Improve the joining rooms handshake documentation
There isn't a whole lot to this section that needed work. The section overall lost the table schema in favour of having the endpoints close by. The directory query is improved in https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/1443

<---------- join response
|

|
||||
The first part of the handshake usually involves using the directory server to
|
||||
request the room ID and join candidates. This is covered in more detail on the
|
||||
directory server documentation, below. In the case of a new user joining a
|
||||
room as a result of a received invite, the joining user's homeserver could
|
||||
optimise this step away by picking the origin server of that invite message as
|
||||
the join candidate. However, the joining server should be aware that the origin
|
||||
server of the invite might since have left the room, so should be prepared to
|
||||
fall back on the regular join flow if this optimisation fails.
|
||||
request the room ID and join candidates through the |/query/directory|_
|
||||
API endpoint. In the case of a new user joining a room as a result of a received
|
||||
invite, the joining user's homeserver could optimise this step away by picking
|
||||
the origin server of that invite message as the join candidate. However, the
|
||||
joining server should be aware that the origin server of the invite might since
|
||||
have left the room, so should be prepared to fall back on the regular join flow
|
||||
if this optimisation fails.
|
||||
|
||||
Once the joining server has the room ID and the join candidates, it then needs
|
||||
to obtain enough information about the room to fill in the required fields of
|
||||
the ``m.room.member`` event. It obtains this by selecting a resident from the
|
||||
candidate list, and requesting the ``make_join`` endpoint using a ``GET``
|
||||
request, specifying the room ID and the user ID of the new member who is
|
||||
attempting to join.
|
||||
candidate list, and using the ``GET /make_join`` endpoint. The resident server
|
||||
will then reply with enough information for the joining server to fill in the
|
||||
event.
|
||||
|
||||
The resident server replies to this request with a JSON-encoded object having a
|
||||
single key called ``event``; within this is an object whose fields contain some
|
||||
of the information that the joining server will need. Despite its name, this
|
||||
object is not a full event; notably it does not need to be hashed or signed by
|
||||
the resident homeserver. The required fields are:

||||

Key Type Description
|
||||
======================== ============ =========================================
|

``type`` String The value ``m.room.member``.
|
||||
``auth_events`` List An event-reference list containing the
|
||||
authorization events that would allow
|
||||
this member to join.
|
||||
``content`` Object The event content.
|
||||
``depth`` Integer (this field must be present but is
|
||||
ignored; it may be 0)
|
||||
``origin`` String The name of the resident homeserver.
|
||||
``origin_server_ts`` Integer A timestamp added by the resident
|
||||
homeserver.
|
||||
``prev_events`` List An event-reference list containing the
|
||||
immediate predecessor events.
|
||||
``room_id`` String The room ID of the room.
|
||||
``sender`` String The user ID of the joining member.
|
||||
``state_key`` String The user ID of the joining member.

======================== ============ =========================================
|
||||
|
||||
The joining server now has sufficient information to construct the real join
|
||||
event from these protoevent fields. It copies the values of most of them,
|
||||
adding (or replacing) the following fields:
|
||||
|
||||
======================== ============ =========================================
|
||||
Key Type Description
|
||||
======================== ============ =========================================
|
||||
``event_id`` String A new event ID specified by the joining
|
||||
homeserver.
|
||||
``origin`` String The name of the joining homeserver.
|
||||
``origin_server_ts`` Integer A timestamp added by the joining
|
||||
homeserver.
|
||||
======================== ============ =========================================
|
||||
|
||||
This will be a true event, so the joining server should apply the event-signing
|
||||
algorithm to it, resulting in the addition of the ``hashes`` and ``signatures``
|
||||
fields.
|
||||
The joining server is expected to add or replace the ``origin``, ``origin_server_ts``,
|
||||
and ``event_id`` on the templated event received by the resident server. This
|
||||
event is then signed by the joining server.
|
||||
|
||||
To complete the join handshake, the joining server must now submit this new
|
||||
event to an resident homeserver, by using the ``send_join`` endpoint. This is
|
||||
invoked using the room ID and the event ID of the new member event.

The resident homeserver then accepts this event into the room's event graph,
|
||||
and responds to the joining server with the full set of state for the
|
||||
newly-joined room. This is returned as a two-element list, whose first element
|
||||
is the integer 200, and whose second element is an object which contains the
|
||||
following keys:

participating in the room.
