The module executes route blocks on a timer base. It can create new timer processes and execute many route blocks on same timer. A static faked SIP message is given as parameter to called functions, so all functions available for REQUEST_ROUTE can be used.

The following modules must be loaded before this module: No dependencies on other &kamailio; modules.

The following libraries or applications must be installed before running &kamailio; with this module loaded: None.

The definition of a timer. The value of the parameter must have the following format: "name=_string_;mode=_number_;interval=_number_" The parameter can be set multiple times to get more timers in same configuration file. name - name of the timer. mode - if set to 1, will create a new timer process. interval - timer interval in seconds or micro-seconds (the value must be ended in 'u'). For micro-seconds intervals, mode is set always to 1. Default value is NULL. ... # time interval set to 10 seconds modparam("rtimer", "timer", "name=ta;interval=10;mode=1;") # time interval set to 100 mili-seconds modparam("rtimer", "timer", "name=ta;interval=100000u;mode=1;") ...

Specify route to be executed on timer. The value of the parameter must have the following format: "timer=_string_;route=_number_" The parameter can be set multiple times to get more routes executed on same timer. timer - name of the timer. route - the index of the route to be executed. Default value is NULL. ... modparam("rtimer", "timer", "name=ta;interval=10;mode=1;") modparam("rtimer", "exec", "timer=ta;route=8") route[8] { xlog("timer routine: time is %TF\n"); # delete from my sql cache table entries older than 2H sql_query("delete from kamailio_cache where last_updated<$TS-3600"); } ...
