mod_conversejs: Serve base app at /
This makes things slightly less awkward for the browser to figure out which
URLs belong to a PWA. The app's "start URL" was previously without the '/' and
therefore was not considered within the scope of the PWA. Now the canonical
app URL will always have a '/'.
Prosody/mod_http should take care of redirecting existing links without the
trailing / to the new URL.
If you have an installation at https://prosody/conversejs then it is now at
https://prosody/conversejs/ (the first URL will now redirect to the second
URL if you use it).
The alternative would be to make the PWA scope include the parent, i.e.
the whole of https://prosody/ in this case. This might get messy if other
PWAs are provided by the same site or Prosody installation, however.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Alpha' summary: A web interface to register user accounts rockspec: build: copy_directories: - templates ... Introduction ------------ There are various reasons to prefer web registration instead of "in-band" account registration over XMPP. For example the lack of CAPTCHA support in clients and servers. Details ------- mod\_register\_web has Prosody serve a web page where users can sign up for an account. It implements reCAPTCHA to prevent automated sign-ups (from bots, etc.). Configuration ------------- The module is served on Prosody's default HTTP ports at the path `/register_web`. More details on configuring HTTP modules in Prosody can be found in our [HTTP documentation](http://prosody.im/doc/http). To configure the CAPTCHA you need to supply a 'captcha\_options' option: captcha_options = { recaptcha_private_key = "12345"; recaptcha_public_key = "78901"; } The keys for reCAPTCHA are available in your reCAPTCHA account, visit [reCAPTCHA](https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/) for more info. If no reCaptcha options are set, a simple built in captcha is used. Customization ------------- Copy the files in mod_register_web/templates/ to a new directory. Edit them, and set `register_web_template = "/path/to/your/custom-templates"` in your config file. Compatibility ------------- ----- -------------- 0.10 Works 0.9 Works 0.8 Doesn't work ----- -------------- Todo ---- Different CAPTCHA implementation support Collection of additional data, such as email address The module kept simple!
