mod_http_oauth2: Fix removal of consumed authorization codes Fixes mod_http_oauth2.lua:34: bad argument #2 to 'difftime' (number expected, got nil) The extra preceding argument to :set stored the client-id#code as a value instead of clearing the key, and then later in the periodic cleanup timer this string would be indexed, producing a nil and a traceback

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"
```

Compatibility
=============

Requires Prosody trunk
