mod_http_oauth2: Apply refresh token ttl to refresh token instead of grant The intent in 59d5fc50f602 was for refresh tokens to extend the lifetime of the grant, but the refresh token ttl was applied to the grant and mod_tokenauth does not change it, leading to the grant expiring regardless of refresh token usage. This makes grant lifetimes unlimited, which seems to be standard practice in the wild.

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

This is an authentication module for the SASL OAUTHBEARER mechanism, as provided by `mod_sasl_oauthbearer`.

You can use this to log in via OAuth, for example if you want your user's to log in with Github, Twitter, Reddit etc.

The XMPP client needs get an OAuth token from the provider (e.g. Github) and send that to Prosody.
This module will then verify that token by calling the `oauth_url` you've configured.

Configuration
=============

Per VirtualHost, you'll need to supply your OAuth client Id, secret and the URL which
Prosody must call in order to verify the OAuth token it receives from the XMPP client.

For example, for Github:

	oauth_client_id = "13f8e9cc8928b3409822"
	oauth_client_secret = "983161fd3ah608ea7ef35382668aad1927463978"
	oauth_url = "https://api.github.com/applications/{{oauth_client_id}}/tokens/{{password}}";

	authentication = "oauthbearer"
