The option makes it possible to offload all HTTP Upload processing
to a separate HTTP server. Both ejabberd and the HTTP server
should share this secret and behave exactly as described at
at https://modules.prosody.im/mod_http_upload_external.html
in the 'Implementation' section. Example configuration:
modules:
...
mod_http_upload:
...
put_url: "http://separate.http.server/upload"
external_secret: "foo bar baz"
...
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
Due to historical reasons, ejabberd loads the whole file/data
into the memory when serving an HTTP request. This is now improved:
1) For GET requests ejabberd uses sendfile(2) if the underlying
connection is HTTP and falls back to read/write loop with 64kb
buffer for HTTPS connections. This type of requests are handled
by mod_http_fileserver, mod_http_upload, ejabberd_captcha, etc
2) POST requests are now limited to 20Mb and are fully downloaded
into the memory for further processing (by ejabberd_web_admin,
mod_bosh, etc)
3) PUT requests (e.g. for mod_http_upload) are handled by read/write
loop with 64kb buffer
Accept all alphanumeric characters of any script in user and file names
rather than replacing non-ASCII characters with underscores. However,
non-alphanumeric characters are still replaced, except for "." and "-".
Closes#2346.
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.
Even if no suitable C graphics libraries are detected
at compile time, the package is still usable because it
provides `eimp:get_type/1` which is used by mod_avatar.
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"
...
```
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.
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}
