mod_invites_page: Remove preauth URI button This button is incompatible with the majority of XMPP clients around, yet based on feedback from users, many are drawn to click it when they have any XMPP client installed already. In the case where the user already has software installed, we would prefer them to select it from the software list so they can follow the setup process suited to their specific client (we already track which software supports preauth URIs). If their client is not listed, they can still use the manual registration link instead.

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
