The stream topology (list of streams and order) is now stored with the configured PJSIP endpoints and used during the negotiation process. Media negotiation state information has been changed to be stored in a separate object. Two of these objects exist at any one time on a session. The active media state information is what was previously negotiated and the pending media state information is what the media state will become if negotiation succeeds. Streams and other state information is stored in this object using the index (or position) of each individual stream for easy lookup. The ability for a media type handler to specify a callback for writing has been added as well as the ability to add file descriptors with a callback which is invoked when data is available to be read on them. This allows media logic to live outside of the chan_pjsip module. Direct media has been changed so that only the first audio and video stream are directly connected. In the future once the RTP engine glue API has been updated to know about streams each individual stream can be directly connected as appropriate. Media negotiation itself will currently answer all the provided streams on an offer within configured limits and on an offer will use the topology created as a result of the disallow/allow codec lines. If a stream has been removed or declined we will now mark it as such within the resulting SDP. Applications can now also request that the stream topology change. If we are told to do so we will limit any provided formats to the ones configured on the endpoint and send a re-invite with the new topology. Two new configuration options have also been added to PJSIP endpoints: max_audio_streams: determines the maximum number of audio streams to offer/accept from an endpoint. Defaults to 1. max_video_streams: determines the maximum number of video streams to offer/accept from an endpoint. Defaults to 1. ASTERISK-27076 Change-Id: I8afd8dd2eb538806a39b887af0abd046266e14c7
Asterisk Database Manager
Asterisk includes optional database integration for a variety of features. The purpose of this effort is to assist in managing the database schema for Asterisk database integration.
This is implemented as a set of repositories that contain database schema migrations, using Alembic. The existing repositories include:
cdr
- Table used for Asterisk to store CDR recordsconfig
- Tables used for Asterisk realtime configurationvoicemail
- Tables used forODBC_STOARGE
of voicemail messages
Alembic uses SQLAlchemy, which has support for many databases.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This is brand new and the initial migrations are still subject to change. Only use this for testing purposes for now.
Example Usage
First, create an ini file that contains database connection details. For help with connection string details, see the SQLAlchemy docs.
$ cp config.ini.sample config.ini
... edit config.ini and change sqlalchemy.url ...
Next, bring the database up to date with the current schema.
$ alembic -c config.ini upgrade head
In the future, as additional database migrations are added, you can run alembic again to migrate the existing tables to the latest schema.
$ alembic -c config.ini upgrade head
The migrations support both upgrading and downgrading. You could go all the way back to where you started with no tables by downgrading back to the base revision.
$ alembic -c config.ini downgrade base
base
and head
are special revisions. You can refer to specific revisions
to upgrade or downgrade to, as well.
$ alembic -c config.ini upgrade 4da0c5f79a9c
Offline Mode
If you would like to just generate the SQL statements that would have been executed, you can use alembic's offline mode.
$ alembic -c config.ini upgrade head --sql
Adding Database Migrations
The best way to learn about how to add additional database migrations is to refer to the Alembic documentation.
