mod_http_admin_api: restructure group-related info in API
- Return the members of the group right in the get_group_by_id
call. This is an O(1) of extra work.
- Remove the groups attribute from get_user_by_name as that is
O(n) of work and rarely immediately needed.
The replacement for the group membership information in the user
is for now to use the group API and iterate; future work may fix
that.

Introduction ============ On a server with public registration it is usually desirable to prevent registration of certain "reserved" accounts, such as "admin". This plugin allows you to reserve individual usernames, or those matching certain patterns. It also allows you to ensure that usernames conform to a certain pattern. Configuration ============= Enable the module as any other: modules_enabled = { "block_registrations"; } You can then set some options to configure your desired policy: Option Default Description -------------------------------- --------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- block\_registrations\_users `{ "admin" }` A list of reserved usernames block\_registrations\_matching `{ }` A list of [Lua patterns](http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#5.4.1) matching reserved usernames (slower than block\_registrations\_users) block\_registrations\_require `nil` A pattern that registered user accounts MUST match to be allowed Some examples: block_registrations_users = { "admin", "root", "xmpp" } block_registrations_matching = { "master$" -- matches anything ending with master: postmaster, hostmaster, webmaster, etc. } block_registrations_require = "^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+$" -- Allow only simple ASCII characters in usernames Compatibility ============= ----- ------------- 0.9 Works 0.8 Should work ----- -------------
