Hello,
I am using fork.cfg file and I want to call a shell script (which has curl commands
extracting value from database and returns the value) and use the value in the fork.cfg.
How can I do it?
Appreciate your help!
Thanksm

New subject: Question regarding calling a shell script from kamailio
You can do this using the functions in the exec module:
https://kamailio.org/docs/modules/5.0.x/modules/exec.html
However, this solution is naive and performs poorly given Kamailio's concurrency
model.
Sometimes, calling external scripts is unavoidable. But you mention a curl call. Perhaps
you should explore the asynchronous HTTP client module instead, as it would allow you to
do the same thing from within Kamailio route script directly, but without an unwieldy Rube
Goldberg machine. :-)

New subject: Question regarding calling a shell script from kamailio
Hello,
Resending as I didn't get any reply yet. I tried to use exec_msg to call a external
script but that is not working as expected (used it under request_route function as
suggested). Also exec_msg doesn't store any return value so not sure if this will
help. Like mentioned in my previous email, looking for calling a external shell script and
use the return value in fork.cfg file. I need help with this asap. Appreciate some help!
Thanks a lot!

Hello,
your first email was answered:
- https://lists.kamailio.org/pipermail/sr-users/2017-June/097640.html
The exec_avp() should allow you to get back values in kamailio.cfg, iirc.
Cheers,
