| 00:07.04 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: Fieldspec is the fields you want (such as 1-2 if you want the first two fields, or 1,3-5 if you want fields 1 and 3 through 5) |
| 00:07.07 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: Read the docs! |
| 00:14.22 | blitzrage | jsmith-brb: I did. But how do I access the contents within the fields? |
| 00:15.58 | blitzrage | I am really starting to get the feeling that Cut() is not what I want |
| 00:16.37 | blitzrage | I need the fields to be cut into different variables which I can access with variable-1, variable-2, variable-# |
| 00:17.23 | MikeJ[Jayden] | blitz, did you see the funtion stuff that hit head recently, full regex support. |
| 00:18.07 | MikeJ[Jayden] | http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=0003636 |
| 00:18.14 | blitzrage | jsmith-brb: nope, Cut() isn't at all what I want... |
| 00:18.14 | blitzrage | doh |
| 00:18.15 | MikeJ[Jayden] | does that help you? |
| 00:18.20 | blitzrage | MikeJ[Jayden]: let me look |
| 00:19.34 | blitzrage | not really... I just need something that does this: |
| 00:20.08 | blitzrage | Macro(multiexten,field&field&field&field) |
| 00:20.13 | blitzrage | then in the macro |
| 00:20.15 | blitzrage | I need to do |
| 00:20.48 | blitzrage | cut the field into multiple variables, so var1=field1, var2=field2 |
| 00:21.02 | MikeJ[Jayden] | yeah, then that should work for you... |
| 00:21.11 | blitzrage | I don't see how? |
| 00:21.18 | MikeJ[Jayden] | use regex to chop the string apart |
| 00:21.54 | MikeJ[Jayden] | ?? |
| 00:23.16 | blitzrage | I'm still not sure how I assign the various fields to a new variable.. |
| 00:23.43 | blitzrage | I hope I'm not making something simple more complicated |
| 00:26.35 | MikeJ[Jayden] | setvar |
| 00:26.49 | MikeJ[Jayden] | setvr(varname=...) |
| 00:27.16 | MikeJ[Jayden] | one sec, need to go see what the syntax stuff ended up being for the function stuff |
| 00:27.45 | MikeJ[Jayden] | or even better, if you are only using them once, don't set them as variables, just do them in line |
| 00:28.34 | blitzrage | well I'm trying to make it a macro I can reuse |
| 00:28.49 | MikeJ[Jayden] | wow.. just looked at cut.. that is really easy too... |
| 00:29.34 | blitzrage | which gets into all sorts of crazyness because I have to check if the extension being dialed is in DND or FWD mode, and if so, to not call the channel or call the FWD'd number as opposed to the supplied extension number |
| 00:29.35 | MikeJ[Jayden] | so it would be cut(var1=${ARG1],&,1) |
| 00:29.52 | blitzrage | hrmmm |
| 00:30.13 | blitzrage | cut(var${count}=${ARG1},&,${count}) |
| 00:30.26 | blitzrage | I'm in a loop while checking things |
| 00:30.40 | MikeJ[Jayden] | ummm |
| 00:30.41 | MikeJ[Jayden] | no... |
| 00:30.48 | MikeJ[Jayden] | acutally. |
| 00:31.20 | MikeJ[Jayden] | =ARG1 not =${ARG1} |
| 00:31.25 | blitzrage | right |
| 00:31.27 | blitzrage | oops :) |
| 00:31.29 | blitzrage | nice eye |
| 00:31.31 | MikeJ[Jayden] | me too.. |
| 00:32.02 | blitzrage | ok, I think that makes it a bit easier... let me go and give it a shot |
| 00:32.31 | MikeJ[Jayden] | I thought we had dynamic channel vars now... isn't that even easier |
| 00:32.38 | MikeJ[Jayden] | or are those not in yet? |
| 00:34.42 | blitzrage | dynamic channel vars? |
| 00:34.54 | blitzrage | well... not sure thats what I want here... ? |
| 00:35.27 | MikeJ[Jayden] | well.. what do you want.. |
| 00:36.24 | MikeJ[Jayden] | why not just use setvar before you go into the macro? |
| 00:36.42 | MikeJ[Jayden] | and then you don't have to parse a string in a loop in the macro |
| 00:38.09 | MikeJ[Jayden] | hey, wtf did that bit about configuring vonage softphone in * go... I can't find it anywhere |
| 00:39.14 | blitzrage | [cut-test] |
| 00:39.14 | blitzrage | exten => 4000,1,SetVar(mychan=1000&1337&5195915119) |
| 00:39.14 | blitzrage | exten => 4000,n,SetVar(count=1) |
| 00:39.14 | blitzrage | exten => 4000,n,While($[${count} <= ${FIELDQTY(mychan|&)}]) |
| 00:39.14 | blitzrage | exten => 4000,n,Cut(var${count}=mychan|&|${count}) |
| 00:39.16 | blitzrage | exten => 4000,n,NoOp(${var${count}}) |
| 00:39.19 | blitzrage | exten => 4000,n,SetVar(count=$[1 + ${count}]) |
| 00:39.22 | blitzrage | exten => 4000,n,EndWhile() |
| 00:39.24 | blitzrage | exten => 4000,n,Hangup() |
| 00:40.29 | blitzrage | but what I'm doing, I need to parse each string each time through the Macro. Basically, I need to check if the extension has set FWD or DND. If so, then I can't call that extension or I must forward it to the forwarded number. |
| 00:42.51 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: That reminds me of how I'm gonna do my dialplan. |
| 00:42.59 | MikeJ[Jayden] | where do you get if it is fwd or dnd? |
| 00:43.02 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: I'm going to store FWD, DND in a MySQL database |
