Support systemd's watchdog feature and enable it by default in the unit
file, so that ejabberd is auto-restarted if the VM becomes unresponsive.
Also, set the systemd startup type to 'notify', so that startup of
followup units is delayed until ejabberd signals readiness. While at
it, also notify systemd of configuration reload and shutdown states.
Note: "NotifyAccess=all" is required as long as "ejabberdctl foreground"
runs the VM as a new child process, rather than "exec"ing it. This way,
systemd views the ejabberdctl process itself as the main service
process, and would discard notifications from other processes by
default.
Several documentation callbacks (doc/0 and mod_doc/0) are implemented
and `ejabberdctl man` command is added to generate a man page. Note
that the command requires a2x to be installed (which is a part of
asciidoc package).
This change requires Erlang/OTP-21.0 or higher.
The commit also deprecates the following options:
- log_rotate_date
- log_rate_limit
Furthermore, these options have no effect. The logger now fully
relies on log_rotate_size, that cannot be 0 anymore.
The loglevel option now accepts levels in literal formats.
Those are: none, emergency, alert, critical, error, warning, notice, info, debug.
Old integer values (0-5) are still supported and automatically converted
into literal format.
Such warnings may be unappropriate in some situation, e.g.
when a virtual host is disabled in runtime but some packets
for this host are still in transit.
Fixes#3037
Since we now require R19, we shouldn't need that anymore.
There are still couple places where p1_time_compat:unique_timestamp() is
used as there is no direct equivalent.
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
Since now, ejabberd doesn't ignore unknown options and doesn't
allow to have options with malformed values. The rationale for
this is to avoid unexpected behaviour during runtime, i.e. to
conform to "fail early" approach. Note that it's safe to reload
a configuration with potentialy invalid and/or unknown options:
this will not halt ejabberd, but will only prevent the configuration
from loading.
***NOTE FOR PACKAGE BUILDERS***
This new behaviour should be documented in the upgrade notes.
