Re: [Freeswitch-users] mod_php needed
You should be able to use PHP with mod_managed just fine. You'll just need Phalanger: http://www.codeplex.com/Phalanger http://www.php-compiler.net/doku.php I don't have any use for PHP, but if anyone is interested in this, I'd be happy to help out if it doesn't "just work" out of the box. It should work on MS CLR and Mono. It also has CodeDom support, so enabling it for dynamic-compilation/scripting should also be easy. As an added bonus (apart from the claims of 2x the performance), it even has Visual Studio support, complete with some designers: http://www.php-compiler.net/doku.php?id=core%3aphp-in-vs2008 -Michael -Original Message- From: freeswitch-users-boun...@lists.freeswitch.org [mailto:freeswitch-users-boun...@lists.freeswitch.org] On Behalf Of William Suffill Sent: Saturday, August 08, 2009 12:34 PM To: freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] mod_php needed http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/PHP_ESL Formatting could use a bit of help just exported my working document to MediaWiki.

Damn, looks like we need to learn some formatting =D. I made some changes on that article to fix the formatting a bit, lets take care of the wiki as we care about the software :).

Re: [Freeswitch-users] mod_php needed
hi
could you provide me a simple example?
- connect with esl
- get uuid
- set a variable (e.g. codec_string=PCMA)
- answer the channel
- playback a file
the script ist called from ivrd, if i get it right
in the dialplan it's
with ivrd started as ./ivrd -h 127.0.0.1 -p
in my setup $esl->api("help") works and also $esl->sendRecv("api help")
but $esl->execute() does nothing
i use version 1.0.4pre8 if it is helpfull

Re: [Freeswitch-users] mod_php needed
A good start would probably be: example of making an inbound connection from script to FS and execute a FSAPI command, like status or show channels. example of making an inbound connection and listening for events and printing them serialized. example of an outbound socket connection where the call is answered, a variable is set then perhaps play one of the pre-installed files and hangup. That last one could be demonstrated using a native socket server or by using ivrd, a little mini forking daemon I added to listen for socket outbound calls and determine a script from channel variables and call that script assuming to use stdin/stdout as the socket. (kinda like agi's) I think that if everyone pooled their experienced together you could probably produce a wrapper that would allow you to use some of your legacy agi code with ESL, naturally you would have to change the names of the apps and a few other things but there is a lot to build on here. I left this portiion of the system where it is so that the community and how it's most commonly used will drive the direction the top layer of code takes.

Re: [Freeswitch-users] mod_php needed
i tried to
i think i tried everthing and looked closely to everything in libs/esl/php (of
course i build it and included the ESL.php file)
but i do not get the idea in complete, does i work in a client-server way or
in inbound mode like i want to (that is exactly my point)
no examples are there (i would put them in the wiki if i had one)
some simple code i would expect wot work, but i doesn't
execute("setVariable", "codec_string=PCMA");
$esl->execute("answer");
$esl->execute("sleep", "2");
$esl->execute("streamFile",
"/opt/freeswitch/sounds/en/us/callie/voicemail/8000/vm-hello");
$esl->execute("hangup", "16");
?>
can you please help me, what do i get wrong?

Re: [Freeswitch-users] mod_php needed
Did you actually use ESL with the php wrapper when you tried? You can do all those things from outbound event socket fairly easily. That mod_php you saw, never worked it was just a stub and it didn't actually ever work when the guy who added it totally disappeared, I removed it from tree. And you can still do event socket over localhost on the same box if you so choose. If you really want a mod_php it's entirely possible but it would probably cost you upwards of 5k in development costs. 2009/6/15 Christian Löschenkohl > hi > > thank you very much for your input > i can say for me that i realy tried hard to use the event socket library, > but untill now i can't use it like i used all the agi scripts or even > mod_perl now. > > what i do most - in examples, if the server get's an incomming call > > - find the right user for the number (not that easy because of did in > austria), > from database or file > - build the right dial string for the bridge application (here i miss all > the php > string functions most) > - unsing mod_php functions like setVariable, getVariable, answer, transfer, > sleep > (i don't see how to do this with the php esl) > - or i check if the number is part of a conferencing product and build the > right > conference setup > > i think this would also be possible with lua and luasql, but i developed > years with > phpagi und i'm very used to php in every kind of scripting or > how-to-get-a-solution > situation (since over 10 years now). > > for me in our setup it's also the highest goal to get the servers mostly > independent > of each other. i think nobody of our costumers should be unreachable > because a central > scripting/event server or also database server has gone away (as developers > this happens > more often as we would like it to :-)) > > do not get me wrong, freeswitch is very powerfull and in the near future it > will replace > nearly all of our asterisk servers. > > in combination with php the freeswitch plattform would be heaven for me > > i also thought Brian Fertig has some source written (as posted on > http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_php), > in combination of the mod_python rewrite (page was last modified in june > 2007). > > br > > > On 2009-06-14 01:15, Nik Middleton wrote: > > I couldn’t agree more.

Re: [Freeswitch-users] mod_php needed
hi thank you very much for your input i can say for me that i realy tried hard to use the event socket library, but untill now i can't use it like i used all the agi scripts or even mod_perl now. what i do most - in examples, if the server get's an incomming call - find the right user for the number (not that easy because of did in austria), from database or file - build the right dial string for the bridge application (here i miss all the php string functions most) - unsing mod_php functions like setVariable, getVariable, answer, transfer, sleep (i don't see how to do this with the php esl) - or i check if the number is part of a conferencing product and build the right conference setup i think this would also be possible with lua and luasql, but i developed years with phpagi und i'm very used to php in every kind of scripting or how-to-get-a-solution situation (since over 10 years now). for me in our setup it's also the highest goal to get the servers mostly independent of each other. i think nobody of our costumers should be unreachable because a central scripting/event server or also database server has gone away (as developers this happens more often as we would like it to :-)) do not get me wrong, freeswitch is very powerfull and in the near future it will replace nearly all of our asterisk servers. in combination with php the freeswitch plattform would be heaven for me i also thought Brian Fertig has some source written (as posted on http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_php), in combination of the mod_python rewrite (page was last modified in june 2007). br On 2009-06-14 01:15, Nik Middleton wrote: > I couldn’t agree more.

Re: [Freeswitch-users] mod_php needed
I couldn't agree more. We're working with a group that are developing a massive PHP based music application. They are experts in PHP and MySQL but not in VOIP/Telephony. By tuning an abstraction layer that uses PHP to communicate with the FS event socket, allows them to work on the areas they know best and not worry about the telephony side too much. We went the lua route, and don't use the dial plan at all. My view is to keep all db access and processing out of FS as much as possible. With the event socket you simply don't need to embed anything apart from the essentials. We are now processing 100,000+ call setups a day (4 hours) per server all using php scripts to drive the application. We may well ultimately use C++ instead of PHP for the event socket comms, but right now PHP does just fine.
