Global Discovery
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
Announcements
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
A device should announce itself at startup. It does this by an HTTPS POST to
|
|
the announce server URL (with the path usually being "/", but this is of
|
|
course up to the discovery server). The POST has a JSON payload listing direct
|
|
connection addresses (if any) and relay addresses (if any).
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
direct: ["tcp://192.0.2.45:22000", "tcp://:22202"],
|
|
relays: [{"url": "relay://192.0.2.99:22028", "latency": 142}]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
It's OK for either of the "direct" or "relays" fields to be either the empty
|
|
list ([]), null, or missing entirely. An announcement with both fields missing
|
|
or empty is however not useful...
|
|
|
|
Any empty or unspecified IP addresses (i.e. addresses like tcp://:22000,
|
|
tcp://0.0.0.0:22000, tcp://[::]:22000) are interpreted as referring to the
|
|
source IP address of the announcement.
|
|
|
|
The device ID of the announcing device is not part of the announcement.
|
|
Instead, the server requires that the client perform certificate
|
|
authentication. The device ID is deduced from the presented certificate.
|
|
|
|
The server response is empty, with code 200 (OK) on success. If no certificate
|
|
was presented, status 403 (Forbidden) is returned. If the posted data doesn't
|
|
conform to the expected format, 400 (Bad Request) is returned.
|
|
|
|
In successful responses, the server may return a "Reannounce-After" header
|
|
containing the number of seconds after which the client should perform a new
|
|
announcement.
|
|
|
|
In error responses, the server may return a "Retry-After" header containing
|
|
the number of seconds after which the client should retry.
|
|
|
|
Performing announcements significantly more often than indicated by the
|
|
Reannounce-After or Retry-After headers may result in the client being
|
|
throttled. In such cases the server may respond with status code 429 (Too Many
|
|
Requests).
|
|
|
|
Queries
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Queries are performed as HTTPS GET requests to the announce server URL. The
|
|
requested device ID is passed as the query parameter "device", in canonical
|
|
string form, i.e. https://announce.syncthing.net/?device=ABC12345-....
|
|
|
|
Successful responses will have status code 200 (OK) and carry a JSON payload
|
|
of the same format as the announcement above. The response will not contain
|
|
empty or unspecified addresses.
|
|
|
|
If the "device" query parameter is missing or malformed, the status code 400
|
|
(Bad Request) is returned.
|
|
|
|
If the device ID is of a valid format but not found in the registry, 404 (Not
|
|
Found) is returned.
|
|
|
|
If the client has exceeded a rate limit, the server may respond with 429 (Too
|
|
Many Requests).
