XMPP Web Registration

pic

A simple web-based registration system for a Prosody XMPP server. It allows users to create XMPP accounts via a web form with:

  • Username & domain selection
  • Password & confirmation
  • CAPTCHA verification to prevent bots

Backend implemented in Perl using:

  • CGI for handling web requests
  • Authen::Captcha for CAPTCHA generation & validation
  • Expect to automate prosodyctl adduser

Includes front-end HTML/CSS pages for registration and error handling.

Requirements

  • Prosody XMPP server
  • Perl modules: CGI, Authen::Captcha, Expect
  • doas for privilege escalation (or sudo)

doas configuration

Add the following line to doas.conf to allow the web server user to create XMPP accounts without a password:

permit nopass www as root cmd /usr/local/bin/prosodyctl

Usage

  1. Configure config.pl with valid domains.
  2. Serve the HTML/CSS files and CGI scripts via a web server.
  3. Users can register XMPP accounts securely through the web interface.
