1.1. Overview

   This is mostly an example module. It implements text based operation
   (search, replace, append a.s.o). Many functions support xl_lib
   formating using xprint module.

1.1.1. Known Limitations

   search ignores folded lines. For example, search("(From|f):.*@foo.bar")
   doesn't match the following From header field:
From: medabeda
 <sip:medameda@foo.bar>;tag=1234

1.2. Functions

1.2.1.  search(re)

   Searches for the re in the message.

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * re - Regular expression.

   Example 1. search usage
...
if ( search("[Ss][Ee][Rr]" ) { /*....*/ };
...

1.2.2.  search_append(re, txt)

   Searches for the first match of re and appends txt after it.

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * re - Regular expression.
     * txt - String to be appended. Xl_lib formatting supported.

   Example 2. search_append usage
...
search_append("[Ss]er", " blabla");
...

1.2.3.  replace(re, txt)

   Replaces the first occurrence of re with txt.

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * re - Regular expression.
     * txt - String. Xl_lib formatting supported.

   Example 3. replace usage
...
replace("ser", "Sip Express Router");
...

1.2.4.  subst('/re/repl/flags')

   Replaces re with repl (sed or perl like).

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * '/re/repl/flags' - sed like regular expression. flags can be a
       combination of i (case insensitive), g (global) or s (match newline
       don't treat it as end of line).

   Example 4. subst usage
...
# replace the uri in to: with the message uri (just an example)
if ( subst('/^To:(.*)sip:[^@]*@[a-zA-Z0-9.]+(.*)$/t:\1\u\2/ig') ) {};
...

1.2.5.  subst_uri('/re/repl/flags')

   Runs the re substitution on the message uri (like subst but works only
   on the uri)

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * '/re/repl/flags' - sed like regular expression. flags can be a
       combination of i (case insensitive), g (global) or s (match newline
       don't treat it as end of line).

   Example 5. subst usage
...
# adds 3463 prefix to numeric uris, and save the original uri (\0 match)
# as a parameter: orig_uri (just an example)
if (subst_uri('/^sip:([0-9]+)@(.*)$/sip:3463\1@\2;orig_uri=\0/i')){$
...

1.2.6.  subst_user('/re/repl/flags')

   Runs the re substitution on the message uri (like subst_uri but works
   only on the user portion of the uri)

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * '/re/repl/flags' - sed like regular expression. flags can be a
       combination of i (case insensitive), g (global) or s (match newline
       don't treat it as end of line).

   Example 6. subst usage
...
# adds 3463 prefix to uris ending with 3642 (just an example)
if (subst_user('/3642$/36423463/')){$
...

1.2.7.  append_to_reply(txt)

   Append txt to the reply.

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

...
append_hf("P-hint: VOICEMAIL\r\n");
...

1.2.9.  append_urihf(prefix, suffix)

   Append header field name with original Request-URI in middle.

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * prefix - string (usually at least header field name). Xl_lib
       formatting supported.
     * suffix - string (usually at least line terminator). Xl_lib
       formatting supported.

   Example 9. append_urihf usage
...
append_urihf("CC-Diversion: ", "\r\n");
...

1.2.10.  is_present_hf(hf_name)

   Return true if a header field is present in message.

Note

   Takes header field names "as is" and doesn't distinguish compact names.

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * hf_name - Header field name.

   Example 10. is_present_hf usage
...
if (is_present_hf("From")) log(1, "From HF Present");
...

1.2.11.  append_time()

   Append "Date" header containing the current date and time to the reply
   generated by SER.

   Example 11. is_present_hf usage

   append at the end of list. Note that a header may consist of comma
   delimited list of values.

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * hf - Header field to be appended. Format: HFNAME [ [IDX] ]. If
       index is not specified new header is inserted at the end of
       message.
     * xl_value - Value to be added, xl_lib formatting supported.

   Example 14. append_hf_value usage
...
append_hf_value("foo", "gogo;stamp=%Ts")   # add new header
append_hf_value("foo[1]", "gogo")  # add new value behind first value

xists add new header
...

1.2.15.  insert_hf_value(hf, xl_value)

   Insert new header value before an existing header, if no index acquired
   insert before first hf header. Note that a header may consist of comma
   delimited list of values. To insert value behing last value use
   appenf_hf_value.

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

...
insert_hf_value("foo[2]", "gogo")

   consist of comma delimited list of values.

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * hf_par - Header field/param to be removed. Format: HFNAME [ [IDX] ]
       [. PARAM ] If asterisk is specified as index then all values are
       affected.

   Example 16. remove_hf_value usage
...
remove_hf_value("foo")  # remove foo[1]
remove_hf_value("foo[*]")  # remove all foo's headers
remove_hf_value("foo[-1]") # last foo
remove_hf_value("foo.bar")  # delete parameter
remove_hf_value("foo[*].bar") # for each foo delete bar parameters
...

1.2.17.  remove_hf_value2(hf_par)

   Authorization format (comma delimiters are not treated as multi-value
   delimiters).

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * hf_par - Header/param to be removed. Format: HFNAME [ [IDX] ] [.
       PARAM ] If asterisk is specified as index then all values are
       affected.

   Example 17. remove_hf_value2 usage

remove_hf_value2("foo")  # remove foo[1]
remove_hf_value2("foo[*]")  # remove all foo's headers, the same as remove_hf_he
ader("foo[*]");

remove_hf_value2("foo[*].bar") # for each foo delete bar parameters
...

1.2.18.  assign_hf_value(hf, xl_value)

       values are affected.
     * xl_value - Value to be assigned, xl_lib formatting supported. If
       value is empty then no equal sign apears in param.

   Example 18. assign_hf_value usage
...
assign_hf_value("foo", "gogo")  # foo[1]
assign_hf_value("foo[-1]", "gogo")  # foo[last_foo]

assign_hf_value("foo.bar", "")

}

if (@hf_value_exists.supported.path == "1") {

}
...

1.2.23.  @hf_value selects

   Get value of required header-value or param. Note that functions called
   'value2' works with Authorization-like headers where comma is not
   treated as value delimiter. Formats: @hf_value.HFNAME[IDX] # idx value,
   negative value counts from bottom @hf_value.HFNAME.PARAM_NAME
   @hf_value.HFNAME[IDX].PARAM_NAME @hf_value.HFNAME.p.PARAM_NAME # or
   .param., useful if requred called "uri", "p", "param"
   @hf_value.HFNAME[IDX].p.PARAM_NAME # dtto @hf_value.HFNAME[IDX].uri #
   (< & > excluded) @hf_value.HFNAME[*] # return comma delimited list of

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
     * HFNAME - Header field name. Underscores are treated as dashes.
     * IDX - Value index, negative value counts from bottom
