mod_csi_muc_priorities: Reduce importance of group chat messages This helps if you are in more noisy public channels than small private group chats. The short term plan is to give users the ability to set MUC JIDs as either high or low priority and use that. Long term it would be great to be able to automatically classify MUCs as public channels vs private group chats.

summary: Implementation of the Prometheus protocol
...

Description
===========

This module implements the Prometheus reporting protocol, allowing you
to collect statistics directly from Prosody into Prometheus.

See the [Prometheus documentation][prometheusconf] on the format for
more information.

[prometheusconf]: https://prometheus.io/docs/instrumenting/exposition_formats/

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

mod\_prometheus itself doesn’t have any configuration option, but it
requires Prosody’s [internal statistics
provider](https://prosody.im/doc/statistics#built-in_providers) to be
enabled.  You may also want to change the default collection interval
to the one your statistics consumer is using.

```lua
statistics = "internal"
statistics_interval = 15 -- in seconds
```

See also the documentation of Prosody’s [HTTP
server](https://prosody.im/doc/http), since Prometheus is an HTTP
protocol that is how you can customise its URL.  The default one being
http://localhost:5280/metrics
