Expand description

A request type for a Matrix API endpoint, used for sending requests.

Required Associated Types

A type capturing the expected error conditions the server can return.

Response type returned when the request is successful.

Required Associated Constants

Metadata about the endpoint.

Required Methods

Tries to convert this request into an http::Request.

On endpoints with authentication, when adequate information isn’t provided through access_token, this could result in an error. It may also fail with a serialization error in case of bugs in Ruma though.

It may also fail if, for every version in considering_versions;

  • The endpoint is too old, and has been removed in all versions. (EndpointRemoved)
  • The endpoint is too new, and no unstable path is known for this endpoint. (NoUnstablePath)

Finally, this will emit a warning through tracing if it detects if any version in considering_versions has deprecated this endpoint.

The endpoints path will be appended to the given base_url, for example https://matrix.org. Since all paths begin with a slash, it is not necessary for the base_url to have a trailing slash. If it has one however, it will be ignored.
