DJabber...::SQLite(3)

📦 version 1.00, in arch rolling

💅 DJabberd::RosterStorage::SQLite

okay so bestie, this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation for the module DJabberd::RosterStorage::SQLite — and yes the man page header literally abbreviates it as DJabber...::SQLite(3) because apparently even Perl docs get tired. we're gonna get through this together, bestie 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

DJabberd::RosterStorage::SQLite — store your jabber roster in SQLite 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

okay so here's the vibe, you drop this into your config like it's a little love letter:

<Vhost yourserver.com>
   ...
   <Plugin DJabberd::RosterStorage::SQLite>
      Database roster.sqlite
   </Plugin>
   ...
 </VHost>

(and yes, </VHost> is capital-H in the original and </Vhost> is capital-V-only up top — that's genuinely how it's written, we do not touch it, periodt 💅)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what does this actually do? it stores your Jabber roster — that's your "buddy list", iykyk 🌸 — in an SQLite database. that's it, that's the whole thing.

and the best part? the schema is automatically created on first use ✨ like it literally builds its own little house and moves in. iconic behavior, no notes.

💀 WARNING: BLOCKS! 💀

okay bestie, listen to me very carefully, this is the important part 🙈

this plugin blocks. like, it does not do database access async in a separate thread. it's just gonna sit there and hold everything up while it talks to SQLite. so if you want DJabberd to perform well with lots of users? this is not a good plugin to use. fr fr. 😭

that said — and this is sending me — a certain company is using this for ~100 employees with no problems. so like. make of that what you will 💀✨
