mod_rest: Use logger of HTTP request in trunk In Prosody trunk rev c975dafa4303 each HTTP request gained its own log sink, to make it easy to log things related to each request and group those messages. Especially where async is used, spreading the request and response apart as mod_rest does with iq stanzas, this grouped logging should help find related messages.

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

Prosody already gives some insight into current s2s connections, e.g. via
the `s2s:show()` command in the console. This will tell you about all current
s2s connections.

However sometimes this is not enough. For example if an s2s connection fails
to establish, it won't show up - you have to go digging through the log file
looking for the errors instead.

This module maintains a record of recent connection attempts to a remote
domain. You can use this module to answer questions such as:

- Why did the last connection attempt to `example.com` fail?
- When did I last have a successful connection with `example.com`?
- Are my s2s connections generally stable?

**Note:** At the time of writing, this module is not yet finished, and should
be considered a proof-of-concept.

# Configuration

Just load the module as normal:

``` {.lua}
modules_enabled = {
  ...
  "s2s_status";
  ...
}
```

# Compatibility

trunk (0.12) and later, e.g. due to [60676b607b6d](https://hg.prosody.im/trunk/rev/60676b607b6d).
