Chapter 1. Admin Guide

1.1. Overview

The module implements SIP based operations over the messages processed by OpenSIPS. SIP is a text based protocol and the module provides a large set of very useful functions to manipulate the message at SIP level, e.g., inserting new headers or deleting them, check for method type, etc.

1.2. Dependencies

1.2.1. OpenSIPS Modules

The following modules must be loaded before this module:

  • No dependencies on other OpenSIPS modules.

1.2.2. External Libraries or Applications

The following libraries or applications must be installed before running OpenSIPS with this module loaded:

  • None.

1.3. Exported Functions

1.3.1.  append_to_reply(txt)

Append 'txt' as header to all replies that will be generated by OpenSIPS for this request.

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • txt (string) - SIP header field, value and CRLF marker.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and ERROR_ROUTE.

Example 1.1. append_to_reply usage

...
append_to_reply("Foo: bar\r\n");
append_to_reply("Foo: $rm at $Ts\r\n");
...

1.3.2.  append_hf(txt[, hdr_anchor])

Appends 'txt' as header after the last header field. If 'hdr_anchor' is given, 'txt' will be appended after the first occurrence of 'hdr_anchor' instead.

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • txt (string) - Header field to be appended.

  • hdr_anchor (string, optional) - Header name after which the 'txt' is appended.

Note: Headers which are added in main route cannot be removed in further routes (e.g. failure routes). So, the idea is not to add there any headers that you might want to remove later. To add headers temporarily, use the branch route because the changes you do there are per-branch.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, ONREPLY_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.2. append_hf usage

...
append_hf("P-hint: VOICEMAIL\r\n");
append_hf("From-username: $fU\r\n");
append_hf("From-username: $fU\r\n", "Call-ID");
...

1.3.3.  insert_hf(txt)

Inserts 'txt' as header before the first header field.

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • txt (string) - Header field to be inserted.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, ONREPLY_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.3. insert_hf usage

...
insert_hf("P-hint: VOICEMAIL\r\n");
insert_hf("To-username: $tU\r\n");
...

1.3.4.  insert_hf(txt, hdr)

Inserts 'txt' as header before first 'hdr' header field.

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • txt (string) - Header field to be inserted.

  • hdr (string, optional) - Header name before which the 'txt' is inserted.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, ONREPLY_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.4. insert_hf usage

...
insert_hf("P-hint: VOICEMAIL\r\n", "Call-ID");
insert_hf("To-username: $tU\r\n", "Call-ID");
...

1.3.5.  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).

  • suffix - string (usually at least line terminator).

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE and BRANCH_ROUTE.

Example 1.5. append_urihf usage

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

1.3.6.  is_present_hf(hf_name)

Return true if a header field is present in message.

Note

The function is also able to distinguish the compact names. For exmaple From will match with f

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • hf_name (string) - Header field name (long or compact form).

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, ONREPLY_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.6. is_present_hf usage

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

1.3.7.  append_time()

Adds a time header to the reply of the request. You must use it before functions that are likely to send a reply, e.g., save() from 'registrar' module. Header format is: Date: %a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S GMT, with the legend:

  • %a abbreviated week of day name (locale)

  • %d day of month as decimal number

  • %b abbreviated month name (locale)

  • %Y year with century

  • %H hour

  • %M minutes

  • %S seconds

Return true if a header was successfully appended.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.7. append_time usage

...
append_time();
...

1.3.8.  is_method(name)

Check if the method of the message matches the name. If name is a known method (invite, cancel, ack, bye, options, info, update, register, message, subscribe, notify, refer, prack), the function performs method ID testing (integer comparison) instead of ignore case string comparison.

The 'name' can be a list of methods in the form of 'method1|method2|...'. In this case, the function returns true if the SIP message's method is one from the list. IMPORTANT NOTE: in the list must be only methods defined in OpenSIPS with ID (invite, cancel, ack, bye, options, info, update, register, message, subscribe, notify, refer, prack, publish; for more see: https://www.iana.org/assignments/sip-parameters).

If used for replies, the function tests the value of method field from CSeq header.

...

1.3.23.  get_updated_body_part( [mime], variable)

This function returns into a variable the regenerated body part, meaning the body part updated with all the changes done so far by OpenSIPS. This is helpful if you want to do a sequance of operations over the body parts and some operations require to have all the previous changes applied (like first doing some codec related changes and later to rtpengine insertion).

NOTE: the actual SIP message will not be affected by this operation!

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • mime (string) - the mime string for the body to be regenerated and returned. If missing, the whole body (with all its parts) will be regenerated.

  • variable - a variable to be used to return the regenerated body part (as text).

	exit;
...

1.3.24.  sipmsg_validate([flags[, result_pvar]])

The function returns true if the SIP message is properly built according to SIP RFC3261. It verifies if the mandatory headers for each request/reply and can also check the format of the headers body.

The flags parameter received is optional and can be composed with the following values:

  • 's' - checks the integrity of the SDP body, if it exists

  • 'h' - checks the format and integrity of each header body.

  • 'm' - don't check the Max-Forwards header.

  • 'r' - checks the R-URI and whether the domain contains valid characters.

  • 'f' - checks the URI of the 'From' field and whether the domain contains valid characters.

  • 't' - checks the URI of the 'To' field and whether the domain contains valid characters.

  • 'c' - checks the URI of the 'Contact' field.

The result_pvar parameter sets resulting pvar with text error reason in case of negative result ( easy for logging or propagating the rejection reason back to the bogus UA )

This function can return the following codes:

  • 1 - the message is RFC3261 compliant and has been successfully validated.

