mod_ping_muc: Delay ping a configurable amount of time If a server is restarting, checking immediately before it has a chance to complete its restart and get ready would often fail, preventing the possibility of transparent restarts as supported by Prosody's mod_muc. Reconnecting immediately when a connection is closed for being idle, or because the remote server is trying to reclaim some resources, is also counter-productive as the connection may fail. Also, if there is some Internet routing problem affecting s2s, it may help to wait a bit before checking, in case the problem resolved itself in the mean time.

# mod_muc_moderation_delay

With this module, you can apply a delay to groupchat messages delivery, so that room moderators can moderate them before other participants receives them.

This module is under AGPL-3.0 license.
This module can work on any Prosody server (version >= 0.12.x).
This module is still experimental.

## Configuration

Just enable the module on your MUC component.
The feature will be accessible throught the room configuration form.

The position in the room config form can be changed be setting the option `moderation_delay_form_position`.
This value will be passed as priority for the "muc-config-form" hook.
By default, the field will be between muc#roomconfig_changesubject and muc#roomconfig_moderatedroom.

``` lua
VirtualHost "muc.example.com"
  modules_enabled = { "muc_moderation_delay" }
  moderation_delay_form_position = 96
```

## Additional notes

For moderators, messages that are delayed will contain an extra `moderation-delay` xml tag, with `delay` and `waiting` attribute:

```xml
<message xmlns="jabber:client" type="groupchat" id="18821520-e49b-4e59-b6c6-b45cc133905d" to="root@example.com/QH1H89H1" xml:lang="en" from="8df24108-6e70-4fc8-b1cc-f2db7fcdd535@room.example.com/root">
  <body>Hello world</body>
  <origin-id id="18821520-e49b-4e59-b6c6-b45cc133905d" xmlns="urn:xmpp:sid:0" />
  <markable xmlns="urn:xmpp:chat-markers:0" />
  <occupant-id id="V5gJudj4Ii3+LnikqUbSSH3NmPKO82zD+m7jRYushVY=" xmlns="urn:xmpp:occupant-id:0" />
  <stanza-id xmlns="urn:xmpp:sid:0" id="xkf36aYefSmQ9evPo1m6Neei" by="8df24108-6e70-4fc8-b1cc-f2db7fcdd535@room.example.com" />
  <moderation-delay delay="4" waiting="1720177157" />
</message>
```

Note: the `waiting` attribute is the timestamp at which the message will be broadcasted.

So compatible xmpp clients can display some information.
