Setting the new mod_muc option tombstone_expiry to a positive integer
will make that any room destroyed gets replaced with a room tombstone.
That tombstone cannot be joined, so it blocks accessing the old room JID
until the expiry seconds have passed.
The default value is 0 seconds, so tombstones are not created.
Let up to 100 clients of a given account join MUC rooms by default. The
old default value can be too small, e.g., when users join many (private)
rooms with multiple devices.
The header consisted of too many unrelated stuff and macros misuse.
Some stuff is moved into scram.hrl and type_compat.hrl.
All macros have been replaced with the corresponding function calls.
TODO: probably type_compat.hrl is not even needed anymore since
we support only Erlang >= OTP 17.5
Now room owners are able to set a preferred language
for the discussions in the room, so other users can
discover rooms based on the language they wish to talk.
TODO: the language format should conform to RFC 5646.
This check should be implemented in 'xmpp' library.
Fixes#2436
Since we got rid of all bottle-neck processes and we have
a connection pool for every database, the option is no longer
needed and in fact is detrimental: in practice what you get
is just a bunch of overloaded processes in the IQ handlers pool
no matter how much you increase the `iqdisc` value.
Given that there are close to zero operators understanding
the meaning of the option and, hence, not using it all,
it's not simply deprecated but completely removed.
The commit also deprecates the following functions:
- gen_iq_handler:add_iq_handler/6
- gen_iq_handler:handle/5
- gen_iq_handler:iqdisc/1
The callback is supposed to provide known options and their default
values, as long as the documentation. Passing default values into
get_mod functions is now deprecated: all defaults should be provided
by the Mod:mod_options/1 callback.
The option allows to set arbitrary text for disco#info identity name.
Previously, option 'name' was supported by mod_proxy65 and mod_http_upload
only. Now, all the following modules support this option as well:
- mod_disco
- mod_irc
- mod_muc
- mod_multicast
- mod_pubsub
- mod_vcard
Example:
```
modules:
...
mod_disco:
name: "Cool XMPP Server"
...
```
Notice: The arguments expected have changed, instead of
muc_register_nick Tim tim@example.org muc.example.org
muc_unregister_nick Tim
it expects now:
muc_register_nick Tim tim@example.org example.org
muc_unregister_nick tim@example.org example.org
The option can be used as a replacement of 'host' option
when several (sub)domains are needed to be registered for the module.
Note that you cannot combine both 'host' and 'hosts' in the config
because 'host' option is of a higher priority. Example:
mod_pubsub:
...
hosts:
- "pubsub1.@HOST@"
- "pubsub2.@HOST@"
Fixes#1883
The changes are very similar to those from previous commit:
* Now there is no need to pass validating function in
gen_mod:get_opt() and gen_mod:get_module_opt() functions,
because the modules' configuration keeps already validated values.
* New functions gen_mod:get_opt/2 and gen_mod:get_module_opt/3 are
introduced.
* Functions gen_mod:get_opt/4 and get_module_opt/5 are deprecated.
If the functions are still called, the "function" argument is
simply ignored.
* Validating callback Mod:listen_opt_type/1 is introduced to validate
listening options at startup.
It's now possible to use files as internal packet queues.
The following options are introduced:
* queue_type: the option can be set to `ram` (default) or `file`.
The option can be set per virtual host.
* queue_dir: path to the directory where queues will be allocated.
The default is 'queue' directory inside Mnesia directory.
This is a global option and cannot be set per virtual host.
Now 'From' and 'To' arguments must be omitted in functions
and structures related to routing.
The commit deprecates the following functions:
ejabberd_router:route/3 in favor of ejabberd_router:route/1
ejabberd_router:route_error/4 in favor of ejabberd_router:route_error/2
ejabberd_local:route_iq/4 in favor of ejabberd_local:route_iq/2
ejabberd_local:route_iq/5 in favor of ejabberd_local:route_iq/3
The format of {route, From, To, Packet} is changed in favor of {route, Packet}
