This module will send a confirmation/acknowledgement message to your sender when your message has been received by the ejabberd server and another confirmation/acknowledgement message when your message has been received by the recipient of the message. It provides the same functionality in this regard as the mobile chat app "WhatsApp".

• First we need to compile this .erl file into a .beam file by running the following command:

  erlc -I ${EJABBERD_SRC} mod_stanza_ack.erl

  {EJABBERD_SRC} must be replaced with the actual location of your ejabberd source files, e.g. /home/foobar/ejabberd/src. An example of this folder can be found at https://github.com/processone/ejabberd/tree/13.03-beta1/src

• Move the compiled .beam file to the ebin folder of ejabberd (e.g. /lib/ejabberd/ebin) using the following command:

  mv mod_stanza_ack.beam /lib/ejabberd/ebin

• Add the module to the ejabberd.cfg to the existing list of modules:

  {mod_stanza_ack, [{host, "foobar.com"}]}

• Restart ejabberd:

  ejabberdctl restart

This is an ejabberd module for ejabberd 13.xx

mod_stanza_ack v0.6 Added license information

mod_stanza_ack v0.5 (initial release) Implements and extends XEP-0184 message receipts: This module will send message acknowledgements on behalf of the recipient and also on behalf of the server.
