similar to: AEL x LUA

Hello, Reading through the Wiki: "Asterisk supports the ability to write dialplan instructions in the Lua programming language. This method can be used as an alternative to or in combination with extensions.conf and/or AEL. PBX lua allows users to use the full power of lua to develop telephony applications using Asterisk" My question is, what is the benefit of using Lua? I recently

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi I have searched a bit for information regarding the status on the dialplan in lua (pbx_lua.so). I know that 'hint' won't work and has to be put in the regular extensions.conf/ael. Are there any other considerations? Features that are not implemented, or known stability issues? Thanks, Tommy Botten Jensen -----BEGIN PGP

Hello, How does extensions.lua compares to extensions.conf or extensions.ael on stability, performance and features ? Would you recommand extensions.lua as an easy/easier way to access memcached, redis or equivalent ? Thoughs ? Comments ?

Almost two years ago, a change between how AEL code is built into Asterisk dialplan between minor versions made clear the need to provide a sane entry point into AEL subroutines and that's how AELSub() born. With Asterisk 11 release, they way [stdexten] at extensions.conf is invoked changed from Macro to Gosub using the 'missing context feature' and this caused that any stdexten

How does one go about accessing gosub arguments from Asterisk in extensions.lua? For example, I have the following in extensions.conf: exten => 1000,1,Wait(1) exten => 1000,n,Gosub(functions,mytest,1("123")) exten => 1000,n,Hangup And then the following in extensions.lua: extensions = { functions = { ["mytest"] = function()

Please could someone advise good manual for using lua for asterisk dialplan. There is not much docu about it. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/attachments/20110218/42642787/attachment.htm>

Hi all, I built my first asterisk using the traditional (?) .conf files and constructs. I recall reading books at the time about AEL but it seemed "new" and untested so I left it alone. Now, I'm interested to poll the audience here to see if I should look into using AEL instead (or in addition to) for future work. TIA

Hello I'm taking a look at how to write scripts to be called from the dialplan, and saw pbx_lua mentioned. I'd like to know more about this feature, such as what the difference is with just calling the Lua interpreter through AGI (same difference as between php-cgi and mod_php?), whether it's production-ready, etc. Thank you for any help.

Hi! All the AEL examples have a semicolon after the closing curly bracket, e.g: context test { 1 => Hangup(); }; but without ; it works fine too, e.g: context test { 1 => Hangup(); } So - what is the reason for the ; after the closing curly bracket? thanks klaus

I'm trying to clarify my understand of gosub, macros and AEL. My understanding is that macros using the Macro() application, which is defined in extensions.conf by: [macro-foo] ... and called in extensions.conf with exten => _9NXXNXXXXXX.,n,Macro(fastbusy) is deprecated in favour of Gosub(). True so far? But then there are "macro"s defined in extensions.ael: macro foo() {

"show dialplan" keeps showing contexts created by AEL. I tried deleting /etc/asterisk/extensions.ael but kept getting these messages in the Asterisk log: Feb 14 21:39:53 WARNING[6074] pbx_ael.c: Unable to open '/etc/asterisk/extensions.ael': No such file or directory Feb 14 21:39:53 WARNING[6074] pbx.c: Requested contexts didn't get merged Is there any way to delete or

Hi All, Asterisk 1.4.12 on CentOS 5 Sorry for a question that I'm guessing is obvious to most of you. I'm trying to revamp my dialplan. When I first created it, I had something like: exten => s,1,Set(CALLERID(name)=${DB(cidname/${CALLERID(num)})}) exten => s,2,Dial(${rgMain},${RINGTIME},t) exten => s,3,VoiceMail(main at default) exten => s,103,VoiceMail(main at default)

Sorry, I forget to tell I tried, but not works. *Context:* context ivr_temp2 { s => { Proceeding(); str_time_01 = '06:00-12:00|*|*|*'; // Manh? ifTime (${str_time_01}) { Playback(ura/bom_dia); } } } The error is showed on "ael reload". *Console errors:* rs0000sr304*CLI> ael reload Command 'ael reload' failed.

Hi all, i need to know whether we can use ael and extensions.conf togather. i mean can we switch between contexts,extensions and priorities which are in present in both? can 2 context be named same in extensions.conf and extensions.ael? -- Regards Rizwan Hisham Software Engineer -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi List, When doing 'ael reload' on two servers, which are setup with asterisk 1.4.22 and 1.4.35 respectively, I am getting multiple lines of this strange error: ERROR[15483]: ael.flex:647 ael_yylex: Unhandled char(s): On three other servers with same versions of asterisk, i.e. 1.4.22, I don't see this error. Number of lines of the error are the same as the number of lines of the

I have two offices sharing a phone system. They also share a common internal context because all of the employees of the second office also work for the first office. Each office has 4 outside lines and I have defined 2 channel groups in my zapata.conf. The second office needs all of their outgoing calls to go out over their lines so the people they call will have the correct callerID. I

Hi, How can you use Dial application M(x) option from extensions.ael ? (As a reminder, this M(x) executes macro x when Dial called party answers). It seems to me that asterisk keeps looking for this macro in extensions.conf and not in extensions.ael. I tried both (and variations of those with ^ instead of ,) : Dial(Local/${EXTEN:1},,M(mymacro(${EXTEN}));

Hello, It seems /* */ comments are not supported in ael.vim (which brings AEL syntax-highlighting to vim). Is it hard to add this feature and have uploaded in vim extensions downloading site ?

How do I include a file (not a context) in AEL? #include "filename" returns an error. Thanks, Jay
