<p>Hello,</p>
<p>libpcre3 is known to be very fast, not sure you will notice any
performance impact because of runtime regular expression parsing,
everything being done in memory and for sure not with simple
expressions like <span>"(?i)^test$"</span><span>. This happens
because the parameters can have variables, which are first
evaluated, then used for matching.<br>
</span></p>
<p><span>Anyhow, a variant of the function with static parameter for
regex can be added easily.</span></p>
<p><span>On the other hand, you seem to compare with a full value,
so you can just use string comparison functions:</span></p>

<p>Hello,</p>
<p>adding some more details to mention that regex operations
done by the core (the =~ operator) use the libc posix
regex functions, which do not support extended syntax.
Also, these operations done by core use the case
insensitive flag.</p>
<p>As mentioned by Henning, regex should be an alternative,
or maybe dialplan if one wants db-storage+caching of those
regex rules.</p>
<p>Moreover, if the above are not enough, a kemi embedded
interpreter (e.g., app_lua, app_python) can be used with
inline execution in kamailio.cfg routing blocks -- those
external scripting languages should have many options for
regex matching.</p>
<p>Cheers,<br>
