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 ?

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.

How do I stop loading extensions.ael dial plan? I'm only using extension.conf. -- Joseph

p 176 has exten => 1NXXNXXXXXXX,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN}@myprovider) how is "exten" distinct from "EXTEN"? What is this line of code doing? https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Standard+Channel+Variables says that EXTEN is the current extension. In ruby, you this: H = Hash["a" => 100, "b" => 200] The => is a mapping, or at least

Hello I'm using an AGI script in Lua to make a callback through Zaptel. For this to work, I must wait until the channel is idle, or I get this kind of error, even after waiting over 10 seconds after the remote end rings once and hangs up: ============== channel.c:2863 __ast_request_and_dial: Unable to request channel Zap/1/123456 pbx_spool.c:341 attempt_thread: Call failed to go through,

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

Hello, I have a fairly standard call center. I'm running 1.4.23.1. I am trying to get a mechanism where : 1- Employee A can have the phone at his desk ring when a call comes in the queue 2- When already on a call, employee A does not hear a "beep" in his phone because another call is trying to come in It's fairly simple. I tried a few different things: in queues.conf [559]

I have an application that needs to vary the menu choices available based upon the availability of an external resource at a given time. What I have in mind is a system that can uplink a user to one of many different satellites. Due to the nature of orbital mechanics a satellite may be out of range at any given time. I only want to present a menu of available satellites. I can query an

Hello, I would like to receive some suggestions about dialplans written in lua, actually my dialplan is written in ael, but i'm having some problems with it. I noticed that asterisk just translates ael to the old extension language, does it do the same with lua? Thanks -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hello I'm learning how to work with Asterisk on an embedded system (MMU-less Blackfin processor, 64MB RAM and 256MB NAND), and was wondering what people use as scripting language to handle calls through the dialplan and AGI, considering the hardware limitations? Ideally, I'd rather use a rich language like PHP or Python, but can those be fit with even their common modules into such small

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()

Hello No matter what I try, Asterisk still fails dialing back through a callfile built through an AGI script. The whole thing works fine when the original call that triggers Asterisk is from an internal extension (Xlite), but it fails when it's from my cellphone ringing through the FXO/Zaptel port and I want to wait a few seconds and call back through the FXO/Zaptel. Could it that even

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, I am wondering, if there is any tool available, which performs a check for suspicious entries in the dialplan. For example a non existing AGI-Script or a double assigned extension ike that: [context] exten => *100*,1,AGI(test_app.pl) ... exten => 190,1,Answer() ... exten => *100*,1,AGI(never_reached.pl) ... A "normal dialplan reload command" would echo no warning or

Hi, I'm sure this topic has been discussed before but i'm having trouble finding a simple answer. Whats the easiest way of sending an email from Asterisk? I want to set up a warning so that after a Dial cmd, if the DIALSTATUS is CHANUNAVAIL, Asterisk sends an email to the admin to check the voip phone is connected properly. I've got the dial plan set up, I just dont know what

Hello, We are going to start development for a product based over Asterisk. According to you, which is the preferred language for AGIs / IVRs development in Asterisk.

Hi, When I was testing an IVR, I realized I miss a function I would call GotoIfTimeWithOffset. Today, this IVR is using function AEL GotoIfTime in several places. The problem is if it's 11pm at the moment I'm testing this IVR, I can't nicely test the 9am or 2pm branch. GotoIfTimeWithOffset would get 2 incoming arguments : - the first is a time range (just like GotoIfTime), - the

with the slip of a finger, i destroyed by extensions.conf (grep -i > extensions.conf) I have a backup that is dozens of hours of code old. is there a way i can use the asterisk cli (or some other asterisky method) to recreate that extensions.conf ?

Hi All Has anyone used Asterisk for a Call Center operation? What I mean is: given a list of phone numbers, can Asterisk dial each number, play a message and accept some DTMF? I ask because I am an employee of a non-profit company based in San Diego, CA. I already evaluated Voicent and Voxeo. The former has expensive licensing terms and the latter is not best suited for a call center. I would

I'm presently working on a project to build a scheduling system accessible by both web and phone. on the web side one can query what items are available when by using the time or the item as a key then reserve for an available time slot. reservations may also be modified by the user that made them or an admin. Where may I find examples of doing similar things with asterisk? all I've
