Hello,
What will be the best way to save ISP Information in Kamailio memory?
I have the following information for each ISP into the DB:
*ISP Name | ISP IP | ISP Username | ISP Password | ISP Prefix* ISP1 | 1.1.1.1 | user | pass | 1234
This info it's not changed/updated too often, so I want to avoid querying the DB on every call and get this info directly from the memory.
I was thinking to use htable for that, so I created a htable as an array for that and loaded all the information there manually, something like that:
*kamcmd htable.sets isp ISP1[address] 1.1.1.1* * kamcmd htable.sets isp ISP1[username] user* * kamcmd htable.sets isp ISP1[password] pass*
* kamcmd htable.sets isp ISP1[prefix] 1234 *
*$sht( isp => ISP1[address]) == "1.1.1.1"*
* $sht( isp => ISP1[username]) == "user" *
* $sht( isp => ISP1[password]) == "pass" * * $sht( isp => ISP1[prefix]) == "1234" *
So far so good, I'm able to get this information from the htable and use it whenever I need it. Now, the problem comes when I want to load all this information automatically from the DB. How can I setup htable module to get the array key (address, username...) from the database automatically on server restart, and append this array_key to the column value?
I've tried this way: modparam("htable", "htable", "isp=>size=8;dbtable=isp;cols='trunk_name[address],trunk_address'")
But it's not working unfortunately, getting back this error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near '[address]'
If I'm setting this way: modparam("htable", "htable", "isp=>size=8;dbtable=isp;cols='trunk_name,trunk_address'")
and setting trunk_name value to: ISP1[address], then it's working fine, but in this case I will have to create by one column for each array key, which may be confusing and it's a lot of unnecessarily information into the DB. Is it possible to do that, or better to trigger a script on each restart which will load this information from the DB into htable? Thanks
