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.
The option can be used to specify a period (in seconds) for a stream
negotiation to complete. If the timer fires, the stream is considered
as failed and the underlying connection gets closed. This is a global
option (you cannot set it per domain) and the default is 30 seconds.
If set to `true`, all incoming XML packets are fully validated
against known schemas. If an error occurs, the packet will be bounced
with the corresponding error reason. The default value is `false`.
The option might be useful to protect client software from sofisticated
bugs related to XML validation as well as for client developers
who want to catch validation errors at early stage of development.
Note that the option might have slight performance impact, so use it
with care on loaded machines.
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.
in ejabberdctl, just add this to EJABBERD_OPTS
external_beams /path/to/my/beams
then all beams file /path/to/my/beams/*.beam will be known
by ejabberd_config, and allowed to be loaded.
The option is supposed to replace existing options 'c2s_certfile',
's2s_certfile' and 'domain_certfile'. The option accepts a list
of file paths (optionally with wildcards "*") containing either
PEM certificates or PEM private keys. At startup, ejabberd sorts
the certificates, finds matching private keys and rebuilds full
certificates chains which can be used by fast_tls. Example:
certfiles:
- "/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.org/*.pem"
- "/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/*.pem"
The commit introduces the following changes:
* Now there is no need to pass validating function in
ejabberd_config:get_option() functions, because the configuration
keeps already validated values.
* New function ejabberd_config:get_option/1 is introduced
* Function ejabberd_config:get_option/3 is deprecated. If the function
is still called, the second argument (validating function) is simply
ignored.
* The second argument for ejabberd_config:get_option/2 is now
a default value, not a validating function.
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.
