mod_rest: Move dataforms into structure for more logical code order
Needs that `local x; x = ...` trick to make the mapping table be in
scope for all the inner functions.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Alpha' summary: 'XEP-0191: Simple Communications Blocking support' ... Introduction ============ Privacy lists are a widely implemented protocol for instructing your server on blocking communications with selected users and services. However experience has shown that the power and flexibility of the rule-based system that privacy lists allow is very often much more complex than the user needs, and that in most cases a simple block on all communications to or from a list of specified JIDs would suffice. Such a protocol would also allow much simpler user interface design than the current attempts at full privacy list interfaces. Details ======= Simple Communications Blocking was developed to solve the above issues, and allows the client to manage a simple list of blocked JIDs. This plugin implements support for that protocol in Prosody, however the actual blocking is still managed by mod\_privacy, so it is **required** for that plugin to be loaded (this may change in future). An XEP-0191 implementation without dependency on mod\_privacy is available in Prosody 0.10 as [mod\_blocklist][doc:modules:mod_blocklist]. Configuration ============= Simply ensure that mod\_privacy (or [mod\_privacy\_lists] in 0.10+) and mod\_blocking are loaded in your modules\_enabled list: modules_enabled = { -- ... "privacy", -- or privacy_lists in Prosody 0.10+ "blocking", -- ... Compatibility ============= ------ --------------------------------------------- 0.10 Works but will conflict with mod\_blocklist 0.9 Works 0.8 Works 0.7 Works 0.6 Doesn't work ------ ---------------------------------------------
