[OpenSIPS-Users] [NEW] Event Interface enhancements

[Răzvan Crainea]

Hello all!

As the OpenSIPS 1.9 release is coming up soon, we decided to release 
some new enhancements for the Event Interface, that will facilitate the 
interconnection with other applications and provide an easier way for 
monitoring the OpenSIPS server. Following that, the latest version of 
OpenSIPS Event Interface will provide two new transport modules:

  * *event_xmlrpc*- used to execute a XMLRPC command when an event is 
triggered
* * **event_r**oute*- provides an easy way to handle a certain event 
from script (for example, when the load or memory usage is too high, 
gracefully reject any new traffic)

See: http://www.opensips.org/html/docs/modules/devel/event_xmlrpc
http://www.opensips.org/html/docs/modules/devel/event_route 
<http://www.opensips.org/html/docs/modules/devel/event_xmlrpc>


Also, in order to facilitate the server monitoring we have added three 
more events:

  * *E_MYSQL_CONNECTION *- triggered by the db_mysql module when a MySQL 
connection looses the connectivity with the database. This is useful to 
determine the database failures and act accordingly in no time.
  * *E_CORE_PKG_THRESHOLD*and *E_CORE_SHM_THRESHOLD*- triggered when the 
private (respectively shared) memory go beyond a specific threshold. 
These events can be used to detect when the server reaches low free 
memory values, and gracefully reject the new traffic, so that the 
ongoing calls can successfully terminate.

Finally, to have a better understanding of the new features, we have 
compiled a small tutorial for the Event Interface. It illustrates the 
usage of the new feature, as well as providing use case examples, like 
custom accounting or load monitoring.

I hope you will enjoy all the newly added features, and stay tuned, 
because more are coming!

Best regards,
