summary: Provides a web interface to stored chatroom logs

...

Introduction

============

This module provides a built-in web interface to view chatroom logs

stored by [mod\_mam\_muc].

Installation

============

Same as any other module, be sure to include the HTML template

`http_muc_log.html` alongside `mod_http_muc_log.lua`.

Configuration

=============

For example:

``` lua

Component "conference.example.com" "muc"

modules_enabled = {

    "mam_muc";

    "http_muc_log";

}

storage = {

    muc_log = "sql"; -- for example

}

```

The web interface would then be reachable at the address:

    http://conference.example.com:5280/muc_log/

See [the page about Prosodys HTTP server][doc:http] for info about the

address.

## Styling

The default HTML template lives in `http_muc_log.html` in the same

directory as the module, but can be changed by setting

`http_muc_log_template` to point to a different file. The same template,

with different input is used for every view.

The module uses [util.interpolation][doc:developers:util:interpolation]

for rendering templates, with the pattern `"%b{}"` and HTML / XML

escaping enabled.

Compatibility

=============

Requires Prosody 0.10 or above and a storage backend with support for

stanza archives. See [mod\_storage\_muc\_log] for using legacy data from

[mod\_muc\_log].
