+ <title>Basic usage</title>
+
+ <para>
+ A common struggle for most XMPP newcomers is to find the right set
+ of XMPP Extensions (XEPs) to setup. Forget to activate a few of
+ those and your XMPP experience might turn into a nightmare!
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The XMPP community tackles this problem by creating a meta-XEP
+ listing a decent set of XEPs you should implement. This meta-XEP
+ is issued every year, the 2020 edition being
+ <link xlink:href="https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0423.html">XEP-0423</link>.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The NixOS Prosody module will implement most of these recommendend XEPs out of
+ the box. That being said, two components still require some
+ manual configuration: the
+ <link xlink:href="https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html">Multi User Chat (MUC)</link>
+ and the <link xlink:href="https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0363.html">HTTP File Upload</link> ones.
+ You'll need to create a DNS subdomain for each of those. The current convention is to name your
+ MUC endpoint <literal>conference.example.org</literal> and your HTTP upload domain <literal>upload.example.org</literal>.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ A good configuration to start with, including a
+ <link xlink:href="https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html">Multi User Chat (MUC)</link>
+ endpoint as well as a <link xlink:href="https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0363.html">HTTP File Upload</link>
+ endpoint will look like this:
+ <programlisting>

+ <title>Let's Encrypt Configuration</title>
+ <para>
+ As you can see in the code snippet from the
+ <link linkend="module-services-prosody-basic-usage">previous section</link>,
+ you'll need a single TLS certificate covering your main endpoint,
+ the MUC one as well as the HTTP Upload one. We can generate such a
+ certificate by leveraging the ACME
+ <link linkend="opt-security.acme.certs._name_.extraDomains">extraDomains</link> module option.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Provided the setup detailed in the previous section, you'll need the following acme configuration to generate
+ a TLS certificate for the three endponits:
+ <programlisting>
+security.acme = {
+ <link linkend="opt-security.acme.email">email</link> = "root@example.org";
+ <link linkend="opt-security.acme.acceptTerms">acceptTerms</link> = true;
+ <link linkend="opt-security.acme.certs">certs</link> = {
+ "example.org" = {
+ <link linkend="opt-security.acme.certs._name_.webroot">webroot</link> = "/var/www/example.org";
+ <link linkend="opt-security.acme.certs._name_.email">email</link> = "root@example.org";
+ <link linkend="opt-security.acme.certs._name_.extraDomains">extraDomains."conference.example.org"</link> = null;

+ };
+ };
+};</programlisting>
