We have both an asterisk server and a jabber server (ejabberd), Since we use mostly softphones, using call notification by jabber wouldn't be very useful, but beeing able to notify *others* that we are on the phone should be more usefull. Anyone already did that (changing jabber status/ status message of many accounts) or know if it's even remotly possible ?? -- Benoit -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I'd be interested to know more about the status abilities as well, we've tried to test jabberstatus application, but it doesn't seem to function as we expect, it should be returning 0,1,2,3,4,5 based on users current status, but switching to away doesn't seem to change it from 0 to 2 .. . this could be an interesting thread :) 2008/6/3 Benoit Plessis <benoit at plessis.info>:> > We have both an asterisk server and a jabber server (ejabberd), > Since we use mostly softphones, using call notification by jabber wouldn't > be very useful, but beeing able to notify *others* that we are on the phone > should be more usefull. > > Anyone already did that (changing jabber status/ status message of many > accounts) > or know if it's even remotly possible ?? > > -- > Benoit > > > _______________________________________________ > -- 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 >-- Thanks, Matt Gibson http://www.voipphreak.ca http://www.mattgibson.ca -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It connects to the AMI and watches for call/hangup type events, so other than adding an entry to manager.conf there is nothing special required of Asterisk to make it work. We're using it here and so far it's working fine. -James
Hi Benoit,> Anyone already did that (changing jabber status/ status message of many > accounts) > or know if it's even remotly possible ??We discussed that during the last XSF devcon in Brussels. Actually Asterisk (or any other XMPP client) cannot change the Jabber status on behalf of another Jabber user, even if you connect it as a component to your XMPP server. This behaviour is forbidden by the XMPP specs. To be able to do this, you can use OpenFire along with its Asterisk plugin, or patch your own XMPP server. I had written a patch for Jabberd2 some time ago, but I'm not aware of anything that would be applicable to Ejabberd (written in Erlang). I'm in the process of extending Asterisk's "Hints" dialplan to XMPP notifications for authorized users. Those notifications would be carried over XMPP as message stanza of type 'headline'. That will be a first step toward implementing PEP (Personal Eventing via Pubsub). Although I understand that this won't answer your specific need, I thought you might be interested in knowing this. I can build a private branch to make this code available if you're interested in testing it. Philippe
