[asterisk-users] Authorize & Microsoft SQL

[Steve Wofford]

There is some code somewhere on the Asterisk/Linux box getting the SQL
data, be it a program, script or batch file. 

There is something initiating the T-SQL code... 

	SELECT * FROM supportcases WHERE id = 123456789

This code comes from the client, not the server. The Asterisk box will
have the database drivers (ODBC...), but that just allows a connection,
there is something that tells the server to return data (via the query).

You are going to have to write the script (middleman) and pass it on
from SQL to Asterisk. I don't know of anything like this ready-made.

1. DialPlan collect @number from caller
2. Call script, program etc and use the @number as a parameter
3. The script, program etc will the create the SQL Query to query the
database:

	SELECT COUNT(*) FROM supportcases WHERE @number = 123456789

4. The script, program etc will then get the number of rows returned,
hopefully 1 or 0 and assign it as a variable.
5. Your script, program etc with then use the following logic:

	If @variable = 0 Then
		"Play enter your case again" Voice Prompt
	ElseIf @variable = 1 Then
		Connect to Agent...

HTH,

Steve, my friends setup does not utilize perl/php code. His
communication is directly between asterisk and mysql, there is no middle
man. This is what I was hoping for with ms sql. But it doesn't sound
like that will be the case.

Thanks for everything!
Greg

This is exactly what you need. Get your friends perl/php script and the
SQL code will be near identical, or at least you will have no problem
changing it yourself even if you don't know SQL.

This much I already know. This information is easily found through a
simple google search. What I'm looking for is if anyone knows what a
dialplan would look like that would perform an ODBC query to an ODBC
database. I've seen minuet documentation on ODBCget, which is what I'm
thinking will do the trick, but as I said the documentation on this is
so vague that I'm not quite understanding it.

There's also the possibility that there is another option here that I'm
not seeing. One idea Steve gave me, was to create a perl/php script that
does the query and returns a result code. Basically acting like a middle
man between asterisk and the MS SQL database.

All you need is odbc and freetds. Then it will integrate very smoothly.
