AsterBunny
==========

[](#asterbunny)

Simple PHP based CLI tool to publish Asterisk AMI events to a Rabbit Message Queue

PHP Versions
------------

[](#php-versions)

Note: PAMI Requires PHP 5.3+. PHP versions 5.3.9 and 5.3.10 WILL NOT WORK due to a bug introduced in stream\_get\_line() in 5.3.9. Please use 5.3.11+ or up to 5.3.8 (see [README.PHP-5.3.9-and-5.3.10](https://github.com/marcelog/PAMI/blob/1.70.0/README.PHP-5.3.9-and-5.3.10)).

Install
=======

[](#install)

Clone the repo:

```
git clone https://github.com/opensoft/AsterBunny.git
```

Now install dependencies with composer

```
curl http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
php composer.phar install
```

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

The CLI tool is located at `bin/asterbunny` and has a lot of configuration options relating to specifying hostnames, ports, usernames, and passwords for Asterisk connections and RabbitMQ servers.

It's recommended to run the following to learn the configuration set, and defaults

```
./bin/asterbunny listen --help
```

Message Sending
===============

[](#message-sending)

All asterisk events emitted by the Asterisk AMI interface are encoded as JSON and then sent to a configured RabbitMQ server.

Specifically,  are:

1. Keys are converted to lowercase
2. The message is converted to JSON

And then submitted to the configured exchange with the `fanout` exchange type

#### Example

[](#example)

```
{
    "event": "Agentlogoff",
    "agent": "",
    "logintime": "",
    "uniqueid": ""
}
```

Message headers are as follows:

- `timestamp` => The unix timestamp of when the event occured as seen by AsterBunny
- `content_type` => `application\json`
- `delivery_mode` => `2` - Indicates that the message should be persisted by RabbitMQ

Logging
=======

[](#logging)

A default log4php configuration file is included with this tool.

```
$ cp log4php.dist.xml log4php.xml

```

Configure logging by editing the file according to instructions found [here](http://logging.apache.org/log4php/docs/configuration.html)

- PHP 5.3
- RabbitMQ
- Asterisk AMI
