matrix-sydent

Matrix reference identity server

Description

Sydent is a reference implementation of the Matrix Identity Server API in Python, supporting:

  - Validation of 3PIDs (email and MSISDNs) for signup and discovery
  - Binding of 3PIDs to MXIDs (for discovery)
  - Lookup of 3PIDs to MXIDs
  - Storing unresolved 3PID invites.
  - Replication of assertions across a closed federation.

Instances currently run at matrix.org and vector.im; meanwhile others are free to run their own but they will not be able to participate in the global directory lookup table.

N.B. use of the Identity Server API is stricly optional in Matrix - it's only used to resolve 3PIDs to MXIDs.

Matrix is an open standard for interoperable, decentralised, real-time communication over IP. It can be used to power Instant Messaging, VoIP/WebRTC signalling, Internet of Things communication or anywhere where's a need for a standard HTTP API for publishing and subscribing to data whilst tracking the conversation history.

In Matrix, every user runs one or more Matrix clients, which connect through to a Matrix homeserver. The homeserver stores all their personal chat history and user account information, much as a mail client connects through to an IMAP/SMTP server.
