mod_http_admin_api: Ensure freshness of metrics when in manual mode When in manual collection mode, as recommended for Prometheus, collection needs to be triggered manually, or they would be stale, possibly dating from the start of the server. This might vary per metric depending on how and when the metrics are gathered.

summary: Server status plugin
...

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

This module fetches the current status of configured hosts and/or stanza
statistics from
[mod\_stanza\_counter](http://code.google.com/p/prosody-modules/wiki/mod_stanza_counter#).
And outputs it in either XML or JSON format.

Usage
=====

Copy the file into prosody's module directory and place it into your
global's enabled modules.

Configuration example:

    server_status_basepath = "/server-info/"
    server_status_show_hosts = { "iwanttoshowifthishostisonline.com", "iwanttoshowifthishostisonline2.com" }
    server_status_show_comps = { "muc.iwanttoshowifthishostisonline.com", "transport.iwanttoshowifthishostisonline.com" }
    server_status_json = true

By default the plugin's output is in XML, setting server\_status\_json
to "true" will turn it into JSON instead. if mod\_stanza\_counter isn't
loaded the plugin will require at least either
server\_status\_show\_hosts or server\_status\_show\_comps to be set.

Info
====

-   This is only compatible with 0.9 for older versions please look at
    the 0.8-diverge branch.
