1. Overview

   This module loads (prefix, value) records from database and indexes
   them in a named memory tree. Name of the tree is specified for each
   record or as module parameter.

   It exports to configuration file functions to match against in-memory
   trees and return the values (raw or precompiled) associated with
   matched prefixes.

   The maximum size of the prefix is limited internally to 63, database
   table definition may enforce lower maximum size.

2. Dependencies

2.1. Kamailio Modules

   The following modules must be loaded before this module:
     * A Kamailio database module (e.g., mysql).

2.2. External Libraries or Applications

   The following libraries or applications must be installed before
   running Kamailio with this module loaded:
     * None.

   3.2. db_table (string)
   3.3. mtree (string)
   3.4. tname_column (string)
   3.5. tprefix_column (string)

   3.11. mt_tree_type (integer)
   3.12. mt_ignore_duplicates (integer)
   3.13. mt_allow_duplicates (integer)

3.1. db_url (string)

   URL of the database server to be used.

   Default value is “mysql://kamailio:kamailiorw@localhost/kamailio”.

   Example 1.1. Set db_url parameter
...
modparam("mtree", "db_url", "dbdriver://username:password@dbhost/dbname")
...

3.2. db_table (string)

   Name of database table where data for many trees is stored. It is
   ignored if a 'mtree' parameter is defined. The SQL scripts creates a
   table named 'mtrees' that can be used for this parameter.

   Default value is “” (no table name).

   Example 1.2. Set db_table parameter
...
modparam("mtree", "db_table", "mtrees")
...

3.3. mtree (string)

   Definition of memory tree with using a prameters format string. The
   parameter names can be:
     * name - the name of the tree to be used for referencing inside
       configuration file.
     * dbtable - the name of the database table from where to load the
       records stored in the tree.
     * cols - the column names of the database table. They must be
       enclosed in quotes in order to form a valid SIP parameter value and
       be separated by comma. The first column corresponds to tprefix.
       When specified, there must be at least two columns. If this
       attribute is not specified, then the global module parameters for
       tprefix and tvalue are used. If more than one value columns are
       specified, the tree will pack the column values in a comma
       separated string, which will be associated with the prefix (string
       transformation {s.select,...) can be used in configuration file to
       extract a specific column value).
     * type - the type of tree elements (0 = string, 2 = integer). It is
       valid only when the (tprefix, tvalue) pairs are loaded (not for
       multi-column values).
     * multi - tells if dbtable can contain more than one tree (0 = one
       tree, 1 = more than one tree identified by tname column). It is
       valid only when the (tprefix, tvalue) pairs are loaded (not for
       multi-column values).

   This parameter can be set many times to add more trees in memory.

   Default value is “none”.

   Example 1.3. Set mtree parameter
...
modparam("mtree", "mtree", "name=mytree1;dbtable=routes1;type=0")
modparam("mtree", "mtree", "name=mytree2;dbtable=routes2;type=0;multi=1")
modparam("mtree", "mtree",
    "name=mytree1;dbtable=routes1;cols='key1,val1,val2,val3'")
...

3.4. tname_column (string)

   Name of 'tname' column.

   Default value is “tname”.

   Example 1.4. Set tname_column parameter
...
modparam("mtree", "tname_column", "name")
...

3.5. tprefix_column (string)

   Name of 'tprefix' column.

   Default value is “tprefix”.

   Example 1.5. Set tprefix_column parameter
...
modparam("mtree", "tprefix_column", "prefix")
...

3.6. tvalue_column (string)

   Name of 'tvalue' column.

   Default value is “tvalue”.

   Example 1.6. Set tvalue_column parameter
...
modparam("mtree", "tvalue_column", "ipaddr")
...

3.7. fetch_rows (integer)

   Number of rows to be loaded in one step from database.

   Default value is 1000.

   Example 1.7. Set fetch_rows parameter
...
modparam("mtree", "fetch_rows", 4000)
...

3.8. char_list (string)

   The list with characters allowed in prefix.

   Default value is “0123456789”.

   Example 1.8. Set char_list parameter
...
modparam("mtree", "char_list", "0123456789*+")
...

3.9. pv_value (string)

   The PV spec where to store the matched value. It can be any writable
   PV.

   Default value is “$avp(s:tvalue)”.

   Example 1.9. Set pv_value parameter
...
modparam("mtree", "pv_value", "$var(mtval)")
...

3.10. pv_values (string)

   The AVP where to store the matched values when mtree is of type 0 or 2
   and mode of mt_match() call has value 2.

   Default value is “$avp(s:tvalues)”.

   Example 1.10. Set pv_values parameter
...
modparam("mtree", "pv_values", "$avp(mtvals)")
...

...

4. Functions

   4.1. mt_match(mtree, pv, mode)

4.1.  mt_match(mtree, pv, mode)

   Match 'pv' value against 'mtree'. If 'mtree' type is 0 or 2 and value
   of 'mode' is NOT 2, sets a value of the longest matching prefix to
   pseudo variable specified by pv_value parameter. If 'mtree' type is 0
   or 2 and value of 'mode' is 2, sets values of all matching prefixes to
   avp specified by pv_values parameter so that a value of longest
   matching prefix is in avp index 0. Parameter 'mode' can be an integer
   constant or a pseudo variable with integer value.

   Returns 1 if match succeeded and -1 otherwise.

   Example 1.14. mt_match usage
...
mt_match("mytree", "$rU", "0");
...
