Hi Olle, 

I prefer not to use it since you rightly pointed out that it will block the thread during the request.

Since a lot of sip phones will register & interact with kamailio it could seriously hurt the performance.

I will implement caching for sure regardless of the async/non-async-non-optimal solution, but I still hope that this issue will be solved.

Cheers,

Cyril

Hi Karsten,

Thanks for the clue, unfortunately I can't use this module because the clients are "dumb" sip phones.

The goal of my implementation is to use our application API to handle the login.

The plan was that a sip phone sends a REGISTER, I ask the API endpoint if this user/password is ok to connect and allow/deny based on the reply and informations provided by the API.

Everything is relying on the fact that I can make my HTTP call when handling the REGISTER, sadly for me, it doesn't work and I still can't figure why.
Try http_client. I’ve used it a lot of time for authentication. It will block your thread while waiting for response, but you can handle some of those issues by caching secrets for a short time with htable.

Hi Cyril,

This Kamailio module could imho do the same

Hi there,

I have a weird issue with kamailio (latest docker image kamailio-ci:5.5.2-alpine) and http_async_client.

Before posting a lot of logs, let me describe what I want to achieve.

I have a Kamailio and a SIP Phone.

The SIP phone sends a REGISTER to kamailio, then in my routing block, I check if I have an Authorization header.

Since I don't have an Authorization (first message), I use "www_challenge()".
This replies to the SIP phone, and then the SIP phone sends a new REGISTER with the correct Authorization header.

So far so good.

Now, when I get the REGISTER with Authorization header, I want to ask an HTTP endpoint if this user is allowed to connect and check the password using http_async_query().

The problem is that when the transaction resumes, the tmx module is unhappy and throws this error :

30(36) CRITICAL: tmx [t_var.c:546]: pv_get_tm_reply_code(): no picked branch (-1) for a final response in MODE_ONFAILURE

And a 500 error is sent back to the sip phone.
The AUTH_REPLY route is still called and I can use the $http* values.

Do you see something that I am doing wrong or missing in my logic?
Is pausing/resuming to use the async http client is allowed if I'm handling a REGISTER transaction?

Here's a simplified version of my routing block (not far from reality):

##### SNIP 

request_route{
route(AUTH);

route[AUTH]{
    if (is_method("REGISTER"){
        if(no_auth_header){
            www_challenge("$td","1");
            exit;
        }
        else{
            t_newtran();
            http_async_query("http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:9000/auth?foo=bar", "AUTH_REPLY");
        }
    }
}

route[AUTH_REPLY]{
    xlog("L_INFO", "route[HTTP_REPLY]: status $http_rs\n");
}

}
##### END SNIP


Best regards!
