mod_broadcast

Introduction

This module largely duplicates the functionality of the standard mod_announce that is included with Prosody. It was developed for compatibility with some clients (e.g. iChat) that do not support ad-hoc commands or sending to JIDs with the format ‘example.com/announce/online’.

It may also be useful in other specific cases.

Configuration

Component "broadcast@example.com" "broadcast"

By default, only server admins are allowed to post to this address. You can override this, by specifying the ‘broadcast_senders’ option:

Component "broadcast@example.com" "broadcast"
    broadcast_senders = { "user1@example.com", "user2@example.com" }

Compatibility

0.9 Works
0.10 Works
trunk Doesn’t work (uses is_admin)

Installation

With the plugin installer in Prosody 0.12 you can use:

sudo prosodyctl install --server=https://modules.prosody.im/rocks/ mod_broadcast

For earlier versions see the documentation for installing 3rd party modules
