Rawman is a way to execute all the manager commands over http through asterisk's http webserver. Keep in mind that you have to uriencode everything as its just like an ajax call, but all of that is already taken care of for you. astman.js would be a great place to start, and there is a TON of sample code in the GUI of where we call asterisk. We have to get config files and the monitoring of channels is done through calling astman. Usually what happens is you can call alot of functions such as updating extensions in extensions.conf, that is all done through building the configuration file through manager. Usually you call a function from the html pages ( a function that you can access from including astman.js ) and those functions access the interface directly, and provide a callback for response text from the manager. My advice is to start messing around with the manager interface (as there is TONS and TONS of stuff you can do, even with monitoring events and storing them in a global array, not the best idea, but its possible!!) You can see the different ways to originate a call, hangup a call with the given channel id, transfer calls....etc etc.
Thanks for all the info. We are already messing around with it :) And we already run into a couple of problems, which we don't know if they are bugs or what. Here are the couple of issues: 1) action=command Is it working? we cant get it to output anything we send to it. 2) action=monitor According to http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+Manager+API+Action+Monitor The command should start monitoring to a wav file defined in the parameters. The thing is, although the channel gets monitored (we are running the commands directly through http and get the "Response Success" message), the file is always 44 bytes long, and doesn't increase its size, no matter how long the channel is open or if there is any conversation on it. Here is how we are calling it: /rawman?action=monitor&channel=SIP%2Fx7062618529-643d&file=archivo-monitor.wav Is something wrong calling it like this? Update: I just realized that if i make a call and don't answer the other end, so the voicemail pops, and monitor the channel, i get the recording. So the above command seems to be OK, but something must be missing... any ideas?
I did not say it would be easy, if you do not know javascript, it will get hard fast. Most of the js is somewhat optimized, and pari is a genius, but we are always open for questions. Any question I cannot answer, he can. So keep working hard, start submitting some sample code, and look at the code that the gui is already made up. Find a page you like, and start picking stuff out.....stay on the mailing list, I will keep responding with as much help as I can. :] -bkruse Leonardo Andrés Gallego wrote: > Hi Brandon, > > On 6/9/07, Brandon Kruse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Hey! >> >> Its great to see some contributors for the GUI. >> >> >> Use those lines for guidelines and fill out a disclaimer and we can >> readily accept and filter code from you. > > Great!
