\section{Asynchronous Javascript Asterisk Manger (AJAM)}
|
|
|
|
AJAM is a new technology which allows web browsers or other HTTP enabled
|
|
applications and web pages to directly access the Asterisk Manger
|
|
Interface (AMI) via HTTP. Setting up your server to process AJAM
|
|
involves a few steps:
|
|
|
|
\subsection{Setup the Asterisk HTTP server}
|
|
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item Uncomment the line "enabled=yes" in \path{/etc/asterisk/http.conf} to enable
|
|
Asterisk's builtin micro HTTP server.
|
|
|
|
\item If you want Asterisk to actually deliver simple HTML pages, CSS,
|
|
javascript, etc. you should uncomment "enablestatic=yes"
|
|
|
|
\item Adjust your "bindaddr" and "bindport" settings as appropriate for
|
|
your desired accessibility
|
|
|
|
\item Adjust your "prefix" if appropriate, which must be the beginning of
|
|
any URI on the server to match. The default is "asterisk" and the
|
|
rest of these instructions assume that value.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
\subsection{Allow Manager Access via HTTP}
|
|
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item Make sure you have both "enabled = yes" and "webenabled = yes" setup
|
|
in \path{/etc/asterisk/manager.conf}
|
|
|
|
\item You may also use "httptimeout" to set a default timeout for HTTP
|
|
connections.
|
|
|
|
\item Make sure you have a manager username/secret
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
Once those configurations are complete you can reload or restart
|
|
Asterisk and you should be able to point your web browser to specific
|
|
URI's which will allow you to access various web functions. A complete
|
|
list can be found by typing "http show status" at the Asterisk CLI.
|
|
|
|
examples:
|
|
\begin{astlisting}
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
http://localhost:8088/asterisk/manager?action=login&username=foo&secret=bar
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{astlisting}
|
|
This logs you into the manager interface's "HTML" view. Once you're
|
|
logged in, Asterisk stores a cookie on your browser (valid for the
|
|
length of httptimeout) which is used to connect to the same session.
|
|
\begin{astlisting}
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
http://localhost:8088/asterisk/rawman?action=status
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{astlisting}
|
|
Assuming you've already logged into manager, this URI will give you a
|
|
"raw" manager output for the "status" command.
|
|
\begin{astlisting}
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
http://localhost:8088/asterisk/mxml?action=status
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{astlisting}
|
|
This will give you the same status view but represented as AJAX data,
|
|
theoretically compatible with RICO (\url{http://www.openrico.org}).
|
|
\begin{astlisting}
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
http://localhost:8088/asterisk/static/ajamdemo.html
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{astlisting}
|
|
If you have enabled static content support and have done a make install,
|
|
Asterisk will serve up a demo page which presents a live, but very
|
|
basic, "astman" like interface. You can login with your username/secret
|
|
for manager and have a basic view of channels as well as transfer and
|
|
hangup calls. It's only tested in Firefox, but could probably be made
|
|
to run in other browsers as well.
|
|
|
|
A sample library (astman.js) is included to help ease the creation of
|
|
manager HTML interfaces.
|
|
|
|
Note that for the demo, there is no need for *any* external web server.
|
|
|
|
\subsection{Integration with other web servers}
|
|
|
|
Asterisk's micro HTTP server is *not* designed to replace a general
|
|
purpose web server and it is intentionally created to provide only the
|
|
minimal interfaces required. Even without the addition of an external
|
|
web server, one can use Asterisk's interfaces to implement screen pops
|
|
and similar tools pulling data from other web servers using iframes,
|
|
div's etc. If you want to integrate CGI's, databases, PHP, etc. you
|
|
will likely need to use a more traditional web server like Apache and
|
|
link in your Asterisk micro HTTP server with something like this:
|
|
\begin{astlisting}
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
ProxyPass /asterisk http://localhost:8088/asterisk
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{astlisting}
|
