Hello,
Is it possible write more readable regular expression
if ($tU =~ "(?i)^test$") {
...
}
instead of "^[tT][eE][sS][tT]$"?
On the first option, I get the error:
0(47250) ERROR: <core> [core/rvalue.c:3038]: fix_match_rve(): Bad regular
expression

Hello,
just an idea, have you already tried this module:

Hello,
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.
As mentioned by Henning, regex should be an alternative, or maybe
dialplan if one wants db-storage+caching of those regex rules.
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.
Cheers,
Daniel

Henning, Daniel,
thanks for your replies.
1. I don't want to use a Regex module because it might have a performance
impact.
Matches the given string parameter against the regular
expression
pcre_regex, which is compiled in runtime into a PCRE object.
2. I was surprised to find that the operator "=~" is case insensitive:
if (regcomp(re, (char*) exp->r.param,
REG_EXTENDED|REG_NOSUB|REG_ICASE) ){
LM_CRIT("bad re \"%s\"\n", (char*) exp->r.param);
pkg_free(re);
return E_BAD_RE;
}
so that enough for me:
$tU =~ "^test$"
Btw, what if I need case sensitive validation? Should I use the Regex
module?
Regards,
Marat

Hello,
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 "(?i)^test$". This happens because the parameters can have
variables, which are first evaluated, then used for matching.
Anyhow, a variant of the function with static parameter for regex can be
added easily.
On the other hand, you seem to compare with a full value, so you can
just use string comparison functions:

Daniel,
"(?i)^test$" is just an example, actually regex is a little
more complicated.
In this case, libpcre3 is a good way to use PCRE expressions.
Thanks!
