[Freeswitch-users] where to put perl code to add cdr info

[Steven Ayre]

Too early, the call hangs up then enters the reporting stage where it will
write CDRs.

3 approaches I can think of:

- Write a perl daemon that monitors the file for filesize/mtime changes and
runs if it sees the file change. You could look at either a periodic stat
with a sleep smaller than cron allows or using inotify.
- Make the CSV a FIFO with your perl daemon at the other end (I'd be wary of
that - there's no other copy for backup and if your daemon isn't running the
FIFO can fill up and lose CDRs)
- Move to mod_xml_cdr which is actually designed for that. You can either
use your perl code as a CGI or under apache+mod_perl so you don't have to do
a complete rewrite.

I'd say mod_xml_cdr is the best approach.
