The developer setting that overrode the LiveKit service URL becomes a
JSON transport, so that a `url`-only or combined transport can be tested
against a homeserver that does not advertise one yet. The settings modal
shows each LiveKit room's role instead of a never-populated isLocal flag.
A transport with only a LiveKit SFU `url` has to be authenticated through
our own homeserver, which needs to know the name of the server owning the
SFU. Carry that name alongside the transport as a TransportLocator,
derived from the member's user ID for remote transports and from the
client's domain for our own, and key the connection map on the SFU URL,
the service URL and the server name together so that `url`, service URL
and combined transport shapes are deduplicated consistently.
getLocalTransport no longer authenticates with the SFU up front and hands
the resulting config to the connection. Instead the ConnectionManager tags
the connection whose transport equals the local one as the publisher, and
every Connection fetches its own SFU config for its role.
The local member now only joins the MatrixRTC session once its connection
is authenticated, so that the LiveKit room exists before remote members
try to get a subscriber token for it. Subscribers authenticating with the
OpenID flow lack permission to create the room and would otherwise fail
without retrying, causing a cascade of leaves and rejoins at the start of
a call.
The OpenID flow moves to src/livekit/auth/openID.ts with the SFU config
types in a sibling file, takes an options object, and replaces the
MatrixRTC mode with the role we take on the transport plus the session's
slot ID instead of a hard-coded m.call#ROOM.
This changes behaviour: publishers on a livekit_service_url transport
always use the legacy /sfu/get endpoint, so that subscribers can predict
their user:device participant identity, and subscribers always use the
default /get_token endpoint. The MatrixRTC mode no longer influences which
endpoint is used.
As of the removal of 'Legacy' mode, there can no longer be a difference between the transport you advertise in your membership and the transport you publish media on, so the local transport code can be simplified considerably. For instance, the function which gets the local transport can simply return a promise rather than being reactive.
I kept the local transport as an Observable in other modules so that they could easily be tested with existing marble tests.
IMO this is where the delegation calls should have lived all along, since the leave event is part of the membership lifecycle, and we otherwise end up with an awkward hack to ignore transport updates.
Doing this now ensures that the client won't send any delegation requests if delegation is unsupported, and prepares the code for a future change in which we use the dedicated delegation endpoint from the CS API.
Since we removed the extra 'legacy' mode, meaning there's nothing simplified anymore by translating things over to a JWT service version.
(Also, simplify some things by making the mode static for the duration of a call.)
This is the mode in which we sent membership events with the 'oldest membership' transport selection algorithm, which stopped being the default back in version 0.21.0. Users will no longer be able to select this mode in developer settings, and admins will no longer be able to select legacy mode through the config either. The app will still continue to support *receiving* membership events with the 'oldest membership' transport selection algorithm from others, however.
- use the new domain logic to discover the transport
- then try to authenticate

The local jwt token needs to be aquired via the right endpoint. The
endpoint defines how our rtcBackendIdentity is computed. Based on us
using sticky events or state events we also need to use the right
endpoint. This cannot be done generically in the connection manager. The
jwt token now is computed in the localTransport and the resolved sfu
config is passed to the connection manager.
Add JWT endpoint version and SFU config support Pin matrix-js-sdk to a
specific commit and update dev auth image tag. Propagate SFU config and
JWT endpoint choice through local transport, ConnectionManager and
Connection; add JwtEndpointVersion enum and LocalTransportWithSFUConfig
type. Add NO_MATRIX_2 auth error and locale string, thread
rtcBackendIdentity through UI props, and include related test, CSS and
minor imports updates
