mod_invite/README.markdown @ 5931:d194d1012fd3

Updating dox for mod_rest. Ideas expressed / clarified: 1) Making clear that mod_rest isn't to be installed under VirtualHosts AND as a component. 2) Understanding some of the implications of this choice: A) Changes to user authentication B) How it affects subdomains 3) More consistent use of domain names for clarity. 4) Using different heading sizes to show scope of section. Essentially, I added all the tidbits I had to clarify in getting this to work in my own example.

**NOTE:** This module has been deprecated. Its functionality has been
moved to other modules, see the mod_invites documentation for details.

Introduction
============

This module allows users with an account to generate single-use invite URLs
using an ad-hoc command. The invite URLs allow new users to create an account
even if public registration is disabled.

After the account is created, the inviter and the invitee are automatically
added to the other's roster. The inviter of a user is stored, so can be used
later (for example, for detecting spammers).

This module depends on Prosody's internal webserver.
