Re: [Asterisk-Users] variable in extension.conf
I try to detect if an user who use Netmeeting is connected or not.
I think in order to do that, Netmeeting-user open a web page (in PHP) et
press the button Connect or Disconnect and the PHP set the Environnement
variable which will be proceeded in extension.conf
So i need Environnement Variable, I have test it with :
s,1,SetVar,toto=$VARENV where VARENV is my environnement variable but toto
not take the value. perhaps should I try toto=${VARENV} or toto=${$VARENV}.
Regards

Hi,
How can we use Environnement variable in extension.conf ?
I don't think you can at this moment, and I am not sure that would be a
good idea as you asterisk thread should be long lived and therefore
anything you would put in an environment variable would just as well be
placed in a config file. Not to mention a config file can be reread
without stopping asterisk or interupting running calls.
Could you point out what you wanted to accomplish with environment
variables so we can see if there is a better way of communicating the
information to asterisk with you, or see what I am currently
overlooking.

You can not pass information that way. The environment
variable for your web server is JUST for your web server. It
will not be available to asterisk. Your webserver should not
run as root, nor as the same user as asterisk. Your best bet
would be to get netmeeting to register to asterisk when it is
opened, then asterisk will know the user is available.
You might be able to write an interface in PHP to the manager
port and pass commands (perhaps to set database entries?).

Thats a good idea, currently with the manager interface you can execute
cli commands so that would be easily done. I was thinking of adding
native manager astdb commands, but I haven't had the time to get to it
recently.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] variable in extension.conf
you put some definitions in
[globals] section in extensions.conf
later you just use SetGlobalVar variable to change the
values of global variables and then you just take
the value of a variable like this: ${variable} or
like this ${${variable}} or like this ${extension_${EXTEN}} etc.
a trivial example:
[global]
start=1
[local]
exten = s,1,SetGlobalVar,start=1
exten = s,2,Dial,Zap/${start}
is the same as
exten = s,1,Dial,Zap/1
