freeswitch-types

FreeSWITCH protocol types and general-purpose SIP header parser. No async runtime dependency.

Includes SipHeaderAddr, a standalone RFC 3261 name-addr parser with header-level parameters — usable in any SIP project, not just FreeSWITCH. With default-features = false, the only dependencies are sip-header and percent-encoding.

Also provides FreeSWITCH ESL types (channel state, events, commands, variables) for CDR parsing, config generation, command building, or channel variable validation without pulling in tokio.

For async ESL transport (connecting to FreeSWITCH, sending commands, receiving events), see freeswitch-esl-tokio which re-exports everything from this crate.

What's included

SipHeaderAddr, extract_header, SipHeader, SipHeaderLookup, and the RFC 4575 conference-info+xml types (behind the conference-info feature) are not modules of this crate -- they come from the re-exported sip-header crate, reachable from the crate root or through sip_header::conference_info.

Features

• esl (enabled by default) — ESL event and command types (EslEvent, Originate, Variables, etc.). Pulls in indexmap for ordered header storage. Disable if you only need SipHeaderAddr or channel state enums.
• serde (enabled by default) — adds Serialize/Deserialize impls for all public types. Disable with default-features = false if you only need wire-format parsing (Display/FromStr) without pulling in serde.
• conference-info — enables ConferenceInfo::from_xml()/to_xml() for parsing RFC 4575 application/conference-info+xml documents (pulls in quick-xml). Type definitions are always available without this feature.
• sdp — enables the sdp module (CodecString, SdpCodecs, CodecImplementation), pulling in sdp-types.

Usage

[dependencies]
freeswitch-types = "1"

SIP header parsing only (no FreeSWITCH dependencies):

[dependencies]
freeswitch-types = { version = "1", default-features = false }

SIP header address parsing

SipHeaderAddr parses the (name-addr / addr-spec) *(SEMI generic-param) production from SIP headers like From, To, Contact, and Refer-To. It replaces sip_uri::NameAddr (deprecated since sip-uri 0.2.0) by handling header-level parameters that follow the URI. General-purpose SIP — no FreeSWITCH dependency.

use freeswitch_types::SipHeaderAddr;

let addr: SipHeaderAddr =
    r#""Alice" <sip:alice@example.com>;tag=abc123"#.parse().unwrap();
assert_eq!(addr.display_name(), Some("Alice"));
assert_eq!(addr.tag(), Some("abc123"));
assert_eq!(addr.sip_uri().unwrap().user(), Some("alice"));

Command builders (requires esl feature)

use std::time::Duration;
use freeswitch_types::commands::*;

let cmd = Originate::application(
    Endpoint::SofiaGateway(SofiaGateway::new("my_provider", "18005551234")),
    Application::simple("park"),
)
.cid_name("Outbound Call")
.cid_num("5551234")
.timeout(Duration::from_secs(30));

// All builders implement Display, producing the FreeSWITCH wire format
assert!(cmd.to_string().starts_with("originate sofia/gateway/"));

// All builders implement FromStr for round-trip parsing
let parsed: Originate = cmd.to_string().parse().unwrap();
assert_eq!(parsed.to_string(), cmd.to_string());

Typed event accessors

use freeswitch_types::{HeaderLookup, SipHeaderLookup, EventHeader, ChannelVariable};

// HeaderLookup works with any key-value store, not just EslEvent
struct MyHeaders(std::collections::HashMap<String, String>);

impl SipHeaderLookup for MyHeaders {
    fn sip_header_str(&self, name: &str) -> Option<&str> {
        self.0.get(name).map(|s| s.as_str())
    }
}

impl HeaderLookup for MyHeaders {
    fn header_str(&self, name: &str) -> Option<&str> {
        self.0.get(name).map(|s| s.as_str())
    }
    fn variable_str(&self, name: &str) -> Option<&str> {
        self.0.get(&format!("variable_{}", name)).map(|s| s.as_str())
    }
}

// Now MyHeaders has all typed accessors:
// h.channel_state(), h.call_direction(), h.hangup_cause(),
// h.header(EventHeader::UniqueId), h.variable(ChannelVariable::ReadCodec), etc.

Serde support (requires serde feature, enabled by default)

All builder types implement Serialize/Deserialize for config-driven usage:

use freeswitch_types::Originate;

let json = r#"{
    "endpoint": {"sofia_gateway": {"gateway": "carrier", "destination": "18005551234"}},
    "application": {"name": "park"},
    "timeout_secs": 30
}"#;
let cmd: Originate = serde_json::from_str(json).unwrap();
println!("{}", cmd);

Raw SIP message header extraction

extract_header pulls header values from raw SIP message text, handling case-insensitive matching, header folding, and multi-occurrence extraction per RFC 3261 §7.3.1. Pairs naturally with the existing value parsers:

use freeswitch_types::{extract_header, SipHeaderAddr, UriInfo};

let raw_invite = "INVITE sip:sos@bcf.example.com SIP/2.0\r\n\
    Call-Info: <urn:emergency:uid:callid:abc>;purpose=emergency-CallId\r\n\
    P-Asserted-Identity: \"Alice\" <sip:+15551234567@example.com>\r\n\
    \r\n";

let ci_vals = extract_header(raw_invite, "Call-Info");
let ci = UriInfo::parse(&ci_vals[0]).unwrap();
assert_eq!(ci.entries()[0].purpose(), Some("emergency-CallId"));

let pai_vals = extract_header(raw_invite, "P-Asserted-Identity");
let pai: SipHeaderAddr = pai_vals[0].parse().unwrap();
assert_eq!(pai.display_name(), Some("Alice"));

SipPassthroughHeader and SipHeader also provide extract_from() for convenience when working with typed header enums.

Variable parsers

use freeswitch_types::variables::{EslArray, MultipartBody};

let arr = EslArray::parse("ARRAY::item1|:item2|:item3").unwrap();
assert_eq!(arr.items(), &["item1", "item2", "item3"]);

Relationship to freeswitch-esl-tokio

This crate contains all domain types extracted from the freeswitch-esl-tokio workspace. The ESL crate re-exports everything, so users of freeswitch-esl-tokio don't need to depend on this crate directly.

Depend on freeswitch-types directly when you need FreeSWITCH types without async transport (CDR processors, config validators, CLI tools, test harnesses).
