[asterisk-users] A manager event whenever an hint value changes

[Danny Nicholas]

I think you are introducing new issues and overhead to accomplish a simple
task;  If you do your "core show hints" every 5 seconds and store this into
an array in C/PHP/PERL/etc, then compare it, you are using what it there
already.  I can see where it might be a pain to pore through 200 hints and
determine which ones have changed, but adding a new AMI event would (1) add
more overhead to the AMI task and (2) be asking to break when this feature
moves into the next release of Asterisk.

Would ExtensionStatus provide the data your looking for?

 

Event: ExtensionStatus

Privilege: call,all

Exten: 216

Context: ext-local

Hint: SIP/216

Status: 0


Yes and no : what I'm after is to open an AMI connection with an Asterisk
server and simply "read" HintHasChanged events.
The ExtensionStatus event shown above is the reply to an ExtensionStatus
request and I don't want to send any request at all (I could also send a
"core show hint" one every 5 seconds or so).

Hi,

I would like to receive an AMI event whenever an hint value changes.

If I'm not mistaken, this is not possible at the moment (you must query
current hints status and parse response), right ?
Would you appreciate this feature ?
I would see it as cheap way to mimic BLF status on a desktop application.

Regards
