kumo.invoke_get_egress_source

local config = kumo.invoke_get_egress_source(source_name)

{{since('2025.12.02-67ee9e96')}}

This function triggers a call through to the get_egress_source event callback(s) that have been defined in the policy to obtain the effective configuration for the specified source_name.

The result of that is then serialized and returned as a lua value that has the same shape as the PARAMS defined for kumo.make_egress_source.

This function may be satisfied by the internal cache of resolved source configuration information, so it may not directly trigger the get_egress_source callback every time that it is called.

!!! danger Take care when using this function and its related invoke_xxx functions, as you can potentially create cross-dependent, mututally recursive, event callbacks that call into each other.
