<title>Overview</title>
<para>
This module implements various utility functions that are not SIP
related.
</para>
<para>
Function http_query allows &kamailio; to issue an HTTP GET
request and get access to parts of the reply.
</para>
<para>
The forward functionality allows &kamailio; to configure forwarding
at runtime with FIFO commands. The forwarding is executed in the pre
script call back and therefore handled before the routing script is
executed on the current message. The callback is not installed on
default, thus this functionality has no runtime overhead when its
deactivated.
</para>
<para>
Function xcap_auth_status can be used to check from presence
server database, if watcher is authorized to subscribe event
<quote>presence</quote> of presentity.

which must be a writable pseudo variable.
</para>
<para>
Function returns reply code of HTTP reply or -1
if something went wrong.
</para>
<para>
This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE,
ONREPLY_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, and BRANCH_ROUTE.
</para>

Special filters are:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>REQUEST (matches on every request)</listitem>
<listitem>REPLY (matches on every reply)</listitem>

names of the sip messages. The syntax of this configuration
string is described in 1.6. (filter_setting_list).
