This modules provides offline message storage for the Open SIP Express Router. It stores received messages for an offline user and sends them when the user becomes online.
For each message, the modules stores "Request-URI" ("R-URI") only if it is a complete address of record ("username@hostname"), URI from "To" header, URI from "From" header, incoming time, expiration time, content type and body of the message. If "R-URI" is not an address of record (it might be the contact address for current SIP session) the URI from "To" header will be used as R-URI.
When the expiration time passed, the message is discarded from database. Expiration time is computed based on incoming time and one of the module's parameters.
Every time when a user registers with OpenSER, the module is looking in database for offline messages intended for that user. All of them will be sent to contact address provided in REGISTER request.
It may happen the SIP user to be registered but his SIP User Agent to have no support for MESSAGE request. In this case it should be used the "failure_route" to store the undelivered requests.
The following modules must be loaded before this module:
database module - mysql, dbtext or other module that implements the "db" interface and provides support for storing/receiving data to/from a database system.
TM--transaction module--is used to send SIP requests.
The following libraries or applications must be installed before running OpenSER with this module:
none.
registrar
(string)The SIP address used to inform users that destination of their message is not online and the message will be delivered next time when that user goes online. If the parameter is not set, the module will not send any notification. All requests intended for this SIP address will not be stored for lately delivery.
Default value is "NULL".
expire_time
(int)Expire time of stored messages - seconds. When this time passed, the message is silently discarded from database.
Default value is "259200 (72 hours = 3 days)".
check_time
(int)Timer interval to check if dumped messages are sent OK - seconds. The module keeps each request send by itself for a new online user and if the reply is 2xx then the message is deleted from database.
Default value is "30".
clean_period
(int)Number of "check_time" cycles when to check if there are expired messages in database.
Default value is "5".
use_contact
(int)Turns on/off the usage of the Contact address to send notification back to sender whose message is stored by MSILO.
Default value is "1 (0 = off, 1 = on)".
m_store(mode)
The method stores certain parts of the current SIP request (it should be called when the request type is MESSAGE and the destination user is offline or his UA does not support MESSAGE requests). If the user is registered with a UA which does not support MESSAGE requests you should not use mode="0" if you have changed the request uri with the contact address of user's UA.
Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
mode - specifies what to save as R-URI.
"0" - first check if new_uri is an address of record. If yes, then use it and store it as R-URI, otherwise look at R-URI and, if necessary, at URI from "To" header.
"1" - look first at R-URI and then at URI from "To" header.
"2" - look only at URI form "To" header.
m_dump()
The method sends stored messages for the SIP user that is going to register to his actual contact address. The method should be called when a REGISTER request is received and the "Expire" header has a value greater than zero.
Before running OpenSER with msilo, you have to setup the database table where the module will store the message. For that, if the table was not created by the installation script or you choose to install everything by yourself you can use the following SQL script (good for MySQL) as template. Database and table name can be set with module parameters so they can be changed, but the name of the columns must be as they are in the next SQL script.
Example 1-8. msilo sql script
... -- SQL script for MSILO module DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS msilo; -- create a database for storage CREATE DATABASE msilo; USE msilo; -- create the table CREATE TABLE silo( -- unique ID per message mid INTEGER NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, -- src address - From URI src_addr VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT "", -- dst address - To URI dst_addr VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT "", -- r-uri == username@domain (for compatibility with old version) r_uri VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT "", -- username username VARCHAR(64) NOT NULL DEFAULT "", -- domain domain VARCHAR(128) NOT NULL DEFAULT "", -- incoming time inc_time INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0, -- expiration time exp_time INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0, -- content type ctype VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL DEFAULT "text/plain", -- body of the message body BLOB NOT NULL DEFAULT "" ); ...
