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.

# Introduction

Many projects have a support room accessible via a web chat. This module
allows making the URL to such a web chat discoverable via the XMPP
service discovery protocol, enabling e.g. [search
engines](https://search.jabbercat.org/) to index and present these.

# Configuring

## Enabling

``` {.lua}
Component "rooms.example.net" "muc"
modules_enabled = {
    "muc_webchat_url";
}
```

## Settings

The URL is configured using the in-band MUC room configuration protocol.

The module can optionally be configured to give all public (not
members-only, hidden or password protected) rooms gain a default value
based on a template:

``` {.lua}
muc_webchat_baseurl = "https://chat.example.com/join?room={node}"
```

The following variables will be subsituted with room address details:

`{jid}`
:   The complete room address, eg `room@muc.example.com`ยท

`{node}`
:   The local part (before the `@`) of the room JID.

`{host}`
:   The domain name part of the room JID.
