1. Overview
The EVAPI module can be used to create an event message flow from
Kamailio to any application that can connect to a TCP socket. The
remote application can also issue messages received by Kamailio.
There is no protocol definition, it is all up to the author of the
routing script. Events can be generated for any event in Kamailio. For
3rd party transaction control, a transaction can be automatically
suspended when sending the event, to be resumed at a later point, maybe
triggered by an incoming message on the event socket.
2. Dependencies
2.1. Kamailio Modules
2.2. External Libraries or Applications
2.1. Kamailio Modules
The following modules must be loaded before this module:
* tm - (optional) needed only by evapi_async_relay()
2.2. External Libraries or Applications
The following libraries or applications must be installed before
running Kamailio with this module loaded:
* libev - http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev.html
3. Parameters
3.1. workers (int)
3.2. bind_addr (str)
3.3. netstring_format (int)
3.1. workers (int)
Number of worker processes to be started to handle incoming messages
from remote applications.
Default value is 1.
Example 1.1. Set workers parameter
...
modparam("evapi", "workers", 2)
...
3.2. bind_addr (str)
Local IP and port to listen on for incoming TCP connections.
Default value is "127.0.0.1:8448".
Example 1.2. Set bind_addr parameter
...
modparam("evapi", "bind_addr", "1.2.3.4:8228")
...
3.3. netstring_format (int)
Control if messages on the socket (to and from clients) are
encapsulated in netstring format.
Default value is 1 (netstring format).
Example 1.3. Set netstring_format parameter
...
modparam("evapi", "netstring_format", 0)
...
4. Functions
4.1. evapi_relay(evdata)
4.2. evapi_async_relay(evdata)
4.3. evapi_close()
4.1. evapi_relay(evdata)
Relay the event data given as parameter to connected applications.
The format on the network is netstring with evdata payload if
netstring_format parameter is set to 1 or bare evdata if
netstring_format parameter is set to 0.
The function is passing the task to evapi dispatcher process, therefore
the SIP worker process is not blocked. Also, it doesn't wait for any
response, therefore the processing of the configuration continues very
fast when executing evapi_relay().
This function can be used from ANY_ROUTE.
Example 1.4. evapi_relay usage
...
evapi_relay("{ \"event\": \"test\",\n \"data\": { \"fU\": \"$fU\" }\n}");
...
The above exaple will send the following message over tcp:
Example 1.5. TCP message
...
47:{
"event": "test",
"data": { "fU": "test" }
},
...
4.2. evapi_async_relay(evdata)
Relay the event data given as parameter to connected applications.
Before evaluating the parameter, the request processing is suspended
using tm module (using the t_suspend()/t_continue() framework). The
routing of the SIP request can be continued once
event_route[evapi:message-received] is triggered. After
evapi_async_relay() returns true, no relaying should happen in
request_route(), it should be followed by exit;.
The format on the network is netstring with evdata payload if
netstring_format parameter is set to 1 or bare evdata if
netstring_format parameter is set to 0.
This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE.
Example 1.6. evapi_async_relay usage
...
evapi_async_relay("{ \"event\": \"suspend\",\n \"data\":"
" { \"index\": \"$T(id_index)\", \"label\": \"$T(id_label)\" }\n}");
...
4.3. evapi_close()
Close evapi current client connection.
This function can be used from ANY_ROUTE.
Example 1.7. evapi_evapi usage
...
event_route[evapi:connection-new] {
if($evapi(srcaddr)!="127.0.0.1") {
evapi_close();
exit;
}
}
...
5. Event routes
5.1. evapi:connection-new
5.2. evapi:connection-closed
5.3. evapi:message-received
5.1. evapi:connection-new
If defined, the module calls event_route[evapi:connection-new] when a
new client is connected.
...
event_route[evapi:connection-new] {
xlog("new connection from $evapi(srcaddr):$evapi(srcport)\n");
}
...
5.2. evapi:connection-closed
If defined, the module calls event_route[evapi:connection-closed] when
a client connection is closed.
...
event_route[evapi:connection-closed] {
xlog("connection closed by $evapi(srcaddr):$evapi(srcport)\n");
}
...
5.3. evapi:message-received
If defined, the module calls event_route[evapi:message-received] when a
message is received from a client.
...
event_route[evapi:message-received] {
xlog("received [$evapi(msg)] from $evapi(srcaddr):$evapi(srcport)\n");
}
...
6. Exported pseudo-variables
* $evapi(srcaddr) - source ip
* $evapi(srcport) - source port
* $evapi(msg) - received event message
* $evapi(conidx) - internal connection index
Exported pseudo-variables are documented at
http://www.kamailio.org/wiki/.
