mod_auth_cyrus: Add empty 'profile' table to SASL handler objects This is for compatibility with Prosody's built-in util.sasl objects. A SASL profile table usually includes methods supported by the backend, which can be used by SASL mechanism handlers to perform operations (such as testing the password). It also optionally contains a 'cb' field with channel binding method handlers. The Cyrus backend doesn't support channel binding, and doesn't have the same concept of auth backend methods (it handles all that internally, and Prosody has no insight or control over it). Thus, we create an empty profile which informs Prosody that the SASL handler does not support any of the auth or channel binding methods. Some features will not work, but they didn't work anyway. This just makes it explicit. This fixes a traceback in mod_sasl2_fast, which expected SASL handlers to always contain a 'profile' field.

summary: MongoDB Storage Module
...

Introduction
============

This is a storage backend that uses MongoDB. Depends on [luamongo
bindings](https://github.com/mwild1/luamongo)

This module is not under active development and has a number of issues
related to limitations in MongoDB. It is not suitable for production
use.

Configuration
=============

Copy the module to the prosody modules/plugins directory.

In Prosody's configuration file, set:

    storage = "mongodb"

MongoDB options are:

  Name         Description
  ------------ -------------------------------------------------------------------
  server       hostname:port
  username     your username for the given database
  password     your password for the given database (either raw or pre-digested)
  is\_digest   whether the password field has been pre-digested

Compatibility
=============

  ------- ---------------------------
  trunk   Untested, but should work
