mod_muc_rtbl: also filter messages This was a bit tricky because we don't want to run the JIDs through SHA256 on each message. Took a while to come up with this simple plan of just caching the SHA256 of the JIDs on the occupants. This will leave some dirt in the occupants after unloading the module, but that should be ok; once they cycle the room, the hashes will be gone. This is direly needed, otherwise, there is a tight race between the moderation activities and the actors joining the room.

summary: 'XEP-0136: Message Archiving frontend for mod\_mam'
...

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

Implementation of [XEP-0136: Message
Archiving](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0136.html) for
[mod\_mam](mod_mam.html).

Details
=======

See [mod\_mam] for details.

Usage
=====

First configure mod\_mam as specified in it's [wiki][mod\_mam]. Make
sure it uses sql2 storage backend.

Then add "mam\_archive" to your modules\_enabled list:

        modules_enabled = {
            -- ...
            "mam_archive",
            -- ...
        }

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

Because of the fact that [XEP-0136] defines a 'conversation' concept not
present in [XEP-0313], we have to assume some periods of chat history as
'conversations'.

Conversation interval defaults to one day, to provide for a convenient
usage.

    archive_conversation_interval = 86400; -- defined in seconds. One day by default

That is the only reason SQL database is required as well.
