anyone has any idea how to set up an agi server ??

Hy my friend,
before setting up Agi server, you should choose your language programming,
you can use agi commnd on many manguages like C,JAVA,PHP,Perl,Rubby & ...
I prefer PHP for small programs and JAVA for huge ones,


Good jobB)

I used php and found phpagi-fastagi. However, input/output from stdin and stdout are not passed. Looking at phpagi-fastagi, shouldn't the socket be passed to the NEW AGI (3rd parameter in the constructor)?? But where is the socket defined in phpagi-fastagi??

After having looked at various FastAGI offerings , I had decided I really did not care for any of them.

Being as I can just as easily create daemons in C++ or PHP, I had a choice to make.
For ease of development I elected to create a generic PHP daemon that would
allow me to dynamically load PHP scripts via the dial plan.

This makes development really easy as I can simply edit,save and dial, vs. any kind of
compiling or restarting after an edit to a particular PHP script.

When a script is called it is passed a reference to a PHP object containing all the
information passed by asterisk as well as interfaces to both AGI and AMI resources, and
soon a MySql reference as well so a script has everything it needs in a nice thin interface.

I've posted the code for it at google projects. code.google.com/p/fastagi-php-drclue/

There is also a WIKI with documentation on installation, class methods and such along with
a couple of example scripts.

The FastAGI.php script even has a command line option that will generate the init.d
script so that the FastAGI.php daemon will start at boot.


Enjoy!!!

nice dr. clue

Thanks a lot for sharing your code

Thanks drclue,
that was nice,
I hope we can more references in this forum,

Thanks again:kiss:

Excellent. Got my fastagi server running after fixing one bug in class.daemon.inc

I have a question regarding calling phpagi inside a Fastagi script.

I have 2 asterisk servers. Server A handles incoming call, server B handles some other phone lines.

my senerio is

1. caller calls into server A
2. server A invokes a fastagi script on serevr B, passing some info to it
3. server B will then make a phone call using the phone lines attached to itself (server
4. server B will pass the result back to server A
5. server A will then continue with the dial plan

Can anyone tell me if I can use phpagi inside a Fastagi script? It seems to hang with the "New" instance.

Firstly , if there was an error that you corrected , please let me know
so that I can fix it in the main code for everyone.


As to contacting the instance of asterisk on server B,
from the FastAGI plugin ,I guess I would for a down and dirty fix, issue
a an AMI logout command.

$oDaemon->AMIcommand("logout")

Then I would adjust the $oDaemon member variables $szAMIusername,$szAMIsecret,
$iAMIserverPort, and $iAMIserverHost as needed and call $oDaemon->AMIlogin()
to connect to server B's AMI interface to place the call.

Thanks for the advice.

The error is in calss.daemon.inc

a slash is missing in start()

nohup .$szEXE start > /dev/null &

should be

nohup ./$szEXE start > /dev/null &

Thanks for pointing out the typo in the init.d script generation.
The error should be corrected now and present in the downloads section
of code.google.com/p/fastagi-php-drclue/
