Sort of silly?, I am not sure what you are talking about. I t's called *event*Consumer right? what do you mean by event based? There is no need to create a session? con = freeswitch.EventConsumer("all"); now you have a consumer obj every time you call con:pop() with no arg you will either get an event or nil when there are no events to consume. every time you call con:pop(1) the consumer object will block until there is an event. So you use the first way in conjunction with some other lock to do async or the 2nd way you do a dedicated blocking loop. I don't know what you said in #lua but, umm duhhhh I think we have an event driven programming under control..... We have a dedicated eventing engine in the core with scaling backend dispatcher threads that can handle hundereds of thousand of events at a time. There is also Event Socket (the word *event* again) that can connect to tcp and listen for *events* you can also write your code in C with the trivial module API that allows you to bind to an event internally and pretty much do whatever you want. 2009/3/27 Matthew Fong <mattdfong@gmail.com>
I've been playing around with using freeswitch.EventConsumer in a lua process that starts-up when FS boots, and stays in the background. I've setup the example on the wiki, but the example uses session:execute("sleep",1000), and essentially loops every second until an event is fired. I'm wondering if there is a more event-driven way to accomplish this? I tried asking for help in #lua, but they said the project (FS) needed to implement event-driven programming for this to work. To me, it seems sort of silly to implement freeswitch.EventConsumer without a way for it to be executed event-wise
Is using lua ESL the only option? There isn't any lua example scripts in libs/esl/lua to demonstrate how to handle events.
if mod_lua can't handle events, can the mod_javascript utilize it? Thanks.
