OpenSIPS provides multiple type of variables to be used in the routing script. The difference between the types of variables comes from (1) the visibility of the variable (when it is visible), (2) what the variable is attached to (where the variable resides), (3) read-write status of the variable (some types of the variables are read-only and (4) how multiple values (for the same variable are handled).

The OpenSIPS variables can be easily identified in the script as all their names (or notations) start with the $ sign.

Syntax:
The complete syntax for a pseudo variable is:

$(<context>name(subname)[index]{transformation})

The fields written in green are optional. The fields meaning is:

Usage examples:

Types of variables:

1. Script variables 🔗

Naming: **$var(name)**

Hints:

  1. if you want to start using a script variable in a route, better initialize it with same value (or reset it), otherwise you may inherit a value from a previous route that was executed by the same process.
  2. script variables are faster than AVPs, as they directly reference a memory location.
  3. the value of script variables persists over a OpenSIPS process.
  4. a script variable can only hold one value.

Example of usage:

$var(a) = 2;  # sets the value of variable 'a' to integer '2'
$var(a) = "2";  # sets the value of variable 'a' to string '2'
$var(a) = 3 + (7&(~2)); # arithmetic and bitwise operation
$var(a) = "sip:" + $au + "@" + $fd; # compose a value from authentication username and From URI domain
$var(a) = true; # sets the value of variable 'a' to integer 1

# using a script variable for tests
if( [ $var(a) & 4 ] ) {
  xlog("var a has third bit set\n");
}

Setting a variable to NULL is actually initializing the value to integer '0'. Script variables don't have NULL value.

2. AVP variables 🔗

Naming: **$avp(name)** or **$(avp(name)[N])**

When using the index "N" you can force the AVP to return a certain value (the N-th value). If no index is given, the first value will be returned.

Hints:

  1. to enable AVPs in onreply_route, use "modparam("tm", "onreply_avp_mode", 1)"
  2. if multiple values are used for a single AVP, the values are index in revert order than added
  3. AVPs are part of the transaction context, so they will be visible everywhere where the transaction is present.
  4. the value of an AVP can be deleted

Example of usage:

  1. Transaction persistence example
# enable avps in onreply route
modparam("tm", "onreply_avp_mode", 1)
...
route{
...
$avp(tmp) = $Ts ; # store the current time (at request processing)
...
t_onreply("1");
t_relay();
...
}

onreply_route[1] {
	if (t_check_status("200")) {
		# calculate the setup time
		$var(setup_time) = $Ts - $avp(tmp);
	}
}
  1. Multiple values example
$avp(17) = "one";
# we have a single value
$avp(17) = "two";
# we have two values ("two","one")
$avp(17) = "three";
# we have three values ("three","two","one")

xlog("accessing values with no index: $avp(17)\n");
# this will print the first value, which is the last added value -> "three"

xlog("accessing values with no index: $(avp(17)[2])\n");
# this will print the index 2 value (third one), -> "one"

# remove the last value of the avp; if there is only one value, the AVP itself will be destroyed
$avp(17) = NULL;

# delete all values and destroy the AVP
avp_delete("$avp(17)/g");

# delete the value located at a certain index 
$(avp(17)[1]) = NULL;

#overwrite the value at a certain index
$(avp(17)[0]) = "zero";

The AVPOPS module provides a lot of useful functions to operate AVPs (like checking values, pushing values into different other locations, deleting AVPs, etc).

3. Scripting Variables 🔗

Naming: $name

Hints:

  1. the PV tokens can be given as parameters to different script functions and they will be replaced with a value before the execution of the function.
  2. most of PVs are made available by OpenSIPS core, but there are also module exporting PV (to make available info specific to that module) - check the modules documentation.

Predefined (provided by core) PVs are listed in alphabetical order.

3.83  To URI - $tu 🔗

$tu - reference to URI of 'To' header

3.84  To URI Username - $tU 🔗

$tU - reference to username in URI of 'To' header

3.85  Formatted date and time - $time 🔗

$time(format) - returns the string formatted time according to UNIX date (see: man date).

