Dear community members, I'm happy to announce that we now have code that allows you to use your XMPP (Jabber) client like a softphone to place SIP or PSTN (or whatever channel Asterisk supports) calls.
The XMPP clients that support Jingle that I and others have tested are : - Pidgin (Linux, Ubuntu 9.10), version 2.6.2 : OK - Empathy (Linux, Ubuntu 9.10), version 2.28.1.1 : OK - Psi (Windows XP), version 0.13 : Call establishes, but no sound (seems to be a problem with Speex) For the moment, one can only place calls from the XMPP client to Asterisk, but soon, you'll be able to receive calls on your XMPP client too. Please test the following branch : http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/phsultan/jingle-support Or visit this ticket : https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=15634 The doc/jabber.txt in the code contains code snippets and configuration examples. Hereafter is an example of how to place a call to an Asterisk server through the Jingle channel. The user places a Jingle call to Asterisk from his XMPP client's UI, which triggers a chat message being sent back to him, asking him to enter a number to call. And that's it, Asterisk just relays the call to the configured destination (here, a registered SIP phone). context jingle-in { s => { Answer(); SendText(Please enter the number you wish to call); Set(NEWEXTEN=${JABBER_RECEIVE(asterisk-xmpp,${CALLERID(name)})}); SendText(Calling ${NEWEXTEN} ...); Dial(SIP/${NEWEXTEN); Hangup(); } } Thanks, Philippe _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
