Re: [SR-Users] Tips on picking random element from a list

From the docs: Returns a random value from the [0 - 2^31) range.

Hello, what about just using this PV: https://kamailio.org/docs/modules/5.5.x/modules/cfgutils.html#idm438 Cheers, Henning -- Henning Westerholt – https://skalatan.de/blog/ Kamailio services – https://gilawa.com *From:* sr-users <sr-users-bounces(a)lists.kamailio.org> *On Behalf Of *Joel Serrano *Sent:* Tuesday, May 3, 2022 6:20 PM *To:* Kamailio (SER) - Users Mailing List <sr-users(a)lists.kamailio.org> *Subject:* [SR-Users] Tips on picking random element from a list Hi Everyone, I have to implement a flow where outbound calls get their caller-id set with a random number from a pool. I've been looking around and, as most of the time, there are tons of ways to implement something like this... This is a simple implementation, the number pool is fixed and will not change (so I could have it hard-coded in the config if required). My initial approach was: 1- Try to keep it simple, with no dependencies, and all done in the config script. 2- If #1 is "ugly", then I'd probably go with some inline code using python/lua/etc 3- If #2 is "ugly", then I'd go with having the info in a DB and just run a query I think #2 and #3 might be overkill for something so "simple" but I haven't had to work too much with randomness in Kamailio, so any tips/suggestions on where to store the number list and how to pick one randomly would be awesome! Thanks!! Joel.
