1 #summary XEP-0191: Simple Communications Blocking support
2 #labels Stage-Alpha
3
4 = Introduction =
5
6 Privacy lists are a widely implemented protocol for instructing your server on blocking communications with selected users and services.
7
8 However experience has shown that the power and flexibility of the rule-based system that privacy lists allow is very often much more complex than the user needs, and that in most cases a simple block on all communications to or from a list of specified JIDs would suffice.
9
10 Such a protocol would also allow much simpler user interface design than the current attempts at full privacy list interfaces.
11
12 = Details =
13
14 Simple Communications Blocking was developed to solve the above issues, and allows the client to manage a simple list of blocked JIDs. This plugin implements support for that protocol in Prosody, however the actual blocking is still managed by mod_privacy, so it is *required* for that plugin to be loaded (this may change in future).
15
16 An XEP-0191 implementation without dependency on mod_privacy is available in Prosody 0.10 as [https://prosody.im/doc/modules/mod_blocklist mod_blocklist].
17
18 = Configuration =
19 Simply ensure that mod_privacy (or mod_privacy_lists in 0.10+) and mod_blocking are loaded in your modules_enabled list:
20
21 {{{
22 modules_enabled = {
23 -- ...
24 "privacy", -- or privacy_lists in Prosody 0.10+
25 "blocking",
26 -- ...
27 }}}
