I'm looking into the dialplan specifics:
tleilax:~ #
tleilax:~ # cat /etc/asterisk/extensions.conf
[general]
static=yes
writeprotect=no
[globals]
CONSOLE=Console/dsp ; Console interface for
demo
TRUNK=DAHDI/r1 ; Trunk interface
TRUNKX=DAHDI/r2 ; 2nd trunk interface
TRUNKIAX=IAX2/ASTtest1:test at 10.10.10.16:4569 ; IAX trunk interface
TRUNKIAX1=IAX2/ASTtest1:test at 10.10.10.16:4569 ; IAX trunk interface
TRUNKBINFONE=IAX2/1112223333:PASSWORD at iax.binfone.com ; IAX trunk
interface
SIPtrunk=SIP/1234:PASSWORD at sip.provider.net ; SIP trunk
#include extensions-vicidial.conf
Firstly, what language or format is this? Bash script?
the line "#include ..." what is this called? An include statement?
The "[globals]" -- what's the terminology for this? It's a
context? And
a context is a logical separation in the dialplan? Is that, in any way,
analogous to a function or method?
Once you create your this logical separation, what's the syntax
surrounding invoking a specific context? For example:
tleilax:~ #
tleilax:~ # tail /etc/asterisk/extensions-vicidial.conf
[vicidial-auto]
exten => h,1,AGI(agi://127.0.0.1:4577/call_log--HVcauses--PRI-----
NODEBUG-----${HANGUPCAUSE}-----${DIALSTATUS}-----${DIALEDTIME}-----
${ANSWEREDTIME})
include => vicidial-auto-internal
include => vicidial-auto-phones
include => vicidial-auto-external
; END OF FILE Last Forced System Reload: 2015-02-20 16:49:28
tleilax:~ #
when the above contexts are included, these contexts are declared within
the extensions-vicidial.conf, meaning that when they're declared,
they're
not actually used/invoked/called **until** the actual "include =>
foo"
syntax?
