mod_pubsub_feeds: Track latest timestamp seen in feeds instead of last poll
This should ensure that an entry that has a publish timestmap after the
previously oldest post, but before the time of the last poll check, is
published to the node.
Previously if an entry would be skipped if it was published at 13:00
with a timestamp of 12:30, where the last poll was at 12:45.
For feeds that lack a timestamp, it now looks for the first post that is
not published, assuming that the feed is in reverse chronological order,
then iterates back up from there.

--- summary: Module for improving the life of bot authors --- This module makes it easier to write MUC bots by removing the requirement that the bot be online and joined to the room. All the bot needs to do is send a message and this module handles the rest. # Configuration Example configuration in Prosody: ```lua Component "muc.example.com" "muc" modules_enabled = { "muc_bot", } known_bots = { "bot@example.com" } bots_get_messages = false ignore_bot_errors = true ``` # Sending messages Simply send a stanza like this from your bot: ```xml <message type="groupchat" to="channel@muc.example.com"> <body>Beep boop, I'm a bot!</body> <nick xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/nick">Botty</nick> </message> ``` ## Use with mod_rest Using [mod_rest] to interact with MUC suffers from the same need to join with an online resource, so this module helps with that as well! ```bash curl https://xmpp.example.com/rest/message/groupchat/room@muc.example.com \ -d body="beep boop" \ -d nick="Botty" ``` # Compatibility Works with Prosody 0.12 or later.
