mod_http_oauth2: Rescope oauth client config into users' storage
This produces client_id of the form owner@host/random and prevents
clients from being deleted by registering an account with the same name
and then deleting the account, as well as having the client
automatically be deleted when the owner account is removed.
On one hand, this leaks the bare JID of the creator to users. On the
other hand, it makes it obvious who made the oauth application.
This module is experimental and only for developers, so this can be
changed if a better method comes up.

--- labels: - 'Type-Auth' summary: OAuth authentication ... Introduction ============ This is an authentication module for the SASL OAUTHBEARER mechanism, as provided by `mod_sasl_oauthbearer`. You can use this to log in via OAuth, for example if you want your user's to log in with Github, Twitter, Reddit etc. The XMPP client needs get an OAuth token from the provider (e.g. Github) and send that to Prosody. This module will then verify that token by calling the `oauth_url` you've configured. Configuration ============= Per VirtualHost, you'll need to supply your OAuth client Id, secret and the URL which Prosody must call in order to verify the OAuth token it receives from the XMPP client. For example, for Github: oauth_client_id = "13f8e9cc8928b3409822" oauth_client_secret = "983161fd3ah608ea7ef35382668aad1927463978" oauth_url = "https://api.github.com/applications/{{oauth_client_id}}/tokens/{{password}}"; authentication = "oauthbearer"