  • -1 - No SIP message

  • -2 - Header Parsing error

Example 1.35. codec_move_down usage

...
/*
  This example will move speex with 8000 codec to the back of the list,
  then it will erase GSM with 8000 clock, and then it will bring all
  speex codecs to the front of the list. Speex/8000 will be behind any
  other speex.

1.3.34.  change_reply_status(code, reason)

Intercept a SIP reply (in any onreply_route) and change its status code and reason phrase prior to propogating it.

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • code (int) - Status code.

  • reason (string) - Reason phrase.

This function can be used from ONREPLY_ROUTE.

Example 1.36. change_reply_status usage

    }
}
...
	    

1.3.35.  stream_exists(regexp[,regexp2])

This function can be used to verify if a stream exists inside an sdp payload. It will search for the stream inside all sdp sessions. If it is found anywhere it will return TRUE otherwise it will return FALSE.

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • regexp - a POSIX regular expression to match the stream media name.

  • regexp2 - an optional POSIX regular expression to match the stream transport name.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, ONREPLY_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.37. stream_exists usage

...
# check for FAX
stream_exists("image");
...
stream_exists("audio","SAVP");
...

1.3.36.  stream_delete(regexp[,regexp2])

This function can be used to delete a whole stream from inside an sdp payload. It will search for the stream inside all sdp sessions. If it is found anywhere it will be deleted along with all attributes Returns TRUE if any deletion occurred otherwise it will return FALSE.

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • regexp - a POSIX regular expression to match the stream media name.

  • regexp2 - an optional POSIX regular expression to match the stream transport name.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, ONREPLY_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.38. stream_delete usage

...
# prevent usage of video
stream_delete("video");
...

1.3.37.  list_hdr_has_option(hdr_name, option)

Checks and returns true if the given option/token is listed in the body of the given header. The header must have its body formated as a CSV list of tokens/option (like the Supported, Require, Content-Dispsition headers) body format

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • hdr_name (string) - the name of the header to be checked. Note that all instances of that header will be checked (if the header has multiple instances in the SIP message). Any kind of header name is supported - RFC3261 standard, RFC extensions or custom names.

  • opt (string) - the option/tolen to be searched for.

The function returns true if the options was found listed in one of the header instances. If no header was found, if the option was not found or if there was a parsing or runtime error, false will be returned.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, ONREPLY_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.39. list_hdr_has_option usage

...
# check if 100rel is advertised
if (list_hdr_has_option("Supported", "100rel"))
	xlog("100rel option found\n");
...

1.3.38.  list_hdr_add_option(hdr_name, option)

Add a new option/token at the end of the list in the body of the given header. The header must have its body formated as a CSV list of tokens/option (like the Supported, Require, Content-Disposition headers) body format

Multiple add / remove operations can be performed over the same header.

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • hdr_name (string) - the name of the header where the option has to be added. If multiple instances of that header are present in the SIP message, the add will be performed on the first instance. Any kind of header name is supported - RFC3261 standard, RFC extensions or custom names.

  • opt (string) - the option/token to be added to the CSV list. Note there is not verification for duplicated (if the newly added option is not already present in the header).

The function returns true if the options was successfully added to the listed of the given header. If no header was found or if there was a parsing or runtime error, false will be returned.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, ONREPLY_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.40. list_hdr_add_option usage

...
# add 100rel for advertising
if (!list_hdr_has_option("Supported", "100rel"))
    list_hdr_add_option("Supported", "100rel");

1.3.39.  list_hdr_remove_option(hdr_name, option)

Removes an option/token from the list inside the body of the given header. The header must have its body formated as a CSV list of tokens/option (like the Supported, Require, Content-Dispsition headers) body format

Multiple add / remove operations can be performed over the same header.

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • hdr_name (string) - the name of the header where the option has to be removed from. If the option is duplicated in the same header, only the last one will be removed. If multiple instances of that header are present in the SIP message, the remove will be performed on all instance instance. Any kind of header name is supported - RFC3261 standard, RFC extensions or custom names.

  • opt (string) - the option/token to be removed from the CSV list. Note that if this the only option in the header, the whole header will be removed.

The function returns true if the options was successfully removed from at least one heaer instance. If no header was found or if the token was not found or if there was a parsing or runtime error, false will be returned.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, ONREPLY_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.41. list_hdr_remove_option usage

...
# add 100rel for advertising
if (list_hdr_has_option("Supported", "100rel"))
    list_hdr_remove_option("Supported", "100rel");
list_hdr_add_option("Supported", "optionX");

1.3.40.  get_glob_headers_values(hdr_name_glob, hdr_names_avp,hdr_vals_avp)

Populates the hdr_names_avp and hdr_vals_avp AVPs with all the header names and values that match the hdr_name_glob pattern.

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

  • hdr_name_glob (string) - the glob pattern for matching the header names

  • hdr_names_avp (var) - the AVP which will get populated with all the header names that match the glob pattern

  • hdr_vals_avp (var) - the AVP which will get populated with all the header values corresponding to the header names that match the glob pattern

The function returns true if at least 1 header was found that matches the glob pattern and false if no match is found.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, ONREPLY_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.42. get_glob_headers_values usage

...
       if (get_glob_headers_values("X-*",$avp(names),$avp(values))) {
           xlog("All X- names are $(avp(names)[*]) and X- vals are $(avp(values)[*])\n");
       }
...

1.4. Known Limitations

Search functions are applied to the current message so modifications made to the sdp will be visible to the codec_exists functions( e.g. after calling codec_delete("speex") , codec_exists("speex") will return false ).
