This worker can handle API requests matching the following regular expressions.
These endpoints can be routed to any worker. If a worker is set up to handle a
stream then, for maximum efficiency, additional endpoints should be routed to that
worker: refer to the [stream writers](#stream-writers) section below for further
information.

streams (such as events) off of the main process to a particular worker. (This
is only supported with Redis-based replication.)
Currently supported streams are `events` and `typing`.
To enable this, the worker must have a HTTP replication listener configured,
have a `worker_name` and be listed in the `instance_map` config. For example to
move event persistence off to a dedicated worker, the shared configuration would

streams and the endpoints associated with them:

The `events` stream also experimentally supports having multiple writers, where
work is sharded between them by room ID. Note that you *must* restart all worker
