util.pubsub: Ensure deleted node stays in memory store deletion failed

Mon, 25 May 2026 16:23:45 +0100

util.pubsub: Ensure deleted node stays in memory store deletion failed

This looks like a copy/paste fail. The in-memory representation could get out
of sync if the storage failed to delete the node (it would report an error,
but would no longer be listed until a server restart re-read it from storage).

util.pubsub: Allow publishers to retract items they published

Tue, 31 Mar 2026 14:13:32 +0100

util.pubsub: Allow publishers to retract items they published

This requires the service configuration to provide an iteminfo() callback
which returns a table of metadata including a 'publisher' field.

Retraction is permitted only if the JID (currently) has permission to publish,
and they were the publisher of the item.

util.pubsub: Add method returning subset of config as metadata

Fri, 08 Nov 2024 02:11:00 +0100

util.pubsub: Add method returning subset of config as metadata

Allows granting read only access to other sets of users using a separate
access control capability, which makes sense as some properties may be
intended to be public but read-only.

mod_pubsub: Move precondition error wrangling out of util.pubsub

Tue, 29 Oct 2024 14:56:02 +0100

mod_pubsub: Move precondition error wrangling out of util.pubsub

Removes dependency on util.error from util.pubsub which was only used
for this one special case.

Line count reduction!

Would be even nicer if templating could be done by util.error itself.

mod_pep: Implement 'roster' (group) access_model

mod_pep: Implement 'roster' (group) access_model

Allows e.g. restricting your vcard4 to only family or similar.

Notes: This does not include roster groups in the configuration form,
so the client will have to get them from the actual roster.

util.pubsub: Fix item store resize to "max"

util.pubsub: Fix item store resize to "max"

Previously this would end up passing the "max" directly to the
underlying storage.

mod_pubsub,mod_pep: Implement 'send_last_published_item' option #1436

Tue, 19 Oct 2021 18:11:50 +0200

mod_pubsub,mod_pep: Implement 'send_last_published_item' option #1436

Default left as 'never' in mod_pubsub to preserve the previous behavior.
Unclear if this is desirable, but can always be changed later.

In mod_pep this allows turning off the automatic resending of most
recent item.

util.pubsub: Add support for limiting number of items to retrieve

util.pubsub: Add support for limiting number of items to retrieve

Hopefully this will eventually be upgraded to RSM, which is why the
argument is called 'resultspec' and is a table.

util.pubsub: Signal that 'persistent-items' is unsupported when disabled

Thu, 22 Jul 2021 19:53:21 +0200

util.pubsub: Signal that 'persistent-items' is unsupported when disabled

XEP-0060 says that this the way to indicate that 'persistent-items' is
unsupported, but doesn't explicitly say if it being disabled in the node
configuration also counts as unsupported.

util.pubsub: Fix behavior of persist_items disabled

Thu, 22 Jul 2021 21:01:11 +0200

util.pubsub: Fix behavior of persist_items disabled

When set to 'false' there is no need for a persistence interface at all,
since items are not persisted after being broadcast.

Had started wondering if maybe the behavior was wrong, after reading
parts of XEP-0060 that pointed in that direction.

Some discussion of this can be found in logs of
xmpp:xsf@muc.xmpp.org?join from around 2021-07-20

Thanks to Ralph for confirming.

mod_pubsub: Explicitly enable persistence by default to preserve behavior

Wed, 21 Jul 2021 23:35:08 +0200

mod_pubsub: Explicitly enable persistence by default to preserve behavior

Since nodes were always persistent according to the XEP-0060 definition.
Whether data is stored in memory or on disk was not what this setting
was meant for.

util.pubsub: Handle absence of node data interface

Wed, 21 Jul 2021 21:22:17 +0200

util.pubsub: Handle absence of node data interface

This is in preparation for fixing the behavior of 'persist_items', which
was misunderstood at some point. In mod_pep it toggles between
persistent storage and in-memory storage, while the correct behavior
would be to toggle whether published items are stored at all or
forgotten after being broadcast.

Backed out changeset 27d800ddc3b0 (see below)

It's uncertain whether item not existing should be success and
nil, or fail with an error.

XEP-0060's "fetch most recent item" actually fetches a list of up
to N items. N here is a maximum, not a minimum. The feeling is that
no items is simply an empty list, not a failure of the operation.

util.pubsub: Pass "retract" as the type of such broadcasts

This moves some XEP-0060 awkwardness out of util.pubsub and into mod_pubsub

A retraction is broadcast in an container, whereas most other
kinds of broadcasts are in a container with a name matching the 'kind'
attribute.

util.pubsub: For open nodes, default affiliation is "member"

Thu, 09 Aug 2018 20:27:04 +0100

util.pubsub: For open nodes, default affiliation is "member"

This allows entities without an explicit affiliation to retrieve items,
which is specified by the XEP. Table 6: "Node Access Models" states that
for 'open' nodes, "any entity may retrieve items from the node".
