mod_pubsub_post: Restructure authentication and authorization (BC) This deprecates the default "superuser" actor model and makes the default equivalent to the previous "request.id". A single actor and secret per node is supported because HTTP and WebHooks don't normally include any authorization identity. Allowing authentication bypass when no secret is given should be relatively safe when the actor is unprivileged, as will be unless explicitly configured otherwise.

summary: MongoDB Storage Module
...

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

This is a storage backend that uses MongoDB. Depends on [luamongo
bindings](https://github.com/mwild1/luamongo)

This module is not under active development and has a number of issues
related to limitations in MongoDB. It is not suitable for production
use.

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

Copy the module to the prosody modules/plugins directory.

In Prosody's configuration file, set:

    storage = "mongodb"

MongoDB options are:

  Name         Description
  ------------ -------------------------------------------------------------------
  server       hostname:port
  username     your username for the given database
  password     your password for the given database (either raw or pre-digested)
  is\_digest   whether the password field has been pre-digested

Compatibility
=============

  ------- ---------------------------
  trunk   Untested, but should work
