Announcing mod_easyroute
Greetings! I would like to announce the inclusion of mod_easyroute in FreeSwitch. mod_easyroute is a DID routing engine that uses an ODBC data source to figure out where to route calls. It uses a gateway concept and a number concept with a relation of one gateway to many numbers. Numbers are looked up in the database and a dial string and other useful information is returned into channel variables including a full dial string that can be passed to the bridge function for sending the call out. This module is not really targeted at the PBX user but at the ITSP community as an example of what can be done in C using the ODBC extensions built into the FreeSwitch core. See http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_easyroute or http://www.freeswitch.org/node/158 for more information. Please note: if you are wanting to play with mod_easyroute, please ensure you have FreeSwitch compiled with ODBC support enabled (see http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Using_ODBC_in_the_core for ODBC setup information) If you are wondering why I would release such a thing, I have had this code sitting around for a bit now, a friend of mine needed the ability to route DIDs to different SIP based Application Servers for his business, so I wrote this for him, over the course of the past several months several people have approached me needing something similar and I re-used this code a few times for various consulting projects. A few weeks ago one of the guys in the IRC channel mentions he was about to write something like this for one of his clients, I mentioned I had this and he offered to "bounty" this functionality if I would release it. So here it is guys have at it. Thanks to the guys that sent me a few bucks for this code! Now to get a quick plug in for myself. I'm a consultant that works mainly with ITSPs and VoIP related projects, If you find yourself in need of some professional services to assist you in customizing or deploying FreeSwitch for your business, drop me an email off list and I will get back to you. With the growth that's happened with FreeSwitch up til now, I can't wait to see what 2009 will bring! Ken Rice Krice <at> rmktek <dot> com Ken4VoIP AIM
Looks like a solid contribution as always Ken. I agree it should be an interesting year with the way things are shaping up. Glad to see someone pointing out how to get ODBC to work. =) Where was all this info a few hours ago? Oh well one way to learn I guess. Thanks again Ken. -- William
this is a killer most likely for sw billing developers. another breakthrough... On Wed, Jan 14, 2009 at 10:52 AM, William Suffill <william.suffill@gmail.com
