+====== Siremis v5.3.x - Adding New DB Table Views ======
+Siremis offers a flexible way of managing the records inside database tables used by Kamailio. Most of them are covered by existing Siremis distribution, still there are some missing (expected to be added in the next releases), but also it many cases you may have custom tables used by Kamailio (via **sqlops** module for example).
+Starting with this version, Siremis comes with several PHP tools that allows you to generate views for tables in Kamailio database in no time.
+===== Preparing The Tools =====
+First you have to install Siremis so that Kamailio's database connection attributes are set. Then, in the top directory of Siremis (i.e., /var/www/siremis-x.y.z) do:
+<code>
+make toolsx
+</code>
+To run the db table view generation tool, you have to install command line php - php5-cli or php7.0-cli. On Debian/Ubuntu:
+<code>
+apt-get install php-cli
+# or
+apt-get install php5-cli
+# or
+apt-get install php7.0-cli
+</code>
+===== Generating New Table View =====
+From Siremis' top directory, go to **siremis/bin/toolx**.
+You have to execute **gen_meta.php**, giving as parameter the database connection ID (for Kamailio database this is **Serdb**), name of the table and the Siremis submodule ID.
+Next command shows how the view for **mtree** table was generated.
+<code>
+cd siremis/bin/toolx
+php gen_meta.php Sipdb mtree sipadmin.rtg.mtree
+</code>
+In this example, Siremis submodule ID is **sipadmin.srv.mtree**, meaning:
+  * it is part of Siremis module **sipadmin** (where all components related to Kamailio are located)
+  * generated forms should be inside directory **siremis/modules/sipadmin/srv/mtree/**
+    * practically, if you replace dot (.) with forward slash, Siremis submodule ID matches the path inside directory **siremis/modules**
+If you look inside **siremis/modules/sipadmin/srv/mtree/**, there are two subdirectories:
+  * **do** - data object specifications
+  * **form** - web forms specifications - adding new, editing, copying, viewing or seaching mtree records
+Another file that was generated is the Siremis Web View for mtree management. It is located at:
+<code>
+siremis/modules/sipadmin/view/MtreeListView.xml
+</code>
+It includes the references to the Form objects used for this view.
+===== Inserting New View In Menu =====
+All that is needed to manage the records in **mtree** table was generated in previous step, Missing part is linking it from Siremis menu in order to access the operations to manage **mtree** table.
+The menu of Siremis module **sipadmin** is located at:
+<code>
+siremis/modules/sipadmin/mod.xml
+</code>
+Edit it and add a new entry in the XML tree. For **mtree**, we added it to **Server Services**:
+<code xml>
+...
+    <Menu>
+        <MenuItem Name="System.Sipadmin" Title="SIPAdmin Menu" Description="SIP Admin Management" URL="/sipadmin/sipadmin_default" IconImage="spacer.gif" IconCssClass="" Order="25">
+...
+              <MenuItem Name="System.Sipadmin.Srv" Title="Server Services" Parent="System.Sipadmin" Order="20">
+...
+                    <MenuItem Name="System.Sipadmin.Srv.Mtree.List" Title="Mtree List" Description=""
+					URL="{@home:url}/sipadmin/mtree_list" Order="90"/>
+...
+</code>
+The mtree entry is the last **MenuItem** node in the above snippet. The main attributes for it are:
+  * name - it has to be an unique identifier in the menu
+  * title - it is the text that appears in the menu
+  * url - it is the web URL of the view for mtree management
+    * **{@home:url}** - this is an internal variable pointing to the HTTP URL of current Siremis instance
+    * **sipadmin** is the name of the Siremis module which includes the view
+    * **mtree_list** - is built from the name of the view file (in this case MtreeListView.xml), by starting with lower case, before any upper case letter put an underscore (_), the suffix **View** and the extension **.xml** are ignored
+  * order - set the order in the menu
+===== Removing The Tools =====
+The tools files are available via web browser. Although they require command line interaction, their security exposure was not analyzed, so as soon as you finish using them, just remove them. In the top directory of Siremis run:
+<code>
+make cleantoolsx
+</code>
+===== More Docs =====
+Siremis is built on top of **phpopenbiz** and **cubi** frameworks, you can read more documentation about how to extend it at:
+  * https://github.com/openbiz
+  * http://code.google.com/p/openbiz-cubi/
+Many tutorials are available in project's wiki pages:
