[OpenSIPS-Users] FIFO from scripts

[Arnold Vriezekolk NETZOZEKER B.V.]

Hi Andreas,

First off, wouldn't you use the fr_timer and fr_inv_timer for this purpose? [1]
Or maybe the default_timeout from the dialog module? [2]

Anyway, the way i use the fifo from my scripts is via de mi_datagram module. [3]
You can just make an udp socket that you can connect to from your script and execute commands / receive replies from it. As explained in [4]

Best Regards,
Arnold Vriezekolk
