[asterisk-users] Asterisk API

[Jacob.E.Miles at L-3Com.com]

Yes, this would most likely be a better solution (REST API is in
Asterisk 12), just be careful about putting your dialplan in a Real Time
Database.  You sometimes have to do things a little different if your
dialplan is in the RTDB.  As well you need to make sure security is
locked down when using this approach, but security is needed for all
approaches.

Good Day, Ishfaq;

 

This may be a much better idea than the REST API. 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the concept is this:

 

You write to the database, and this gives the same result as perhaps
modifying the dialplan, sip, voicemail, etc *without* having to
physically modify the extensions.conf, sip.conf, voicemail.conf?

 

Am I on the right track?

 

Thanks!

Hello Folks;

 

I have an Asterisk server 

Asterisk 11.7.0 built by root @xxxxxxxxxxx on a x86_64 running Linux on
2013-12-27 18:47:44 UTC

 

No FreePBX, no AsteriskNOW, no Elastix. Just Asterisk.

 

Is there an API out there that anyone knows of that I can pass commands,
etc to Asterisk? Creating Extensions, adding voicemail users, setting up
voicemail, etc?

 

I'm kind of clueless. Is there something available?

 

Thanks - Glen

 

 

You could use asterisk realtime architecture and use your favourite
database to hold peer/voicemail/dialplan configuration.
