1. Overview

   This module provides a non-db connector to interact with MongoDB NoSQL
   server from configuration file. You can read more about MongoDB at
   http://www.mongodb.org.

   It can connect to many MongoDB servers and store the results in
   different containers.

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:
     * none.

2.2. External Libraries or Applications

   The following libraries or applications must be installed before
   running Kamailio with this module loaded:
     * mongo-c-driver - available at
       https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-c-driver
       Note: if you use tls module, use at least mongo-c-driver v1.3.5 and
       compile the library by configuring it without automatic init and
       cleanup (you have to run: './configure
       --disable-automatic-init-and-cleanup') -- this option is planned to
       be removed in future versions. An alternative for v1.3.5 could be
       the patch from:
       https://github.com/miconda/mongo-c-driver/commit/51d95009de39eaeca4
       8491682a5ffec4f83cde55

3. Parameters

   3.1. server (str)

3.1. server (str)

   Specify the details to connect to MongoDB server. It takes a list of
   attribute=value separated by semicolon, the attributes can be name and
   uri. Name is a generic identifier to be used with module functions. The
   uri parameter must be a valid MongoDB database connection string.

   You can set this parameter many times, in case you want to connect to
   many MongoDB servers, just give different attributes and use the
   specific server name when querying the MongoDB instance.

   Default value is NULL.

   Example 1.1. Set server parameter
...
modparam("ndb_mongodb", "server", "name=mgs1;uri='mongodb://localhost/kamailio'"
)
modparam("ndb_mongodb", "server", "name=mgs2;uri='mongodb://127.0.0.2/kamailio'"
)
...

4. Functions

   4.1. mongodb_cmd(srvname, dbname, cname, command, replyid)
   4.2. mongodb_cmd_simple(srvname, dbname, cname, command, replyid)
   4.3. mongodb_find(srvname, dbname, cname, command, replyid)
   4.4. mongodb_find_one(srvname, dbname, cname, command, replyid)
   4.5. mongodb_next(replyid)
   4.6. mongodb_free(replyid)

4.1.  mongodb_cmd(srvname, dbname, cname, command, replyid)

   Send a valid command to MongoDB server identified by srvname. The reply
   will be stored in a local container identified by replyid. All the
   parameters can be strings with pseudo-variables that are evaluated at
   runtime.

   The reply can be accessed via pseudo-variable $mongodb(key). The key
   can be: type - type of the reply; value - the value in JSON format
   returned by MongoDB server; info - in case of error from MongoDB, it
   will contain an info message.

   The result can contain many documents, see mongodb_next() function for
   more details.

   Meaning of the parameters:
     * srvname - MongoDB server name as given via 'server' parameter.
     * dbname - MongoDB database name.
     * cname - MongodDB collection (table) name.
     * command - valid MongoDB command given as JSON string.
     * replyid - the name of the container to store the response.

   The function can be used from ANY_ROUTE.

   Example 1.2. mongodb_cmd usage
...
if(mongodb_cmd("mgs1", "kamailio", "acc", "{ \"collStats\": \"acc\" }", "mgr1"))
 {
        xlog("response from mongodb is [[$mongodb(mgr1=>value)]]\n");
}
...

4.2.  mongodb_cmd_simple(srvname, dbname, cname, command, replyid)

   Send a valid command to MongoDB server identified by srvname. The reply
   will be stored in a local container identified by replyid. All the
   parameters can be strings with pseudo-variables that are evaluated at
   runtime.

   The reply can be accessed via pseudo-variable $mongodb(key). The key
   can be: type - type of the reply; value - the value in JSON format
   returned by MongoDB server; info - in case of error from MongoDB, it
   will contain an info message.

   This function should be used when the response has only one document.

   See mongodb_cmd() for the meaning of the parameters.

   The function can be used from ANY_ROUTE.

   Example 1.3. mongodb_cmd_simple usage
...
if(mongodb_cmd_simple("mgs1", "kamailio", "acc", "{ \"collStats\": \"acc\" }", "
mgr1")) {
        xlog("response from mongodb is [[$mongodb(mgr1=>value)]]\n");
}
...

4.3.  mongodb_find(srvname, dbname, cname, command, replyid)

   Send a find command to MongoDB server identified by srvname. The reply
   will be stored in a local container identified by replyid. All the
   parameters can be strings with pseudo-variables that are evaluated at
   runtime.

   The reply can be accessed via pseudo-variable $mongodb(key). The key
   can be: type - type of the reply; value - the value in JSON format
   returned by MongoDB server; info - in case of error from MongoDB, it
   will contain an info message.

   This function is useful for querying collections and accessing the
   results.

   See mongodb_cmd() for the meaning of the parameters, with the remark
   that command has to be a valid filter JSON document, like for find()
   command in mongoc command line client tool.

   The function can be used from ANY_ROUTE.

   Example 1.4. mongodb_find usage
...
if(mongodb_find("mgs1", "kamailio", "acc", "{ \"src_user\" : \"111\" }", "mgr1")
) {
        xlog("response from mongodb is [[$mongodb(mgr1=>value)]]\n");
}
...

4.4.  mongodb_find_one(srvname, dbname, cname, command, replyid)

   Similar to mongodb_find(...), but it stops searching after first match,
   returning the result with one object - faster when expecting to have a
   single match. Parameters and behaviour are the same as for
   mongodb_find(...).

   The function can be used from ANY_ROUTE.

   Example 1.5. mongodb_find_one usage
...
if(mongodb_find_one("mgs1", "kamailio", "subscriber", "{ \"username\" : \"111\"
}", "mgr1")) {
        xlog("response from mongodb is [[$mongodb(mgr1=>value)]]\n");
}
...

4.5.  mongodb_next(replyid)

   Moves to next document in a MongoDB reply. This function can be used
   after a succesful mongodb_cmd() or mongodb_find(). It returns true if
   there is a shift to document. The current document becomes available
   via $mongodb(key) variable.

   Example 1.6. mongodb_next usage
...
if(mongodb_find("mgs1", "kamailio", "acc", "{ \"src_user\" : \"111\" }", "mgr1")
) {
    xlog("first response from mongodb is [[$mongodb(mgr1=>value)]]\n");
    while(mongodb_next("mgr1") ){
        xlog("next response from mongodb is [[$mongodb(mgr1=>value)]]\n");
    }
}
mongodb_free("mgr1");
...

4.6.  mongodb_free(replyid)

   Frees data in a previous reply from memory. After this function call,
   accessing to a freed replyid returns null value.

   It is not really necessary to free a reply to use it again in a new
   mongodb_cmd function, being automatically freed on next command
   execution, but for freeing used resources (e.g., memory), it is
   recommended to do it.

   Example 1.7. mongodb_free usage
...
if(mongodb_cmd_simple("mgs1", "kamailio", "acc", "{ \"collStats\": \"acc\" }", "
mgr1")) {
        xlog("response from mongodb is [[$mongodb(mgr1=>value)]]\n");
}
mongodb_free("mgr1");
...
