https://www.python.org/downloads/">a recent version of Python 3</a>. Your Python also needs support for <a href="https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html">virtual environments</a>. This is usually built-in, but some Linux distributions like Debian and Ubuntu split it out into its own package. Running <code>sudo apt install python3-venv</code> should be enough.</p>
<p>Synapse can connect to PostgreSQL via the <a href="https://pypi.org/project/psycopg2/">psycopg2</a> Python library. Building this library from source requires access to PostgreSQL's C header files. On Debian or Ubuntu Linux, these can be installed with <code>sudo apt install libpq-dev</code>.</p>
<p>Synapse has an optional, improved user search with better Unicode support. For that you need the development package of <code>libicu</code>. On Debian or Ubuntu Linux, this can be installed with <code>sudo apt install libicu-dev</code>.</p>
<p>The source code of Synapse is hosted on GitHub. You will also need <a href="https://github.com/git-guides/install-git">a recent version of git</a>.</p>
<p>For some tests, you will need <a href="https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/">a recent version of Docker</a>.</p>

<h3 id="mastodon"><a class="header" href="#mastodon">Mastodon</a></h3>
<p><a href="https://docs.joinmastodon.org/">Mastodon</a> instances provide an <a href="https://docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/oauth/">OAuth API</a>, allowing those instances to be used as a single sign-on provider for Synapse.</p>
<p>The first step is to register Synapse as an application with your Mastodon instance, using the <a href="https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/apps/#create">Create an application API</a> (see also <a href="https://docs.joinmastodon.org/client/token/">here</a>). There are several ways to do this, but in the example below we are using CURL.</p>
<p>This example assumes that:</p>
<ul>
<li>the Mastodon instance website URL is <code>https://your.mastodon.instance.url</code>, and</li>
<li>Synapse will be registered as an app named <code>my_synapse_app</code>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Send the following request, substituting the value of <code>synapse_public_baseurl</code> from your Synapse installation.</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">curl -d &quot;client_name=my_synapse_app&amp;redirect_uris=https://[synapse_public_baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback&quot; -X POST https://your.mastodon.instance.url/api/v1/apps
</code></pre>
<p>You should receive a response similar to the following. Make sure to save it.</p>
<pre><code class="language-json">{&quot;client_id&quot;:&quot;someclientid_123&quot;,&quot;client_secret&quot;:&quot;someclientsecret_123&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;12345&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;my_synapse_app&quot;,&quot;redirect_uri&quot;:&quot;https://[synapse_public_baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback&quot;,&quot;website&quot;:null,&quot;vapid_key&quot;:&quot;somerandomvapidkey_123&quot;}
</code></pre>
<p>As the Synapse login mechanism needs an attribute to uniquely identify users, and Mastodon's endpoint does not return a <code>sub</code> property, an alternative <code>subject_claim</code> has to be set. Your Synapse configuration should include the following:</p>
<pre><code class="language-yaml">oidc_providers:
- idp_id: my_mastodon
idp_name: &quot;Mastodon Instance Example&quot;
discover: false
issuer: &quot;https://your.mastodon.instance.url/@admin&quot;

<p><a href="https://docs.joinmastodon.org/">Mastodon</a> instances provide an <a href="https://docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/oauth/">OAuth API</a>, allowing those instances to be used as a single sign-on provider for Synapse.</p>
<p>The first step is to register Synapse as an application with your Mastodon instance, using the <a href="https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/apps/#create">Create an application API</a> (see also <a href="https://docs.joinmastodon.org/client/token/">here</a>). There are several ways to do this, but in the example below we are using CURL.</p>
<p>This example assumes that:</p>
<ul>
<li>the Mastodon instance website URL is <code>https://your.mastodon.instance.url</code>, and</li>
<li>Synapse will be registered as an app named <code>my_synapse_app</code>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Send the following request, substituting the value of <code>synapse_public_baseurl</code> from your Synapse installation.</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">curl -d &quot;client_name=my_synapse_app&amp;redirect_uris=https://[synapse_public_baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback&quot; -X POST https://your.mastodon.instance.url/api/v1/apps
</code></pre>
<p>You should receive a response similar to the following. Make sure to save it.</p>
<pre><code class="language-json">{&quot;client_id&quot;:&quot;someclientid_123&quot;,&quot;client_secret&quot;:&quot;someclientsecret_123&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;12345&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;my_synapse_app&quot;,&quot;redirect_uri&quot;:&quot;https://[synapse_public_baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback&quot;,&quot;website&quot;:null,&quot;vapid_key&quot;:&quot;somerandomvapidkey_123&quot;}
</code></pre>
<p>As the Synapse login mechanism needs an attribute to uniquely identify users, and Mastodon's endpoint does not return a <code>sub</code> property, an alternative <code>subject_claim</code> has to be set. Your Synapse configuration should include the following:</p>
<pre><code class="language-yaml">oidc_providers:
