Kurtis, Which protocol will this chat/sms dialplan be compliant with ?. Sip MESSAGE method , SIMPLE and XMPP are both widely adopted. It would be great to add support for connectivity to external domains such as Gtalk, Yahoo Messenger etc. Cheers, AH -----Original Message----- From: freeswitch-dev-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org [mailto:freeswitch-dev-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org] On Behalf Of Kurtis Heimerl Sent: Monday, July 04, 2011 12:50 AM To: freeswitch-dev@lists.freeswitch.org Subject: [Freeswitch-dev] Chat Dialplan Hello Freeswitch-dev! I've recently begin modifying Sofia to support a chat "dialplan", very similar to the voice dialplan. Basically, a chat/sms will come in at a certain number/address and be routed via the dialplan. My current plan for doing this is as follows: 1) Add message events to sofia: I want sofia (and eventually all chat clients) to send message events through FS's event framework when an event arrives. 2) Remove message routing from Sofia: Sofia should not be routing messages itself. Instead, it should just generate the event saying a message has arrived and someone else should do the routing (namely my dialplan) 3) Implement a simple chat dialplan module that listens for message events and routes them according to an XML dialplan. I have some questions for the FS developer community. First, building my own module is conceptually simple. Modifying Sofia is not. What's the best way to go about making these changes? I could submit extension tickets (e.g., a configuration variable that adds messages and one that removes routing), or submit patches, or both. I think this could be broadly useful, and I want to try to contribute to the community. Secondly, I'm having a little difficulty finding the place where messages are routed in sofia. That's probably the place to insert both 1 & 2. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks! _______________________________________________ Join us at ClueCon 2011, Aug 9-11, Chicago http://www.cluecon.com 877-7-4ACLUE FreeSWITCH-dev mailing list FreeSWITCH-dev@lists.freeswitch.org http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/freeswitch-dev UNSUBSCRIBE:http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/options/freeswitch-dev http://www.freeswitch.org
