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.

This module adds a `portcheck` command to the [shell][doc:console]
intended for use with health checks, i.e. to check whether Prosody is
listening to all expected ports.

# Usage

After installing and enabling the module a command like this becomes
available:

``` bash
prosodyctl shell "portcheck [::]:5222 *:5222 [::]:5269 *:5269"
```

This would check if the c2s (`5222`) and s2s (`5269`) ports are
available on both IPv6 (`*`) and *Legacy IP*^[often referred to as IPv4].

# Compatibility

Compatible with Prosody **trunk**, will **not** work with 0.11.x or
earlier.
