Ejabberd external autorization with NodeJS

I am developing ejabberd external authorization with ejabberd but it does not seem to work

I used ejabberd-auth npm module and set ejabberd.yml as follows

auth_method: external
extauth_program: "node ~/ejabberd-auth/index.js"

but it does not work as expected. I see no response in my ejavverd log file.

I also tried using ejabberd_http_auth module for using http authorization for ejabberd and build a rest interface for it using express but don't see any requests forwarded to ejabberd in logs and authentication does not work. I used following configuration for http authentication:

auth_method: http
auth_opts:
  host: "http://localhost:9095"
  connection_pool_size: 10
  connection_opts: []
  basic_auth: ""
  path_prefix: "/"

Can anyone guide me what i am doing wrong here?
