mod_measure_modules: Report module statuses via OpenMetrics Someone in the chat asked about a health check endpoint, which reminded me of mod_http_status, which provides access to module statuses with full details. After that, this idea came about, which seems natural. As noted in the README, it could be used to monitor that critical modules are in fact loaded correctly. As more modules use the status API, the more useful this module and mod_http_status becomes.

- [mod_invites_adhoc]
- [mod_invites_page]
- [mod_invites_register]
- [mod_invites_api]
- [mod_register_apps]

For details and a full overview, start with the [mod_invites] documentation.

Details
=======

mod_invites_register_web implements a web-based registration form that
validates invite tokens. It also supports guiding the user through client
download and configuration via mod_register_apps.

There is no specific configuration for this module (though it uses the
optional `site_name` to override the displayed site name.

You may also set `webchat_url` to the URL of a web chat that will be linked
to after successful registration. If not specified but mod_conversejs is loaded
on the current host, it will default to the URL of that module.

This module depends on mod_invites_page solely for the case where an invalid
invite token is received - it will redirect to mod_invites_page so that an
appropriate error can be served to the user.

The module also depends on [mod_password_policy] (which will be automatically
loaded). As a consequence of this module being loaded, the default password
policies will be enforced for all registrations on the server if not
explicitly loaded or configured.
