pyst: A Python Interface to Asterisk
|
||
|
|
====================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Pyst consists of a set of interfaces and libraries to allow programming of
|
||
|
|
Asterisk from python. The library currently supports AGI, AMI, and the parsing
|
||
|
|
of Asterisk configuration files. The library also includes debugging facilities
|
||
|
|
for AGI.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Installation is the standard python install::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
tar xvf pyst.tar.gz
|
||
|
|
cd pyst
|
||
|
|
python setup.py install --prefix=/usr/local
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Documentation is currently only in python docstrings, you can use
|
||
|
|
pythons built-in help facility::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
import asterisk
|
||
|
|
help (asterisk)
|
||
|
|
import asterisk.agi
|
||
|
|
help (asterisk.agi)
|
||
|
|
import asterisk.manager
|
||
|
|
help (asterisk.manager)
|
||
|
|
import asterisk.config
|
||
|
|
help (asterisk.config)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|

Things to do for pyst
|
||
|
|
---------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* ChangeLog:
|
||
|
|
The ChangeLog needs to be updated from the monotone logs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Documentation:
|
||
|
|
All of pyst's inline documentation needs to be updated.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* manager.py:
|
||
|
|
This should be convereted to be single threaded. Also there is a race
|
||
|
|
condition when a user calls manager.logoff() followed by
|
||
|
|
manager.close(). The close() function may still call logoff again if
|
||
|
|
the socket thread has not yet cleared the _connected flag.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A class should be made for each manager action rather than having a
|
||
|
|
function in a manager class. The manager class should be adapted to
|
||
|
|
have a send method that know the general format of the classes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Upgrading from older versions
|
||
|
|
-----------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If upgrading from...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* 0.2: Should work out of the box
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* 0.1.0:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- agi.get_variable no longer throws an exception, instead it returns an
|
||
|
|
empty string when a channel variable is not set.
|
||
|
|
- manager.quit() has be renamed to manager.close()
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Changes
|
||
|
|
-------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 0.3: Minor feature enhancements
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The parsing of answers from asterisk was completely rewritten. This
|
||
|
|
should fix problems people were having with commands returning embedded
|
||
|
|
'/' or empty lines.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Add playdtmf manager command
|
||
|
|
- rewritten manager communication
|
||
|
|
- should no longer choke on '/' in answers returned from a manager
|
||
|
|
command (fixes SF Bug 2947866)
|
||
|
|
- should now correctly parse multi-line output with embedded empty
|
||
|
|
lines
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
