+summary: HTTP module returning info about requests for debugging
+---
+
+This module returns some info about HTTP requests as Prosody sees them
+from an endpoint like `http://xmpp.example.net:5281/debug`.  This can be
+used to validate [reverse-proxy configuration][doc:http] and similar use
+cases.
+
+# Example
+
+```
+$ curl -sSf  https://xmpp.example.net:5281/debug | json_pp
+{
+   "body" : "",
+   "headers" : {
+      "accept" : "*/*",
+      "host" : "xmpp.example.net:5281",
+      "user_agent" : "curl/7.74.0"
+   },
+   "httpversion" : "1.1",
+   "id" : "jmFROQKoduU3",
+   "ip" : "127.0.0.1",
+   "method" : "GET",
+   "path" : "/debug",
+   "secure" : true,
+   "url" : {
+      "path" : "/debug"
+   }
+}
+```
+
+# Configuration
+
+HTTP Methods handled can be configured via the `http_debug_methods`
+setting. By default, the most common methods are already enabled.
+
+```lua
+http_debug_methods = { "GET"; "HEAD"; "DELETE"; "OPTIONS"; "PATCH"; "POST"; "PUT" };
+```
