mod_http_oauth2: Revert role selector, going to try something else Back out f2c7bb3af600 Allowing only a single role to be encoded into the grant takes away the possibility of having multiple roles in the grant, one of which is selected when issuing an access token. It also takes away the ability to have zero roles granted, which could be useful e.g. when you only need OIDC scopes.

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

This is an experimental authentication module that does an asynchronous
HTTP call to verify username and password.

Details
=======

When a user attempts to authenticate to Prosody, this module takes the
username and password and does a HTTP GET request with [Basic
authentication][rfc7617] to the configured `http_auth_url`.

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

``` lua
VirtualHost "example.com"
authentication = "http_async"
http_auth_url = "http://example.com/auth"
```

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

Requires Prosody trunk
