5 Introduction
6 ============
7
8 Sometimes it's useful to have different interfaces to access XMPP.
9
10 This module allows sending XMPP
11 [`<message>`](https://xmpp.org/rfcs/rfc6121.html#message) stanzas via a
12 simple HTTP API.
13
14 Example usage
15 -------------
16
17 curl http://example.com:5280/msg/user -u me@example.com:mypassword -H "Content-Type: text/plain" -d "Server@host has just crashed!"
18
19 This would send a message to user\@example.com from me\@example.com
20
21 Details
22 =======
23
24 URL format
25 ----------
26
27 /msg/ [recipient [@host] ].
28
29 The base URL defaults to `/msg`. This can be configured via Prosodys
30 [HTTP path settings][doc:http].
31
32 Authentication
33 --------------
34
35 Authentication is done by HTTP Basic.
36
37 Authentication: Basic BASE64( "username@virtualhost:password" )
38
39 Payload formats
40 ---------------
41
42 Supported formats are:
43
44 `text/plain`
45 : The HTTP body is used as plain text message payload, in the `<body>`
46 element.
47
48 `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`
49 : Allows more fields to be specified.
50
51 `application/json`
52 : Similar to form data.
53
54 Which one is selected via the `Content-Type` HTTP header.
55
56 ### Data fields
57
58 The form data and JSON formats allow the following fields:
59
60 `to`
61 : Can be used instead of having the receiver in the URL.
62
63 `type`
64 : [Message type.](https://xmpp.org/rfcs/rfc6121.html#message-syntax-type)
65
66 `body`
67 : Plain text message payload which goes in the `<body>` element.

77 [mod_rest] is a more advanced way to send messages and more via HTTP,
78 with a very similar API.
