mod_http_muc_log: Fix exception on lack of trailing slash in room path A request to /room leads to the match call returning nil which in turn calls nodeprep(nil). In Prosody 0.11.x this does nothing and simply returns the nil, while in 0.12 it is an error. Now it redirects to the calendar view at /room/ - even for non-existant rooms. Discovered at a deployment with http_paths = { muc_log = "/" } and requests to /robots.txt and similar, which now result in a uses redirect before returning 404.

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.
