Subject: [SR-Users] Tips on picking random element from a list
Hi Everyone,
I have to implement a flow where outbound calls get their caller-id set with a random
number from a pool.
I've been looking around and, as most of the time, there are tons of ways to implement
something like this... This is a simple implementation, the number pool is fixed and will
not change (so I could have it hard-coded in the config if required).
My initial approach was:
1- Try to keep it simple, with no dependencies, and all done in the config script.
2- If #1 is "ugly", then I'd probably go with some inline code using
python/lua/etc
3- If #2 is "ugly", then I'd go with having the info in a DB and just run a
query
I think #2 and #3 might be overkill for something so "simple" but I haven't
had to work too much with randomness in Kamailio, so any tips/suggestions on where to
store the number list and how to pick one randomly would be awesome!
Thanks!!
Joel.
