This module collects the core pseudo-variables that can be used in configuration file. They are listed in Dokuwiki: http://www.kamailio.org/dokuwiki/, in Pseudo-Variables section

2. Dependencies

2.1. Kamailio Modules

The following modules must be loaded before this module:

No dependencies on other Kamailio modules.

2.2. External Libraries or Applications

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

None.

3. Parameters

3.1. `shvset` (string)

Set the value of a shared variable ($shv(name)). The parameter can be set many times.

The value of the parameter has the format: _name_ '=' _type_ ':' _value_

_name_: shared variable name
_type_: type of the value
- “i”: integer value
- “s”: string value
_value_: value to be set

Default value is “NULL”.

Example 1.1. shvset parameter usage

...
modparam("pv", "shvset", "debug=i:1")
modparam("pv", "shvset", "pstngw=s:sip:10.10.10.10")
...

3.2. `varset` (string)

Set the value of a script variable ($var(name)). The parameter can be set many times.

The value of the parameter has the format: _name_ '=' _type_ ':' _value_

_name_: shared variable name
_type_: type of the value
- “i”: integer value
- “s”: string value
_value_: value to be set

Default value is “NULL”.

Example 1.2. varset parameter usage

...
modparam("pv", "varset", "init=i:1")
modparam("pv", "varset", "gw=s:sip:11.11.11.11;transport=tcp")
...

3.3. `avp_aliases` (string)

Define aliases for PV AVP names.

Default value is NULL.

Example 1.3. avp_aliases parameter usage

...
modparam("pv","avp_aliases","email=s:email_addr;tmp=i:100")
...

4. Functions

4.1. `pv_isset(pvar)`

Return true if a PV value is different than 'null'.

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

pvar - pvar identifier.

This function can be used from ANY_ROUTE.

Example 1.4. pv_isset usage

...
if(pv_isset("$avp("s:x")"))
{
    ...
}
...

4.2. `pv_unset(pvar)`

Unset the value of the PV (e.g., delete AVP, set to null).

Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

pvar - pvar identifier.

This function can be used from ANY_ROUTE.

Example 1.5. pv_unset usage

...
pv_unset("$avp("s:x")");
...

4.3. `is_int(pvar)`

Function checks if pvar argument contains integer value and returns 1 if it does and -1 otherwise.

Function can be used from all kinds of routes.

Example 1.6. is_int() usage

...
if (is_int("$var(foo)")) {
    xlog("L_INFO", "variable foo contains integer value\n");
}
...

5. MI Commands

5.1. `shv_set`

Set the value of a shared variable ($shv(name)).

Parameters:

_name_: shared variable name
_type_: type of the value
- “int”: integer value
- “str”: string value
_value_: value to be set

MI FIFO Command Format:

		:shv_set:_reply_fifo_file_
		_name_
		_type_
		_value_
		_empty_line_

Example 1.7. shv_set usage

...
$ kamctl fifo shv_set debug int 0
...

5.2. `shv_get`

Get the value of a shared variable ($shv(name)).

Parameters:

_name_: shared variable name. If this parameter is missing, all shared variables are returned.

MI FIFO Command Format:

		:shv_get:_reply_fifo_file_
		_name_
		_empty_line_

Example 1.8. shv_get usage

...
$ kamctl fifo shv_get debug
$ kamctl fifo shv_get
...
