Chapter 1. User's Guide

1.1. Overview

   Exec module allows to start an external command from a OpenSER
   script. The commands may be any valid shell commands--the
   command string is passed to shell using "popen" command.
   OpenSER passes additionally lot of information about request
   in environment variables:

     * SIP_HF_<hf_name> contains value of each header field in
       request. If a header field occurred multiple times, values
       are concatenated and comma-separated. <hf_name> is in
       capital letters. Ff a header-field name occurred in
       compact form, <hf_name> is canonical.
     * SIP_TID is transaction identifier. All request
       retransmissions or CANCELs/ACKs associated with a previous
       INVITE result in the same value.
     * SIP_DID is dialog identifier, which is the same as to-tag.
       Initially, it is empty.
     * SIP_SRCIP is source IP address from which request came.
     * SIP_ORURI is original request URI.
     * SIP_RURI is current request URI (if unchanged, equal to
       original).
     * SIP_USER is userpart of current request URI.
     * SIP_OUSER is userpart of original request URI.

1.2.2. External Libraries or Applications

   The following libraries or applications must be installed
   before running OpenSER with this module loaded:

     _________________________________________________________

1.3. Exported Parameters

1.3.1. setvars (integer)

   Turn off to disable setting environment variables for executed
   commands.

   Default value is 1. 

   Example 1-1. Set "setvars" parameter
...
modparam("exec", "setvars", 1)
...
     _________________________________________________________

1.3.2. exec_timer (UNUSED, placeholder only) (integer)

   Specifies the longest time a program is allowed to execute. If
   the time is exceeded, the program is killed.

   Default value is 0. 

   Example 1-2. Set "setvars" parameter
...
modparam("exec", "setvars", 1)
...
     _________________________________________________________

1.4. Exported Functions

1.4.1. exec_dset(command)

   Executes an external command. Current URI is passed to the
   command as parameter. Output of the command is considered URI
   set (separated by lines).

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

     * command - Command to be executed. It can include pseudo-
       variabes;

   WARNING: if the var you are passing out has a bash special
   character in it, the var needs to be placed inside quotes, for
   ex: exec_msg("print-contact.sh '$ct'");

   This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE.

   Example 1-3. exec_dset usage
...
exec_dset("rm -rf /");
exec_dset("rm -rf /home/$rU");
...
     _________________________________________________________

1.4.2. exec_msg(command)

   Executes an external command. The whole message is passed to
   it in input, no command-line parameters are added, output of
   the command is not processed.

   See sip-server/modules/exec/etc/exec.cfg in the source tarball
   for information on usage.

   Meaning of the parameters is as follows:

     * command - Command to be executed. It can include
       pseudo-variables.

   WARNING: if the var you are passing out has a bash special
   character in it, the var needs to be placed inside quotes, for
   ex: exec_msg("print-contact.sh '$ct'");

   This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE.

   Example 1-4. exec_msg usage
...
exec_msg("rm -rf /");
exec_msg("rm -rf /home/$fU");
...
     _________________________________________________________

1.5. Known Issues

   There is currently no guarantee that scripts ever return and
   stop blocking SIP server. (There is kill.c but it is not used
   along with the current mechanisms based on popen. Besides that
   kill.c is ugly).
     _________________________________________________________

Chapter 2. Developer's Guide

   The module does not provide any API to use in other OpenSER
   modules.
