mod_muc_moderation: Derive role from reserved nickname if occupant
When using a different client to moderate than the one used to
participate in the chat, e.g. a command line tool like clix, there's no
occupant and no role to use in the permission check. Previously the
default role based on affiliation was used. Now if you are present in
the room using your reserved nick, the role you have there is used in
the permission check instead of the default affiliation-derived role.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Beta' - 'Type-Auth' summary: | Authentication module for 'HA1' hashed credentials in a text file, as used by reTurnServer ... Introduction ============ This module authenticates users against hashed credentials stored in a plain text file. The format is the same as that used by reTurnServer. Configuration ============= Name Default Description ----------------- ---------- --------------------------------- auth\_ha1\_file auth.txt Path to the authentication file Prosody reads the auth file at startup and on reload (e.g. SIGHUP). File Format =========== The file format is text, with one user per line. Each line is broken into four fields separated by colons (':'): username:ha1:host:status Field Description ---------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- username The user's login name ha1 An MD5 hash of "username:host:password" host The XMPP hostname status The status of the account. Prosody expects this to be just the text "authorized" More info can be found [here](https://github.com/resiprocate/resiprocate/blob/master/reTurn/users.txt). Example ------- john:2a236a1a68765361c64da3b502d4e71c:example.com:authorized mary:4ed7cf9cbe81e02dbfb814de6f84edf1:example.com:authorized charlie:83002e42eb4515ec0070489339f2114c:example.org:authorized Constructing the hashes can be done manually using any MD5 utility, such as md5sum. For example the user 'john' has the password 'hunter2', and his hash can be calculated like this: echo -n "john:example.com:hunter2" | md5sum - Compatibility ============= ------ ------- 0.9 Works 0.10 Works ------ -------
