mod_http_oauth2: Fix use of arbitrary ports in loopback redirect URIs Per draft-ietf-oauth-v2-1-08#section-8.4.2 > The authorization server MUST allow any port to be specified at the > time of the request for loopback IP redirect URIs, to accommodate > clients that obtain an available ephemeral port from the operating > system at the time of the request. Uncertain if it should normalize the host part, but it also seems harmless to treat IPv6 and IPv4 the same here. One thing is that "localhost" is NOT RECOMMENDED because it can sometimes be pointed to non-loopback interfaces via DNS or hosts file.

summary: JSON Encodings for XMPP
...

Introduction
============

This plugin encodes XMPP as JSON. This is an implementation of
[XEP-0295: JSON Encodings for
XMPP](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0295.html).

Simply loading this module makes Prosody accept JSON on C2S streams
(legacy XML clients are still supported).

For BOSH, it requires mod\_bosh be loaded, and JSON should be directed
at the `/jsonstreams` HTTP path.

JSON for S2S isn't supported due to the lack of a discovery mechanism,
so we have left that disabled to stay compatible with legacy XML
servers.

Configuration
=============

Just add `"json_streams"` in your config's global `modules_enabled`
list, for example:

    modules_enabled = {
        ...
        "json_streams";
    }

Strophe.js plugin
=================

We also developed a [JSON streams
plugin](http://prosody-modules.googlecode.com/hg/mod_json_streams/strophe.jsonstreams.js)
for the popular [strophe.js](http://code.stanziq.com/strophe) library.

Just include it like this after including the strophe library, and your
strophe-based client will be speaking JSON:

    <script type="text/javascript" src="strophe.jsonstreams.js"></script>

Be sure to set the HTTP path to `/jsonstreams`. No other changes are
required.

Compatibility
=============

  ------- -------
  0.8     Works

Quirks
======

-   This plugin does not currently work with Prosody's [port
    multiplexing](http://prosody.im/doc/port_multiplexing) feature
