4 summary: Adds support for flash socket policy | |
5 ... | |
6 | |
7 Introduction | |
8 ============ | |
9 | |
10 This Prosody plugin adds support for flash socket policies. When | |
11 connecting with a flash client (from a webpage, not an exe) to prosody | |
12 the flash client requests for an xml "file" on port 584 or the | |
13 connecting port (5222 in the case of default xmpp). Responding on port | |
14 584 is tricky because it requires root priviliges to set up a socket on | |
15 a port \< 1024. | |
16 | |
17 This plugins filters the incomming data from the flash client. So when | |
18 the client connects with prosody it immediately sends a xml request | |
19 string (`<policy-file-request/>\0`). Prosody responds with a flash | |
20 cross-domain-policy. See | |
21 http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/socket\_policy\_files.html | |
22 for more information. | |
23 | |
24 Usage | |
25 ===== | |
26 | |
27 Add "flash\_policy" to your modules\_enabled list. | |
28 | |
29 Configuration | |
30 ============= | |
31 | |
32 --------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
33 crossdomain\_file Optional. The path to a file containing an cross-domain-policy in xml format. | |
34 crossdomain\_string Optional. A cross-domain-policy as string. Should include the xml declaration. | |
35 --------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
36 | |
37 Both configuration options are optional. If both are not specified a | |
38 cross-domain-policy with "`<allow-access-from domain="*" />`" is used as | |
39 default. | |

48 Caveats/Todos/Bugs | |
49 ================== | |
50 | |
51 - The assumption is made that the first packet received will always | |
52 contain the policy request data, and all of it. This isn't robust | |
53 against fragmentation, but on the other hand I highly doubt you'll | |
54 be seeing that with such a small packet. | |
55 - Only tested by me on a single server :) |
