<p class=MsoNormal>Hi.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I‘d like to get access to the CDR‘s generated by
Asterisk (1.4) in real-time from a remote connection coming in on TCP.
Basically what I have is a Windows application that is used to process
incoming, outgoing and missed call records putting them into a database for
some analysing etc. This app can connect to a TCP server and read from this
connection the CDR‘s as they are coming in (being generated).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I can‘t find this as a „feature“ of the
standard Asterisk... but maybe I‘m missing something? The closest I could
get is something around the manager api but it‘s not really what I‘m
after. I‘d like to access the CDR‘s them selves.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Being a (more or less) novice Linux user the only thing I
can think of is trying to do this using Perl scripts where it would set up a
listening socket and when connection is received it would do something like (in
princip, not managed to do this properly yet):<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>...<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>print $connection `tail –f /var/log/asterisk/cdr-custom/Master.csv`<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>...<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>But even this is full of issues to solve. Things like only
one connection at a time (which I can live with) from the remote computer. The
fact that tail will not write to the socket (yeah, a major issue probably)
which I‘m thinking of trying to solve by reading line by line somehow and
writing back to the socket... not even sure if this is possible.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>So basically I‘m hoping someone has a nice solution
for this. With or witout scripting, external programs of some sort (runnin
ubuntu 7.04 or 6.06) or whatever works. I‘d really appreciate your input
here.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Sincerely, Baldvin<o:p></o:p></p>