| 00:43.13 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: And then use the CURL() application to pull it. |
| 00:43.48 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: So I'll do something like CURL(foo.php?extension=${EXTEN}&query=FWD) |
| 00:44.01 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: And then it'll tell me whether or not FWD is set. |
| 00:44.08 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: And then I'll do the same for DND |
| 00:45.35 | MikeJ[Jayden] | my only concern with that approach is how long it will take to do all that? |
| 00:45.44 | MikeJ[Jayden] | and what kind of load will it put on a box |
| 00:45.59 | blitzrage | MikeJ[Jayden]: its very light load stuff |
| 00:46.07 | blitzrage | MikeJ[Jayden]: takes very little time from what I can tell. |
| 00:46.22 | blitzrage | jsmith-brb: thats what I'm doing now with the AstDB |
| 00:46.31 | blitzrage | jsmith-brb: cool, same example with different methadologies |
| 00:46.56 | blitzrage | MikeJ[Jayden]: thats just the test context, not checking for FWD or DND yet |
| 00:48.10 | MikeJ[Jayden] | y... i got ya. |
| 00:48.51 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: Yeah, because I can easily update my PostgreSQL database from a website :-) |
| 00:48.56 | blitzrage | :D |
| 00:49.06 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: None of this fumbling around with "enter extension 300 to set your DND" |
| 00:49.08 | blitzrage | yah... no website needed here |
| 00:49.28 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: Yeah, I know... I've already done it with AstDB too many times. |
| 00:49.33 | jsmith-brb | blitzrage: I want it different. |

| 01:16.15 | hermie | he's 7/12 threads that got started today |
| 01:16.36 | jsmith-tired | I see... |
| 01:16.41 | hermie | but he wants some dev work |
| 01:16.46 | hermie | and he crossposted |
| 01:17.08 | jsmith-tired | And most of his problems are -users related. Asking about the FOP isn't a -dev question. |
| 01:17.40 | hermie | but what he wants is pretty easy... just use the manager interface and a little php/perl and then collect the $$$ |
| 01:19.11 | blitzrage | what I was trying to do I think I just made easier... (/me tries) |
| 01:19.47 | jsmith-tired | blitzrage: Imagine that! |
| 01:22.59 | jsmith-tired | OK, I"m going home... I'm tired and cranky... |
| 01:23.03 | jsmith-tired | Later! |
| 01:26.17 | blitzrage | actually, nevermind, I was wrong |
| 01:26.40 | blitzrage | fuck... thought I could just addd it to an existing macro, but I'm dumb because it'll only dial one extension at a time |

| 16:15.16 | MikeJ[Jayden] | morning.... |
| 16:16.51 | Zeeek | hello |
| 16:17.21 | Zeeek | I wanted to ask you guys about all the stuff that was removed from the doc |
| 16:17.25 | Zeeek | like voicemail |
| 16:17.34 | Zeeek | and the entire applications list |
| 16:18.07 | Zeeek | does this mean you don't want anything about vmail ? |
| 16:24.48 | jsmith | Zeeek: No, it just means it's being rewritten |
| 16:25.11 | jsmith | Zeeek: The stuff in the original doc (Hitchhiker's Guide to Asterisk) was a mess. |
| 16:25.38 | Zeeek | nah |
| 16:25.48 | jsmith | When we decided to split things up into different volumes, we concentrated on the first volume (install, basic channel config, and basic dialplan logic) |
| 16:25.54 | Zeeek | how can I find out what is being rewritten? |
| 16:26.02 | jsmith | By asking me :-) |
| 16:26.26 | Zeeek | I submitted an example of astdb a few moments ago |
| 16:26.34 | Zeeek | I'm pretty sure there was nothing about that |
| 16:26.48 | jsmith | I've been rather quiet about what I"m writing, as I'd rather surprise the list with a whole chapter, rather than little snippets. |
| 16:26.55 | jsmith | No, there wasn't. |
| 16:27.24 | Zeeek | ok, well my reason for submitting is that I still have a decent idea of what a newbie sees |
| 16:27.46 | Zeeek | and I know my own profile is fairly common (programming, know nothing about telephony) |
| 16:29.38 | Zeeek | what about voip providers? |
| 16:29.52 | Zeeek | I've tested a lot of them |
| 16:30.02 | Zeeek | that was dropped |
| 16:30.15 | Zeeek | yet it'd be good to have starter stuff |
| 16:32.29 | Zeeek | critch, rather than answer your message: |
| 16:32.30 | Zeeek | A small digression. A thousand pardons. You are though, playing list cop, so you added an extra word for nothing :) |
| 16:35.12 | jsmith | Sorry, I got pulled away from the computer. |
| 16:35.35 | jsmith | The list of VoIP providers changes so often that it wouldn't be a good fit for written documentation. |
| 16:35.47 | jsmith | Somebody offered to make a list on the website, but didn't follow through. |
| 16:36.30 | Zeeek | I was thinking more of have the usual few testing ones like FWD, IAXTEL. IAXTEL is mentioned in the doc anway |
| 16:36.33 | Zeeek | anyway |
| 16:38.06 | Zeeek | ok, do you have a second, then I too have stuff to do? |
