[Kamailio-Users] registrar module enhancements

[Alex Balashov]

Excellent enhancements!

Is there any hope to have a feature developed where the authentication 
user, password, and domain can be supplied directly to the 
save()/lookup() function via script instead of using either a database 
structure of a certain schema as a persistence layer or doing it purely 
in memory?

This is mainly desired when implementing a registrar that uses database 
persistence but obtains its information from an outside database that 
requires some sort of middleware or API to access and cannot be tailored 
to work with the schema requirements of auth_db/usrloc.
