3 = Introduction = | |
4 | |
5 Pastebins are used very often in IM, especially in chat rooms. You have a long log or command output which you need to send to someone over IM, and don't want to fill their message window with it. Put it on a pastebin site, and give them the URL instead, simple. | |
6 | |
7 Not for everyone... no matter how hard you try, people will be unaware, or not care. They may also be too lazy to visit a pastebin. This is where mod_pastebin comes in! | |

11 When someone posts to a room a "large" (configurable) message, Prosody will intercept the message and convert it to a URL pointing to a built-in pastebin server. The URLs are randomly generated, so they can be considered for most purposes to be private, and cannot be discovered by people who are not in the room. |

13 = Usage = | |
14 | |
15 Load mod_pastebin onto the MUC component (interestingly it can also be loaded on normal hosts and it will intercept standard chat messages). | |
16 | |
17 For example: | |
18 {{{ | |
19 Component "conference.example.com" "muc" | |
20 modules_enabled = { "pastebin" } | |
21 }}} | |
22 | |
23 = Configuration = | |
24 ||pastebin_ports||List of ports to run the HTTP server on, same format as mod_httpserver's http_ports|| | |
