evapi: new module to push event details via tcp to external applications
I think this is a great start - but also (based on my exprience with Asterisk
manager) complex.
Would it be beneficial to have a larger discussion about requirements and
formats before too
much code is produced?
Yes, I will start it very soon, just didn't have time yet -- I had the
code already working as prototype, so I pushed to have something to rely on.
If I understand correctly, we only have one type of message - "event". Is there
a need for other
types of messages?
We will discuss and decide.
Using a Json payload for the payload seems clever and extensible to me.
When a connection is opened, should we send an event to identify a particular
server, version of the server and version of the evapi so that client can
handle changes and upgrades in the future?
Should potential commands from client to server be done over the standard RPC
commands - do we really need a new way for clients to control Kamailio? The
event part was clearly missing, but we have a few ways to connect to Kamailio
already.
Can we protect this listen port with TLS? Do we need authentication?
Authentication is planned, tls can be added in the future. Main goal is
for local communication between kamailio and some application. But then
it can be extended as needed.
I was using libev, not the core code for transport, thinking of playing
with this framework for concurrency, not expecting anyhow lot of
connections there. It might be a good reason to try gnutls particulary
for this case when we want to add tls to see if is easier/better in any
way than openssl.
Cheers,
Daniel
Just a few thoughts. This will be a very important new feature, so it's
important we get it right.
Thank you for starting this, Daniel!
