dynamically create/remove sip users via AMI possible?

[fwoeck]

Hi, fromt what I read, I think it should be possible to create sip
users like this

[002]
encryption=yes
transport=tls
type=friend
...

on the fly via the Asterisk Manager Interface. I connected my asterisk
server and see

INFO ami: Successful AMI actions-only connection into
ahn...@127.0.0.1
INFO ami: Successful AMI events-only connection into ahn...@127.0.0.1

but don't know where to go from there.
I'd be thankful for any hint!

That is the Adhearsion process booting up and establishing the configured connections.  You will need to create some code that sends instructions to Asterisk.

The first thing you need to do is write code to tell Asterisk what to do.  Specifically, you need to tell Asterisk to update its configuration with the SIP information you pasted.  The AMI command you want is UpdateConfig and some docs on it can be found here:

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/ManagerAction_UpdateConfig

The next question: how are you wanting to trigger such an action? I'll assume you want to use a web interface to manage these settings.  If you are using Rails, I would point you to Ben Langfeld's https://github.com/benlangfeld/ahn-rails which provides helper methods for calling Adhearsion methods from Rails via DRb.

From there, you just need to tie the two pieces together.  Your UpdateConfig manager code should go into an Adhearsion Component so it can be exposed via DRb.  There is more information on getting started with Components on the Adhearsion wiki:

Take a look at those resources and let us know how it goes!

Actually, that bit about ahn-rails is a lie. It's been neglected a little. At the moment, all it provides is generators. I'll add a DRb connection in there soon.

Hi Ben, wow - that's a quick and proficient answer - thank you for
that!
Indeed we try to let our rails process mirror the frontend users as
sip users to provide them conference calls (via ConfBridge e.g.).
I'll dig into the resources you mentioned!