3.86  Branch index - $T_branch_idx 🔗

$T_branch_idx - the index (starting with 1 for the first branch) of the branch for which is executed the branch_route[]. If used outside of branch_route[] block, the value is '0'. This is exported by TM module.

3.87  String formatted time - $Tf 🔗

$Tf - reference string formatted time

3.88  Current unix time stamp in seconds - $Ts 🔗

$Ts - reference to current unix time stamp in seconds

3.89  Current microseconds of the current second - $Tsm 🔗

$Tsm - reference to current microseconds of the current second

3.90  Startup unix time stamp - $TS 🔗

$TS - reference to startup unix time stamp

3.91  User agent header - $ua 🔗

$ua - reference to user agent header field

3.92  SIP Headers - $hdr 🔗

$(hdr(name)[N]) - represents the body of the N-th header identified by 'name'. If [N] is omitted then the body of the first header is printed. The first header is got when N=0, for the second N=1, a.s.o. To print the last header of that type, use -1, no other negative values are supported now. No white spaces are allowed inside the specifier (before }, before or after {, [, ] symbols). When N='*', all headers of that type are printed.

The module should identify most of compact header names (the ones recognized by OpenSIPS which should be all at this moment), if not, the compact form has to be specified explicitly. It is recommended to use dedicated specifiers for headers (e.g., %ua for user agent header), if they are available -- they are faster.

$(hdr_name[N]) - returns the name of the N-th header. The first header name is obtained for N=0, the second for N=1, a.s.o. To print the last header name use -1, the second last -2 a.s.o. No white spaces are allowed inside the specifier (before }, before or after {, [, ] symbols). When N='*', all header names are printed.

$(hdrcnt(name)) -- returns number of headers of type given by 'name'. Uses same rules for specifying header names as $hdr(name) above. Many headers (e.g., Via, Path, Record-Route) may appear more than once in the message. This variable returns the number of headers of a given type.

Note that some headers (e.g., Path) may be joined together with commas and appear as a single header line. This variable counts the number of header lines, not header values.

For message fragment below, $hdrcnt(Path) will have value 2 and $(hdr(Path)[0]) will have value <a.com>:

    Path: <a.com>
    Path: <b.com>

For message fragment below, $hdrcnt(Path) will have value 1 and $(hdr(Path)[0]) will have value <a.com>,<b.com>:

    Path: <a.com>,<b.com>

Note that both examples above are semantically equivalent but the variables take on different values.

3.93  Route Name (Full) - $route 🔗

$route - Access route names of the current route call stack. Usage examples (assuming a route call stack of "route > route[A] > route[B]"):

3.94  Route Type - $route.type 🔗

$route.type - Access the type of the current route. May be indexed, using positive or negative indexes.

3.95  Route Name - $route.name 🔗

$route.name - Access the name of the current route. May be indexed, using positive or negative indexes.

3.96  Current script line and file - $cfg_line 🔗

$cfg_line - Holds the current line from the script of the action being executed, useful for logging purposes
$cfg_file - Holds the current name of the cfg file being executed, useful when using multiple scripts via the include statement

3.97  Log level for xlog() - $xlog_level 🔗

$xlog_level - allows to set /reset the xlog() logging level on per-process bases. Shortly said, you can read the verbosity level for the xlog() calls or you can temporary change the level per process bases.

Example:

xlog("current verbosity is $xlog_level \n");
$xlog_level = L_DBG; # force local xlogging limit to DBG
...
(set of xlogs)
...
$xlog_level = NULL;  # reset to initial value

4. Escape Sequences

These sequences are exported, and mainly used, by xlog module to print messages in many colors (foreground and background) using escape sequences.

4.1 Foreground and background colors

$C(xy) - reference to an escape sequence. ¿x¿ represents the foreground color and ¿y¿ represents the background color.

Colors could be:

4.2 Examples

A few examples of usage.

...
route {
...
    $avp(uuid)="caller_id";
    $avp(tmp)= $avp(uuid) + ": " + $fu;
    xlog("$C(bg)$avp(tmp)$C(xx) [$avp(tmp)] $C(br)$cs$C(xx)=[$hdr(cseq)]\n");
...
}
