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.

summary: Ad-hoc commands for managing MUC hats
---

# Introduction

This module provides an internal API (i.e. to other modules) to manage
'hats' for users in MUC rooms.

Hats (first defined in [XEP-0317], currently deferred) are additional identifiers
that can be attached to users in a group chat. For example in an educational
context, you may have a 'Teacher' hat that allows students to identify their
teachers.

Hats consist of a machine-readable unique identifier (a URI), and optionally
a human-readable label.

This module provides ad-hoc commands for MUC service admins to add/remove hats
to/from users in MUC rooms. It depends (automatically) on mod_muc_hats_api.

## Configuration

```
Component "conference.example.com" "muc"
  modules_enabled = { "muc_hats_adhoc" }
```

## Usage

To successfully use the module you will need to use an XMPP client that is
capable of sending commands to a specific host (e.g. via the service discovery
browser in Gajim, Psi/Psi+ and other clients), and you'll find the commands
on the MUC host.

Also note that the display of hats in clients is currently non-existent, but
will hopefully improve after [XEP-0317] is resurrected or replaced.
