[SR-Users] Looking for network version of ds_reload

[Alex Balashov]

Hello Chad,

My suggestion would be to use the 'jsonrpc-s' module:

http://kamailio.org/docs/modules/4.4.x/modules/jsonrpc-s.html

This runs over the 'xhttp' module, and requires enabling the TCP 
transport. However, the end result is that with very little config 
script, it will allow you to run next-generation RPC commands, including 
the equivalent of 'ds_reload', 'dispatcher.reload':

http://kamailio.org/docs/modules/4.4.x/modules/dispatcher.html#dispatcher.f.reload

You would run it using something like this:

$ curl -v -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Call-ID: abc12' \
-d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "dispatcher.reload", "id": "0deadb33f"}' \
http://your.kamailio.server:5060/rpc_path/

The basic boilerplate is as simple as:

----

listen=tcp:0.0.0.0:5060

loadmodule "xhttp"
loadmodule "jsonrpc-s"

modparam("xhttp", "url_match", "^/rpc_path/")
modparam("jsonrpc-s", "pretty_format", 1)

event_route[xhttp:request] {
    if($hu =~ "^/rpc_path")
       jsonrpc_dispatch();
    else
       xhttp_reply("404", "Not Found", "text/html", "");
}

----

Of course, in the real world, you'll want to consider authentication, IP 
ACLs, and other things that go into some sort of security thought 
process. But that's the basic idea.
