Question about the future of mod_nibblebill
Hi all, I'm thinking about a development of a custom prepaid application based on mod_nibblebill (that is very interesting). I'm wondering about the status and the future of this module in order to understand if this is the better way to achieve the aim of the project. I have seen in the mod_nibblebill source code this notes: * TODO: Fix what happens when the DB is not available * TODO: Fix what happens when the DB queries fail (right now, all are acting like success) * TODO: Add buffering abilities * TODO: Make error handling for database, such that when the database is down (or not installed) we just log to a text file * FUTURE: Possibly make the hooks not tied per-channel, and instead just do this as a supervision style application with one thread that watches all calls Does the developers think to continue supporting the module (not only bugfix but new features)? I'm sorry for the particular question but I wouldn't do errors at this stage of the project. Best Regards,
The author of this module (Darren Schreiber) uses it quite a bit, as do a number of community members. I believe it is a "safe" module to use for your project. It is still actively maintained. You can open tickets at jira.freeswitch.org for mod_nibblebill and assign them to Darren and he'll see them and respond. He's a little slow but only because his plate is full. ;) -MC On Tue, Jan 17, 2012 at 12:05 AM, Carlo Dimaggio <jaasmailing@gmail.com>wrote:

Good, just wondering if there is a roadmap... Why not include information in the wiki about the developers and status of the modules, similarly to *ser projects? (ex. mantained/unmantained, alpha/beta/stable) (OT) Does anyone have used mod_nibblebill to handle prepaid promotions (first 100 free minutes, than another tariff)?

vBilling has a mod_nibble equivalent written in PHP. Just < 200 lines. Will discuss in Wednesday's conference call on 25th. Muhammad On Wed, Jan 18, 2012 at 3:02 PM, Carlo Dimaggio <jaasmailing@gmail.com> wrote:

I can not use vBilling after long time investment, it is useless. I don't see CDR data and any other details. There is no documentation as well. --- On Wed, 1/18/12, Muhammad Naseer Bhatti <nbhatti@gmail.com> wrote: From: Muhammad Naseer Bhatti <nbhatti@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] Question about the future of mod_nibblebill To: "FreeSWITCH Users Help" <freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org> Date: Wednesday, January 18, 2012, 2:09 PM vBilling has a mod_nibble equivalent written in PHP.
