Setting up Jasmin

[Bigesta]

Hello

I am very new to this and i am hoping someone could help me understand just whats needs to be done in setting jasmin up. 

I just want to familiarize myself with jasmin. I have installed Linux ubuntu 14,04 as a virtual machine, the host OS being windows 7 64bit. I have a 3G modem that i have installed on windows. 

I want to be able to send and receive sms. How do i go about setting this up. I tried reading the documentation and its still a little too advanced for me at the moment. I would appreciate if someone could guide me on what to do or atleast explain it to me in very simple terms

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

Jasminsms is not intended to be used with such scenario,

moreover jasminsms will never support serial interfaces directly

There is android app in development which will allow to use android phone for use cases such as yours

but there is no ETA yet

Ok.. Thank you for the response. What about if lets say i want to develop an app that a user can send an sms as a query to a database and then the system gives out an automatic reply with the results. How would i go about that?

you will need number to receive sms

via smpp from service provider

via http from service provider

custom way(gsm gateway, or 3g modem and some custom development)

first 2 use cases is for jasminsms

third one is depends one your project 

once you have jasmin in place, you can route incoming sms to your app(take a look a http api for jasmin) 

once you processed input and have response, you can send it back via jasminsms http api,

and it will go to service provider and then to subscriber, or any other way that you used

Thank you. Thats a lot better. I think i can now look at the documentation again.

You'll need to get a sms number with some provider to receive inbound messages in your country/region.

You can contact sa...@jookies.net for getting one.
