AVPs are a powerful tool for implementing services/preferences per user/domain. Now they are usable directly from configuration script. Functions for interfacing DB resources (loading/storing/removing), functions for swapping information between AVPs and SIP messages, function for testing/checking the value of an AVP.
AVPs are persistent per SIP transaction, being available in "route", "branch_route" and "failure_route". To make them available in "onreply_route" armed via TM module, set "onreply_avp_mode" parameter of TM module (note that in the default "onreply_route", the AVPs of the transaction are not available).
An up-to-date tutorial providing more information (detailed explanations and commented examples) can be found on Voice Sistem documentation web page at http://voice-system.ro/docs/avpops .
The following modules must be loaded before this module:
Optionally a database module
The format of the parameters specifying an AVP in functions exported by this module is: $avp(avp_flags:avp_name) or $avp(avp_alias).
avp_flags = type_flags [script_flags]; type_flags = 'I' | 'i' | 'S' | 's'; script_flags = 0..255
'I' or 'i' means that the type of avp name is integer (ID)
'S' or 's' means that the type of avp name is string
The type flag is mandatory.
script_flags must be an 8 bit unsigned number, therefore can be set up to 8 flags. If no script flag is provided, the name will match all AVPs, regardless they have or not a script flag set (preserves the compatibility with the old naming schema).
avp_name = string | integer
string - might be any alphanumeric string, wich contain following characters: [a-z] [A-Z] [0-9] '_'
integer - might be an unsigned integer, greater than zero, up to 2^16-1
avp_alias = string
string - might be any alphanumeric string, wich contain following characters: [a-z] [A-Z] [0-9] '_'
Example 1.1. AVP naming examples
...
$avp(i:11) - the AVP identified by integer 11
$avp(s:foo) - the AVP identified by the string 'foo'
$avp(bar) - the AVP identified by the AVP alias 'bar'
$avp(i3:123) - the AVP identified by the integer 123 which has script flags 1
and 2 set
...
DB URL for database connection.
This parameter is optional, it's default value being NULL.
Example 1.2. Set db_url parameter
...
modparam("avpops","db_url","mysql://user:passwd@host/database")
...
DB table to be used.
This parameter is optional, it's default value being NULL. But if you specify a db_url, you need also setup this parameter.
If the domain part of the an URI should be used for identifying an AVP in DB operations.
Default value is 0 (no).
Name of column containing the uuid (unique user id).
Default value is “uuid”.
Name of column containing the username.
Default value is “username”.
Name of column containing the domain name.
Default value is “domain”.
Name of column containing the attribute name (AVP name).
Default value is “attribute”.
Example 1.8. Set attribute_column parameter
...
modparam("avpops","attribute_column","attribute")
...
Name of column containing the AVP value.
Default value is “value”.
Name of integer column containing the AVP type.
Default value is “type”.
Possible column values are
0 - AVP with string name and string value
1 - AVP with string name and integer value
2 - AVP with integer name and string value
3 - AVP with integer name and integer value
Definition of a DB scheme to be used for non-standard access to Database information.
Definition of a DB scheme. Scheme syntax is:
db_scheme = name':'element[';'element]*
element =
'uuid_col='string
'username_col='string
'domain_col='string
'value_col='string
'value_type='('integer'|'string')
'table='string
Default value is “NULL”.
Example 1.11. Set db_scheme parameter
...
modparam("avpops","db_scheme",
"scheme1:table=subscriber;uuid_col=uuid;value_col=first_name")
...
Loads from DB into memory the AVPs corresponding to the given source. If given, it sets the script flags for loaded AVPs. It returns true if it loaded some values in AVPs, false otherwise (db error, no avp loaded ...).
Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
source - what info is used for identifying the AVPs. Parameter syntax:
source = (pvar|str_value) ['/'('username'|'domain'|'uri'|'uuid')])
pvar = any pseudo variable defined in Kamailio. If the pvar is $ru (request uri), $fu (from uri), $tu (to uri) or $ou (original uri), then the implicit flag is 'uri'. Otherwise, the implicit flag is 'uuid'.
name - which AVPs will be loaded from DB into memory. Parameter syntax is:
name = avp_spec['/'(table_name|'$'db_scheme)]
avp_spec = matching_flags|$avp(avp_name)|$avp(avp_alias)
matching_flags = 'a' | 'A' | 'i' | 'I' | 's' | 'S' [script_flags]
'a' or 'A' means matching any of AVP name types ('i' and 's') (NOTE: matching_flags cannot be used with $db_scheme because the name of AVP to save in cannot be specified), the rest have the meaning descriped in 'AVP naming format' chapter.
This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE, LOCAL_ROUTE and ONREPLY_ROUTE.
Example 1.12. avp_db_load usage
...
avp_db_load("$fu","$(i:678)");
avp_db_load("$ru/domain","i:/domain_preferences");
avp_db_load("$uuid","$avp(s:404fwd)/fwd_table");
avp_db_load("$ru","$avp(i1:123)/$some_scheme");
...
Stores to DB the AVPs corresponding to the given source.
The meaning and usage of the parameters are identical as for avp_db_load(source,name) function. Please refer to its description.
This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE, LOCAL_ROUTE and ONREPLY_ROUTE.
Example 1.13. avp_db_store usage
...
avp_db_store("$tu","$avp(i:678)");
avp_db_store("$ru/username","$avp(email)");
...
Deletes from DB the AVPs corresponding to the given source.
The meaning and usage of the parameters are identical as for avp_db_load(source,name) function. Please refer to its description.
This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE, LOCAL_ROUTE and ONREPLY_ROUTE.
Example 1.14. avp_db_delete usage
...
avp_db_delete("$tu","$avp(i:678)");
avp_db_delete("$ru/username","$avp(email)");
avp_db_delete("$uuid","$avp(s:404fwd)/fwd_table");
...
Make a database query and store the result in AVPs.
The meaning and usage of the parameters:
query - must be a valid SQL query. The parameter can contain pseudo-variables.
You must escape any pseudo-variables manually to prevent SQL injection attacks. You can use the existing transformations escape.common and unescape.common to escape and unescape the content of any pseudo-variable. Failing to escape the variables used in the query makes you vulnerable to SQL injection, e.g. make it possible for an outside attacker to alter your database content.
dest - a list with AVP names where to store the result. The format is “$avp(name1);$avp(name2);...”. If this parameter is ommited, the result is stored in “$avp(i:1);$avp(i:2);...”. If the result gives many rows, then multiple AVPs with corresponding name will be added. The value type of the AVP (string or integer) will be derived from the type of the columns. Please note that only this two datatypes are supported, so its not possible for example to return floating point or big integer values this way.
The function delivers the following return-codes:
-1 - An error occured while querying the database (e.g. wrong SQL or database error)
1 - Query was successful
-2 - Query was successful, but no rows where returned.
This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE, LOCAL_ROUTE and ONREPLY_ROUTE.
Example 1.15. avp_db_query usage

