mod_http_oauth2: Reject non-local hosts in more code paths
We're not issuing tokens for users on remote hosts, we can't even
authenticate them since they're remote. Thus the host is always the
local module.host so no need to pass around the host in most cases or
use it for anything but enforcing the same host.

Introduction ============ This module allows to load/unload external components after they have been added/removed to a configuration file. It is necessary to explicitly initiate a reload on Prosody either via prosodyctl reload or config:reload(). Example 1: -------- If Prosody has started with this configuration file: ``` {.lua} VirtualHost "example.com" authentication = "internal_plain" Component "a.example.com" component_secret = "a" Component "b.example.com" component_secret = "b" ``` And the file has changed manually or dynamically to: ``` {.lua} VirtualHost "example.com" authentication = "internal_plain" Component "a.example.com" component_secret = "a" Component "c.example.com" component_secret = "c" ``` Then, the following actions will occur if this module is loaded: 1. The component c.example.com will be loaded and start bouncing for authentication. 2. The component b.example.com will be unloaded and deactivated. The connection with it will not be closed, but no further actions will be executed on Prosody. Example 2: -------- If Prosody has started with this configuration file: ``` {.lua} VirtualHost "example.com" authentication = "internal_plain" Component "a.example.com" component_secret = "a" ``` And the file has changed manually or dynamically to: ``` {.lua} VirtualHost "example.com" authentication = "internal_plain" Component "a.example.com" component_secret = "a" VirtualHost "newexample.com" authentication = "internal_plain" Component "a.newexample.com" component_secret = "a" ``` Then, the following actions will occur if this module is loaded: 1. The component a.newexample.com will be loaded and start bouncing for authentication. Note that its respective VirtualHost is not loaded. Bad things may happen. Usage ===== Copy the module folder into your Prosody modules directory. Place the module between your enabled modules either into the global or a vhost section. No configuration directives are needed Info ==== - 0.9, works
