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 writes out a traceback to a file when a chosen signal (by default
`SIGUSR1`) is received. It can be useful to diagnose cases where Prosody is
unresponsive.

# Configuration

`debug_traceback_filename`
:   The name of the file to write the traceback to. Some variables
    are supported, see [mod_log_ringbuffer] docs for more info. Defaults
    to `{paths.data}/traceback-{pid}-{count}.log`.

`debug_traceback_signal`
:   The name of the signal to listen for. Defaults to `SIGUSR1`.

# Compatibility

Prosody 0.11 or later.
