Add a config flag to enable the rust crypto-sdk #9759

richvdh · 2022-12-14T12:11:16Z

This PR adds an option to config.json which will make the js-sdk use the rust crypto sdk, instead of the libolm implementation.

To use it, you need to add something like this to config.json:

    "features": {
        "feature_rust_crypto": true
    },

We don't (yet) have any way to migrate a device between implementations, so the setting that was in use when you log in is persisted to the device; it is visible via the labs section but cannot currently be changed:

This is part of element-hq/element-web#21972, and enables the functionality added to the js-sdk in matrix-org/matrix-js-sdk#2969.

Here's what your changelog entry will look like:

I'm hoping for an exemption on the strict type checks. The failures are not on lines I have changed.

florianduros · 2022-12-16T11:33:24Z

@richvdh If your merge develop in your branch, the failures will disappear.

t3chguy · 2022-12-16T11:33:52Z

@richvdh the failing CI is non-required. Please see pinned message in Element Web Internal from @andybalaam

Empirically not!

dear github mobile, if I hit "send" 4 hours ago, that doesn't mean hold the comment as a pending review until I happen to notice.

Apologies for the late review - it's only a minor point.

Follow-up to #9759. Because the MatrixClientPeg pushes the use_rust_crypto setting back into the SettingsStore, the setting was leaking out to other tests despite getValue's mock being restored. The solution is to mock out setValue as well.
