Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Hi all! I have implemented evapi module on Kamailio 5.8.4, calling a python script. Python script is listening to a socket. It receives messages (JSON) from Kamailio, makes an HTTP request somewhere, and sends the response back to Kamailio. The Python script is working fine: it connects to Kamailio, sends HTTP requests, and forwards a response back to Kamailio: I have confirmed using TCPDump that, in fact, the data is received and forwarded back. However, despite showing messages that the Python client script is correctly connected to Kamailio, the event_route[evapi:message-received] is never executed. Probably there is some detail that I am missing, but the docs and online info for evapi are very rare, and they all show very similar configuration. And as I wrote, I have confirmed using TCPDump that the data is received from Python client script to Kamailio node. What am I missing? This is my Kamailio cfg: [loads modules] [sets modparams] modparam("evapi","bind_addr","10.20.20.1:8888") debug=2 children=16 log_facility=LOG_LOCAL0 log_prefix="{$mt $hdr(CSeq) $ci} " disable_sctp = yes force_rport = yes rundir="/tmp" request_route { if ( is_method("ACK") ) { if ( t_check_trans() ) { t_relay(); } exit; } if(is_method("OPTIONS")){ sl_reply("200", "OK"); exit; } if(is_method("CANCEL")){ sl_reply("200","OK"); sl_reply("487","Request Terminated"); exit; } route(TOEVAPI); exit; } event_route[evapi:connection-new] { xlog("LINFO","new connection from [$evapi(srcaddr):$evapi(srcport)]\n"); if($evapi(srcaddr)!="10.20.0.1") { evapi_close(); exit; } } event_route[evapi:connection-closed] { xlog("LINFO","connection closed by $evapi(srcaddr):$evapi(srcport)\n"); } event_route[evapi:message-received] { xlog("LINFO","received [$evapi(msg)] from $evapi(srcaddr):$evapi(srcport)\n"); jansson_get("t-index", "$evapi(msg)", "$var(t-index)"); jansson_get("t-label", "$evapi(msg)", "$var(t-label)"); $var(evmsg) = $evapi(msg); xlog("L_INFO", "preparing to resume transaction for processing: $var(tindex) / $var(tlabel)\n"); t_continue("$var(tindex)", "$var(tlabel)", "EVAPIRESPONSE"); } route[EVAPIRESPONSE] { xlog("L_INFO", "resumed transaction for processing: $T(id_index) / $T(id_label)\n"); [do stuff] } route[TOEVAPI]{ xlog("L_INFO", "suspended transaction: $T(id_index) / $T(id_label)\n"); evapi_async_relay( [some JSON string] ); exit; } Thanks in advance!

Given the constraints and requirements previously expressed in this thread, I don't see much point in using EVAPI for you, nor is there any reason to expect a performance improvement. You might keep more of your sanity if you just stick to the async_http_client plan. My arguments in favour of EVAPI were rooted in a different set of assumptions about what you're doing and why you're doing it. -- Alex sr-users(a)lists.kamailio.org&gt; wrote: async http using python's aiohttp module. improve, feel free to let me know. host/IP endpoint json=received_json) str(response.status_code)) response_json) service client_socket.sendall((response_json).encode('utf-8')) {response.status_code}", > "details": response.text > } client_socket.sendall(json.dumps(error_msg).encode('utf-8')) > except requests.exceptions.RequestException as req_err: > # Handle requests exceptions (network errors, timeouts, etc.) > error_msg = { > "error": "REST API request failed", > "details": str(req_err) > } client_socket.sendall(json.dumps(error_msg).encode('utf-8')) service.") > except json.JSONDecodeError as json_err: > # Handle JSON parsing errors > error_msg = { > "error": "Invalid JSON received", > "details": str(json_err) > } client_socket.sendall(json.dumps(error_msg).encode('utf-8')) > print("Sent JSON error message back to service.") > except socket.error as sock_err: > print(f"Socket error: {sock_err}") > finally: > # Close the socket connection when done > client_socket.close() > print("Socket closed.") > if __name__ == '__main__': > main() > Atenciosamente / Kind Regards / Cordialement / Un saludo, > Sérgio Charrua > On Wed, Jan 8, 2025 at 11:10 PM Ben Kaufman via sr-users < sr-users(a)lists.kamailio.org&gt; wrote: example that reproduces the problem). > Honestly, I tried going down this path as a follow up to the discussions on using http-async the other week, and while I have no doubt there is a performance gain using evapi, I had no success coding an async client (in other words, my client requests to an http service, etc. were blocking).