"$avp(i:678);$avp(i:679)");
avp_db_query("delete from subscriber");
...
Deletes from memory the AVPs with name or, if empty, all AVPs.
Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
name - which AVPs will be deleted from memory. Parameter syntax is:
name = (matching_flags|avp_name|avp_alias)['/'flag]
matching_flags = please refer to avp_db_load() function
flag = 'g'|'G'
This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE, LOCAL_ROUTE and ONREPLY_ROUTE.
Example 1.16. avp_delete usage

$ru '['/'('username'|'domain')] - write the AVP in the request URI or in username/domain part of it
$du - write the AVP in 'dst_uri' field
$br - write the AVP directly as a new branch (does not affect RURI)
name - which AVP(s)/pseudo-variable should be pushed into the SIP message. Parameter syntax is:
name = ( avp_name | avp_alias | pvar_name )['/'flags]

...
NOTE: since Kamailio 1.3.0 the function has been moved to core and it is an alias to pv_printf().
Prints the formatted string 'format' in the AVP 'dest'. The 'format' parameter can include any pseudo-variable defined in Kamailio. The list with all pseudo-variables in Kamailio can be found at: http://kamailio.org/dokuwiki/.
Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
dest - in which AVP should be stored the result. Parameter syntax is:
name = ( avp_name | avp_alias )
format - the formatted string to be printed in 'dest' AVP.
This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE, LOCAL_ROUTE and ONREPLY_ROUTE.

avp_printf("$avp(i:20)", "This is a $rm request with call-id $hdr(call-id)");
...
Perl/sed-like subst applied to AVPs having string value.
Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
avps - source AVP, destination AVP and flags. Parameter syntax is:
avps = src_avp [ '/' dst_avp [ '/' flags ] ]
src_avp = ( avp_name | avp_alias )
dst_avp = ( avp_name | avp_alias ) - if dst_avp is missing then the value of src_avp will be replaced
flags = ( d | D | g | G ) -- (d, D - delete source avp; g, G - apply to all avps matching src_avp name)
subst - perl/sed-like reqular expression. Parameter syntax is:
subst = "/regexp/replacement/flags"
regexp - regular expression
replacement - replacement string, can include pseudo-variables and \1, ..., \9 for matching tokens, \0 for whole matching text
flags = 'g' | 'G' | 'i' | 'i' (g, G - replace all matching tokens; i, I - match ignore case)
This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE, LOCAL_ROUTE and ONREPLY_ROUTE.
Example 1.21. avp_subst usage
...
# if avp i:678 has a string value in e-mail format, replace the
# domain part with the value of domain part from R-URI
avp_subst("$avp(i:678)", "/(.*)@(.*)/\1@$rd/");
# if any avp i:678 has a string value in e-mail format, replace the
# domain part with the value of domain part from R-URI
# and place the result in avp i:679
avp_subst("$avp(i:678)/$avp(i:679)/g", "/(.*)@(.*)/\1@$rd/");
...
IMPORTANT NOTE: if the replacement string includes src_avp or dst_avp you will get something that you may not expect. In case you have many src_avp and you make the substitution to be applied to all of them, after the first src_avp is processed, it will be added in avp list and next processing will use it.
Different integer operations with avps.
Meaning of the parameters is as follows:
name - 'source_avp/destination_avp' - which AVP(s) should be processed and where to store the result. If 'destination_avp' is missing, same name as 'source_avp' is used to store the result.
Parameter syntax is:
name = ( source_avp[/destination_avp] )
source_avp = ( avp_name | avp_alias )
destination_avp = ( avp_name | avp_alias )
op_value - define the operation, the value and flags. Parameter syntax is:
op_value = operator '/' value ['/'flags]
operator = 'add' | 'sub' | 'mul' | 'div' | 'mod' | 'and' | 'or' | 'xor' | 'not'
value = pseudo-variable | fix_value
fix_value = 'i:'integer
