First, let me thank all of you for your input - I was looking for some sort of an API to interface with Asterisk via REST. Python, Ruby or something that we could "webify" using PHP.

Some of you suggested Asterisk 12 - I love the idea, but unfortunately, we have an Asterisk 11 install. It seems, and I could be wrong, that Asterisk 12 is a whole new 'ball game' so to speak. The big thing is pjsip - nice idea and I really like it. It looks like a bit of a learning curve and I don't want have to re-learn at this point - I will, but not right this second!  However, I have questions:


1. Is it necessary to use pjsip for Asterisk 12 as the extension.conf, sip.conf has changed gears a little. Can I backtrack to the previous SIP stack, which segways into another question:


2.  If this is possible (the above scenario) is it still possible to use these new cool features along with the previous SIP stack so that I can implement the API?


Thanks to anyone who can give me insight. I don't mean to sound lazy, but v12 seems to be so new that the information is not as plentiful as previous versions. I figured there has to be someone that was 'on the ball' with this and would be happy to share their knowledge!


Thanks again!

Oh - no kidding!

What we want to do is be able to create users, voicemail accounts and some of the basic features. Nothing fancy, I'll create the dialplan by hand of course.


So, if I understand, I can use the chan_sip, using the old ways (Asterisk 11) and the Asterisk 11 CLI commands - that is what I'm familiar with.


I can use this and still use the new AMI/API features as well as the real time database config?


I just want to be 100% clear - sometimes I need to hear an explanation a couple of times before it sinks in!


Thanks

On that note, Joshua , while I have your attention. I wanted to ask this:

Is there an available API or some other medium that can interface with Asterisk? Something that we can write, perhaps some PHP scripts and put and get commands to some API that can manage Asterisk in that way?


I also understand that there is a real time database module.


Thanks - G
