Hi, I have a question about mod_voicemail. I would like to use it independently of the dialplan and I was hoping to be able to add new voicemail accounts on-the-fly, without having to update the FreeSWITCH configuration files. But it seems to be forcing me to manually add each user to the dialplan.  

Does anybody know if mod_voicemail was made to work the way I'm trying to use it, and the best way to approach this?


Thanks,
Adam

Why would have to touch the dialplan? Just one regex to catch it all.. and send it to voicemail. You still have to add users to the directory for them to have a mailbox anyway.

I'm sorry, I said dialplan, but I was talking about the directory. 
So the directory file must be edited every time a new mailbox is created?

Either that or you feed it from something else like XML_CURL From: Adam Wilt <wiltingtree@gmail.com> Reply-To: <freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org> Date: Sat, 13 Jun 2009 14:11:06 -0400 To: <freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org> Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] mod_voicemail accounts on-the-fly I'm sorry, I said dialplan, but I was talking about the directory.  So the directory file must be edited every time a new mailbox is created?   Message: 7 Date: Sat, 13 Jun 2009 12:58:57 -0400 From: Brian West <brian@freeswitch.org> Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] mod_voicemail accounts on-the-fly To: freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org Message-ID: <F5F3AE5B-D6AD-440E-802A-360354822FC2@freeswitch.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Why would have to touch the dialplan?  Just one regex to catch it all.. and send it to voicemail.  You still have to add users to the directory for them to have a mailbox anyway. /b On Jun 13, 2009, at 12:18 PM, Adam Wilt wrote: > Hi, I have a question about mod_voicemail.

Unless you use mod_xml_curl

Thanks. I would really like mod_voicemail to be database driven, instead of by XML and cURL.
I noticed in the documentation that you can provide an ODBC handle in the voicemail.conf.xml file, and so I tried it with MySQL.
It created the two tables, voicemail_msgs and voicemail_prefs properly, and voicemail_msgs works the way I expect; when a new voicemail is created it writes a new record in this table.  But I don't understand the purpose of voicemail_prefs;  when I add a record here with a username and password, mod_voicemail ignores it. So I still have to use the config file or xml_curl to set-up the users. It doesn't seem like mod_voicemail reads from or writes to this table.

That does not provide for User configuration only voicemail metadata storage... Again, at this time you would need to use XML CURL to do what you are trying to do. There at some point in the future may be a way to grab users via direct ODBC or other database driver however at this point its not possible... Your only other possible option is via LDAP for the users From: Adam Wilt <wiltingtree@gmail.com> Reply-To: <freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org> Date: Sat, 13 Jun 2009 18:28:55 -0400 To: <freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org> Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] mod_voicemail accounts on-the-fly Thanks.

Then you're free to write your own directory hook and plug it directly
into the database how ever you wish. Look how XML_CURL uses this
interface.
