SIP SIMPLE SDK

Description
-----------

SIP SIMPLE SDK is a Python library for desktop operating systems designed
for the development of real time communications applications based on SIP
protocol and related media like audio, video, messaging, file transfers,
desktop sharing and presence.


Background
----------

SIP stands for 'Sessions Initiation Protocol', an IETF standard described by
RFC 3261. SIP is an application-layer control protocol that can establish,
modify and terminate multimedia sessions such as Internet telephony calls
(VoIP). Media can be added to, and removed from, an existing session.

SIP allows the endpoints to negotiate and combine any type of session they
mutually understand like video, instant messaging (IM), file transfer,
desktop sharing and provides a generic event notification system with
real-time publications and subscriptions about state changes that can be
used for asynchronous services like presence, message waiting indicator and
busy line appearance.


Features
--------

The library has cross platform capabilities on Linux OS, Mac OSX and
Microsoft Windows.  The library should work with minimal changes on any
platform that supports C and Python development environments.


General

 * Written in Python3
 * Non-blocking asynchronous engine
 * Built-in configuration framework
 * TLS Security for signaling (SIP) and media (MSRP, XCAP)
 * TLS server name extention
 * Support for multiple SIP accounts
 * Multiple Media Types per Session (e.g. Video, Audio and IM)
 * Failover support for DNS lookups, SIP and MSRP routing
 * Implements re-INVITEs for adding and removing media streams
 * Automatically handling if IP Address changes
 * Audio conference bridge
 * Wav player and recorder
 * Acoustic Echo Cancelation
 * Answering machine
 * Wide-band Internet audio codecs: Opus and Speex
 * PSTN compatible codecs: G722, G711, iLBC, GSM, AMR
 * Video codecs: H.264, VP8, VP9

Supported media

 * Audio and Video (RTP)
 * Instant Messaging (MSRP and its relay extension)
 * File Transfer (MSRP and its relay extension)
 * Screen Sharing (VNC over MSRP)

All media types can be combined together in the same SIP session.
