mod_rest: Add more REST-looking way to send stanzas Example: POST /rest/message/chat/juliet@example.net { body: "Hello" } Becomes equivalent to POST /rest { kind: "message", type: "chat", to: "juliet@example.net", body: "Hello" } Sending messages as plain/text also becomes more convenient. IQ stazas are still weird, but we'll do something special for those.

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

This module largely duplicates the functionality of the standard
mod\_announce that is included with Prosody. It was developed for
compatibility with some clients (e.g. iChat) that do not support ad-hoc
commands or sending to JIDs with the format
'example.com/announce/online'.

It may also be useful in other specific cases.

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

    Component "broadcast@example.com" "broadcast"

By default, only server admins are allowed to post to this address. You
can override this, by specifying the 'broadcast\_senders' option:

    Component "broadcast@example.com" "broadcast"
        broadcast_senders = { "user1@example.com", "user2@example.com" }

Compatibility
