[Asterisk-Users] Manager API !!!!!!!!!

Hello all

Has anyone had any success with the Manager API ?

I am trying to check an extension status without too much luck I have
the following

<?php
    
     
      $fp = fsockopen("127.0.0.1", 5038, $errno, $errstr, 30);
      if (!$fp) {
         echo "$errstr ($errno)<br />\n";
      } else {
         $out = "Action: Login\r\n";
         $out .= "UserName: simon\r\n";
         $out .= "Secret: xxxxxx\r\n\r\n";
     
         fwrite($fp, $out);
      $in = "Action: ExtensionState\r\n";
      $in .= "Exten: 4367\r\n\r\n";
      $in .= "Context: office\r\n\r\n";  
      $in .= "ActionID: \r\n\r\n";
      $in .= "Action: Logoff\r\n\r\n";
              fwrite($fp,$in);
         while (!feof($fp)) {
             echo fgets($fp, 128);
         }
         fclose($fp);
      }
     
      ?>

The first prob is it ignores the Context and just goes to default.
The second is anyone know what ActionID is ?

Best Regards
Simon

I use this to get a list of extensions that are in use.

$socket = fsockopen("127.0.0.1","5038", $errno, $errstr,
$timeout);
fputs($socket, "Action: Login\r\n");
fputs($socket, "UserName: xxxxxxx\r\n");
fputs($socket, "Secret: xxxxxxx\r\n\r\n");
fputs($socket, "Action: command\r\n");
fputs($socket, "Command: show channels\r\n\r\n");
fputs($socket, "Action: Logoff\r\n\r\n");

while (!feof($socket)) {
$wrets = fgets($socket, 4096);
$wrets = trim($wrets);
if(substr($wrets,0,3)=="SIP"){
$m_start = strpos($wrets,'/');
$m_end = strpos($wrets,'-');
$m_ext = substr($wrets,$m_start+1,($m_end-$m_start)-1);

//do something here with the extension number

}
if(substr($wrets,0,4)=="IAX2"){
$m_start = strpos($wrets,'/');
$m_end = strpos($wrets,'@');
$m_ext = substr($wrets,$m_start+1,($m_end-$m_start)-1);

//do something here with the extension number

}
}

fclose($socket);


I think  ActionID is just an ID number for your own use.

<< Has anyone had any success with the Manager API ?>>

Yes, lots of success.  I think we found that tracking the status of an
extension is the most reliable way to monitor extension state.  We do issue
a PeerStatus request at the beginning but that's pretty time and resource
intensive.  Since the Manager is going issue status events anyway, we
monitor them and save the resources.

<< The second is anyone know what ActionID is ?>>

Yes, ActionID is a value you can use when issuing a command.  It there so
that you can be sure you respond to your own responses not to someone else's
or that you respond to an response instance in the correct way.  In a
multi-threaded app you might have several actions outstanding so you will
need to know what response corresponds to which command.

You can supply an ActionID in your request to track the response.  This
is most useful if your program gets out of sync with the management
protocol.  If you always specify and check the ActionID on the response,
you'll know that you're retrieving the correct response.

[Asterisk-Users] Manager API !!!!!!!!!

Thanks to all ,

I have now managed to get the ExtentionState to return a Status value
BUT.

It seems to always return -1 whether the phone is on a call or not. Am I
missing something ? I would have thought it should return some other
value when the line is engaged OR am I looking at completely the wrong
thing to achieve my requested task.

Could be cos I am fick

Ta
Simon
