+Introduction
+============
+
+This is an experimental authentication module that does an asynchronous
+HTTP call to verify username and password.
+
+Details
+=======
+
+When a user attempts to authenticate to Prosody, this module takes the
+username and password and does a HTTP GET request with [Basic
+authentication][rfc7617] to the configured `http_auth_url`.
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+``` {.lua}
+VirtualHost "example.com"
+authentication = "http_async"
+http_auth_url = "http://example.com/auth"
+```
