The size of the body has no limit.</p>
<p>How bout, if a certian header exists in the event with a local file path, then the the mod opens the referenced file for delivery; Otherwise it uses the body if it exists.<br>

Hi all,<br>
<br>
I was thinking about sending CDRs via HTTP in a same or similar way mod_xml_cdr does. I consider implementing this (unless someone else is working on it) but first wanted to discuss with you the best approach.<br>
<br>
<br>
A. All in mod_conference<br>
<br>
This would require to copy many fragments of code from mod_xml_cdr into mod_conference. Also same configuration parameters used in xml_cdr must be processed and used for sending data. The advantage for this solution is that everything related to this mechanism is included in this module. Drawback: if something in mod_xml_cdr requires fixing or extending, probably the same changes should by applied in related parts of mod_conference.<br>
<br>
<br>
B. mod_conference builds, mod_xml_cdr sends data<br>
<br>
For this solution I'll give more details.<br>
1. New event type should be added (like SWITCH_EVENT_CDR)<br>
2. When a module (in this case: mod_conference) wants to store CDR via HTTP it must fire an event of that type and:<br>
- "Event-Subclass" set (like "conference")<br>
- Only common headers are needed, plus...<br>
- "Content-Type" and "Content-Length" must be set<br>
- CDR data must be build as XML in a module and added as an event content.<br>
3. mod_xml_cdr will listen to this event type.<br>
4. For each event subclass which mod_xml_cdr must must react, configuration file will contain a set of params same as for generic channel CDRs.<br>
5. If subclass matches configuration, mod_xml_cdr reads data from event content and sends them according to configuration.<br>
<br>
Changes in mod_conference:<br>
- one new parameter for each profile (like "cdr-via-event=yes|no")<br>
- if "yes" then xml must be build even if "cdr-log-dir" is unset<br>
- if "yes", then an event must be fired as described above<br>
<br>
Changes in mod_xml_cdr:<br>
- extra parameters from configuration to be parsed (like '<settings subclass="conference">....</settings>')<br>
- bind to SWITCH_EVENT_CDR<br>
- if 'Event-Subclass' matches configuration, a content of the event will be sent via HTTP (probably most of 'my_on_report' routine bellow 'try to post it to the web server' comment will be reused)<br>
<br>
A [small] drawback is that it makes an indirect module dependency, but we already have such situations (like mod_shout needed to record a conference in mp3).<br>
<br>
Advantages are:<br>
- one can create an external tool for handling this type of event (to store it directly in db or send it with other protocols)<br>
- this mechanism can be easily reused in other modules if needed; maybe in mod_callcenter, maybe in other components. No further changes in mod_xml_cdr should be needed.<br>
<br>
What is unknown to me is a maximum size of event content. Conference CDR XMLs can be quite big - will it be a problem to send it this way?<br>
<br>
<br>
I think the second solution is better and more universal but I'd like to hear your opinions about this case.<br>
<br>
