# Introduction

This module lets you manage subscriptions to pubsub nodes via simple

chat messages. Subscriptions are always added based on bare JID. The

`include_body` flag is enabled so that a plain text body version of

events can be included, where supported.

# Configuring

``` {.lua}

Component "pubsub.example.com" "pubsub"

modules_enabled = {

    "pubsub_text_interface",

}

```

# Commands

The following commands are supported. Simply send a normal chat message

to the PubSub component where this module is enabled. When subscribing

or unsubscribing, be sure to replace `node` with the node you want to

subscribe to or unsubscribe from.

-   `help` - a help message, listing these commands

-   `list` - list available nodes

-   `subscribe node` - subscribe to a node

-   `unsubscribe node` - unsubscribe from a node

-   `last node` - sends the last published item from the node to you

# Compatibility

Should work with Prosody since 0.9, when

[mod\_pubsub][doc:modules:mod_pubsub] was introduced.

The `last` command is available from Prosody 0.11.
