MessageQueue
From Yate Documentation
The MessageQueues is used to create a mechanism for organizing YATE's messages in different queues, identified by message name and some specified filters.

How to create MessageQueue
In JavaScript a MessageQueue can be created by calling Message.installHook() method.
A description of MessageQueue behaviour can be found here .
installHook parameters
- processCallback - function, optional. The method that should process the messages skipping the engine handlers list.
- msgName - string, mandatory. The message name for the queue filtering.
- workers - integer, mandatory. The number of workers that should be used for message processing.
- trapCallback - function, optional. The method that should be called when a queue overload is detected.
- trapCount - integer, mandatory if trapCallback is present. The number of messages in the queue when we should be alerted.
- filter - string, optional, can be repeated. Optional message filter. Should be in form 'name=value'.
Examples
1. Creates a MessageQueue for engine.timer message with one processing thread.
installHook("engine.timer",1);
2. Creates a MessageQueue for call.route message, who has called=123. Two processing threads will be created. When a message needs to be processed the callback method will be called.
installHook(callback,"call.route",2,"called=123");
3. The same behaviour as above only that the trapCallback method will be called when in the queue exists more than 50 unprocessed messages
installHook(callback,"call.route",2,trapCallback,50,"called=123");
When to use?
MessageQueue can be used:
- when a message cames more than once
- when a message sends more messages that needs to be processed
- when you want to avoid using Yate's message queue
