Question ?

• Tom Database

[sherlockvn]

• How FluffyChat support multiple accounts? -> FluffyChat supports multiple accounts by allowing multiple clients, and allowing users to add, remove, and switch between client
• How database is used ? -> We use some data in current database after switch between clients -> we need to find a way to store contact based on current log in account to current Hive database , example: ContactManager. But we also have to call the _registerSub method in Matrix class, to reassign the baseUrl of homeserver and tom server
• How authentication flow? -> The authentication flow is the same with the homeserver screen
• FluffyChat support 2 accounts in maxtrix.org work in parallel? -> Yes. and as many as you want

Problem need to discuss:

• in iOS, when user has logged in with OIDC flow, if user want to add another accounts with the same server, user are currently being automatically logged in with old account -> My solution is keep all log in/ log out to ephemeral state (no need session data) to simplify the process

Tickets:

• Add, remove a new account to the Twake Chat
• Handle notifications for multiple accounts (fluffyChat have received notifications from multiple accounts, but have not handle it properly)
• Change accounts with same servers in chat ? (fluffy have done it but UI is not look goods, need to consider)

• [ ] Enable case 1:

  • and add a matrix.org account

Desc:

• Add account flow

  • flow existed: go to homeserver picker -> login with matrix account
  • Account switch: UI
  • Settings for one account, settings for all app
  • set active account -> need to setup tom-service too

• HiveCollectionToMDatabase

  • migrating -> clear all old version (check in open app)
  • tomConfigurationsBox: clientName - configuration need to change to userId - configuration

• Logout account

    await tryLogoutSso(context);
    final hiveCollectionToMDatabase = getIt.get<HiveCollectionToMDatabase>();
    await hiveCollectionToMDatabase.clear();

  • HiveCollectionToM db????

  • web: no contact tab in case of not Twake (tom server not found)
  • mobile:
  • no lookup api in case of not Twake (tom server not found)
  • still request phone book
