This module provides a simple way for handling different events, triggered through the OpenSIPS Event Interface, directly from the OpenSIPS script. For a specific event, a special route (event_route) has to be declared in the script, and should contain the code that handles the event. The route is executed by the module when the corresponding event is raised by the OpenSIPS Event Interface.Since version 1.12, the way an event is handlend (sync/async) should be specified from the configuration script with the desired keyword following the name of the event (event_route[e, sync]).
In order to retrieve the parameters of an event, the fetch_event_params(pvar_list) function is used. It receives a single parameter, that consists of a list of parameters names (optional) and the pseudo-variable where the values will be stored. The grammar is:
[ param_name= ] pvar [; [ param_name= ] pvar ]*
Example:
fetch_event_params("$avp(first_param)");
fetch_event_params("ip=$avp(pike_ip)");
fetch_event_params("source=$avp(src);destination=$avp(dst)");
If the name of the parameter is not specified, the avp will be populated according to the order of the parameters, as exported by the event. The following code will populate the $avp(first) avp with the first parameter of the event, $avp(second) with the second one and so on.
fetch_event_params("$avp(first);$avp(second);$avp(third)");
NOTE: An event may be triggered within a different event, leading to nested processing. This function will retrieve the parameters of the currently processed event.
The event name can contain any non-quoted string character, but it is recommended to follow the syntax: E_MODULE_NAME_EXTRA_NAME
In order to handle the E_PIKE_BLOCKED event, the following snippet can be used:
Example 1.1. EVENT_ROUTE usage
event_route[E_PIKE_BLOCKED] {
fetch_event_params("ip=$avp(pike-ip)");
xlog("IP $avp(pike-ip) has been blocked\n");
}
As the OpenSIPS Event Interface requires, the event_route module uses a specific socket syntax:
'route:' event_name
Example:
route:E_PIKE_BLOCKED
The following modules must be loaded before this module:
No dependencies on other OpenSIPS modules.
Retrieves the parameters of the event. For more information, please read Section 1.2, “ROUTE events parameters”.
The the pseudo variables list as described in Section 1.2, “ROUTE events parameters”.
This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE and EVENT_ROUTE.
Example 1.2. fetch_event_params usage
...
fetch_event_params("$avp(first_param)"); # fetch the first parameter of an event
fetch_event_params("ip=$avp(pike_ip)"); # fetch the ip parameter
fetch_event_params("source=$avp(src);destination=$avp(dst)"); # fetch the source and destination parameters

2.1. | Can I declare more routes for handling the same event? |
No, only a single event_route can be used for a particular event. | |
