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.

summary: JSON Encodings for XMPP
...

Introduction
============

This plugin encodes XMPP as JSON. This is an implementation of
[XEP-0295: JSON Encodings for
XMPP](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0295.html).

Simply loading this module makes Prosody accept JSON on C2S streams
(legacy XML clients are still supported).

For BOSH, it requires mod\_bosh be loaded, and JSON should be directed
at the `/jsonstreams` HTTP path.

JSON for S2S isn't supported due to the lack of a discovery mechanism,
so we have left that disabled to stay compatible with legacy XML
servers.

Configuration
=============

Just add `"json_streams"` in your config's global `modules_enabled`
list, for example:

    modules_enabled = {
        ...
        "json_streams";
    }

Strophe.js plugin
=================

We also developed a [JSON streams
plugin](http://prosody-modules.googlecode.com/hg/mod_json_streams/strophe.jsonstreams.js)
for the popular [strophe.js](http://code.stanziq.com/strophe) library.

Just include it like this after including the strophe library, and your
strophe-based client will be speaking JSON:

    <script type="text/javascript" src="strophe.jsonstreams.js"></script>

Be sure to set the HTTP path to `/jsonstreams`. No other changes are
required.
