This mod is based on
another compost mod. The original author suggested (
here) that I release my changes separately. Hence this topic.
Mod details
Compost bins turn organic matter like leaves, flowers, grass etc into soil.
Crafting a composting bin requires 6 pieces of any wood and a wooden slab. An empty compost bin looks like a hollow block of wood. To operate the bin, right- or left-click it. Right-clicking a compost opens a menu: eight slots for organic inputs and one slot for soil. To compost your leaves, flowers and grasses (not food), place them into the input slots. Alternatively, punch (left-click) the bin with something compostable. As soon as there are 8 items inside, the process begins. It takes 5 minutes to produce one block of soil. To see composting progress, just point at the bin. The result of composting is normal dirt. To take it from the bin, right-click and move it into your inventory or, alternatively, punch the bin with a bare hand.
Composting might be very useful in dirtless worlds and in hostile biomes. It can also be a good educational tool in promoting environmental awareness, ecology and recycling.

Thanks
Credit for the idea goes to
cd2, whose work was used as a basis. Current functionality was inspired by comments (from
Diamond knight,
veikk0,
Martno,
Don et al.) in his topic. Thank you all!
P.S.: My first mod.

Since I started with minetest I wanted to do a compost bin like this, but I somehow never came around to make it. Now you wrote it just like I imagined it! It is wonderful!

Depends. If the node was defined to be in group leaves, flora or flower, it is good to go.
runs'
Cool Trees, for example, is largely if not completely compatible.
If not, you need to add it specifically, or, maybe easier, add the group category to the mod which did not use groups, and ideally submit a pull request to the author of that mod.
