Excellent enhancements!
Is there any hope to have a feature developed where the authentication
user, password, and domain can be supplied directly to the
save()/lookup() function via script instead of using either a database
structure of a certain schema as a persistence layer or doing it purely
in memory?
This is mainly desired when implementing a registrar that uses database
persistence but obtains its information from an outside database that
requires some sort of middleware or API to access and cannot be tailored
to work with the schema requirements of auth_db/usrloc.

Hello,
in the last time several enhancements were added to registrar module to
help in dealing with user location records. This correlated with the new
modue pv shall give lot of control over the destination set for calls.
To get the latest devel version, check out the latest svn - svn co
https://openser.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/openser/trunk kamailio
The news in registrar module are:
- ability to unregister all contacts for a SIP addres - there is a new
function: unregister(table, uri)
- ability to store and maintain single contact per user - the save()
function accepts a new value for flags parameter (0x04) to restrict to
one single record in location table
- ability to access the attributes of all contacts for a user - there
are two new functions: reg_fetch_contacts(table, uri, profile) and
reg_free_contacts(profile) to make available/release the contacts for a
SIP uri. After fetching the contacts, the attributes can be accessed via
pseudo variable $ulc(profile=>attr)
For more details see the README:
http://www.kamailio.org/docs/modules/devel/registrar.html
Here are couple of use cases:
1) only one contact per user
save("location", "0x04");
Note that if you have couple of phones registering for same user, the
one that sent last REGISTER message will be the only ringing.
2) check if a user is calling from a registered device and if not, deny
the call
if(!reg_fetch_contacts("location", "$fu", "caller"))
{
sl_send_reply("403", "Please register first");
exit;
}
$var(i) = 0;
$var(found) = 0;
$var(contact) = $(ct{nameaddr.uri});
while($var(found) == 0 && $var(i) < $(ulc(caller=>count)))
{
$if($var(contact)==$(ulc(caller=>addr)[$var(i)]))
$var(found) = 1;
else
$var(i) = $var(i) + 1;
}
if($var(found) == 0)
{
sl_send_reply("403", "Please register first");
exit;
}
Testing and feedback is very much appreciated.
For the future:
- unregister() to get a $ulc(...) variable as parameter to unregister a specific contact
- drop a branch via pv module
Cheers,
Daniel
