NAME

Asterisk::config - the Asterisk config read and write module.

SYNOPSIS

    use Asterisk::config;

    my $sip_conf = new Asterisk::config(file=>'/etc/asterisk/sip.conf');
    my $conference = new Asterisk::config(file=>'/etc/asterisk/meetme.conf',
                                              keep_resource_array=>0);

    $allow = $sip_conf->fetch_values_arrayref(section=>'general',key=>'allow');
    print $allow->[0];

    $sip_conf->assign_append(point=>'down',data=>"[userb]\ntype=friend\n");

    $sip_conf->save();

DESCRIPTION

Asterisk::config can parse and saving data with Asterisk config files. this module support asterisk 1.0 1.2 1.4 1.6, and it also support Zaptel config files.

Note

Version 0.9 syntax incompitable with 0.8.

CLASS METHOD

new

    $sip_conf = new Asterisk::config(file=>'file name',
                                     [stream_data=>$string],
                                     [object variable]);

Instantiates a new object of file. read data from stream_data or file.

OBJECT VARIABLE

file

config file name and path. if file no exists (exp. data from stream_data ) you can't saving by save_file.

keep_resource_array

use resource array when save make fast than open file, but need more memory, default enabled. use set_objvar to change it.

reload_when_save

when save done, auto call .

default enable. use set_variable to change it.

clean_when_reload

when reload done, auto clean_assign with current object. default enable. use set_objvar to change it.

commit_list

internal variable listed all command. i suggest don't modify and change this variable.

parsed_conf

internal variable of parsed. i suggest don't modify and change this variable.

OBJECT READ METHOD

get_objvar

    $sip_conf->get_objvar(var_name);

return defined object variables.

fetch_sections_list

    $sip_conf->fetch_sections_list();

only return sections name list. does not include 'unsection'.

fetch_sections_hashref

    $sip_conf->fetch_sections_hashref();

this function return parsed config files data.

fetch_keys_list

    $sip_conf->fetch_keys_list(section=>[section name|unsection]);

return keys list of section name or unsection.

fetch_keys_hashref

    $sip_conf->fetch_keys_hashref(section=>[section name|unsection]);

return referenced key list (and keys value), section value 'unsection' return all unsection keys, if section name unreachable return failed.

fetch_values_arrayref

    $sip_conf->fetch_values_arrayref(section=>[section name|unsection],
                                     key=>key name);

return referenced value list, if section name unreachable return failed. if key name unreachable return failed.

reload

    $sip_conf->reload();

reload and parse config file. if clean_when_reload true will do clean_assign.

OBJECT WRITE METHOD

set_objvar

    $sip_conf->set_objvar('var_name'=>'value');

set the object variables to new value.

assign_cleanfile

    $sip_conf->assign_cleanfile();

assign clean all to file.

assign_matchreplace

    $sip_conf->assign_matchreplace(match=>[string],replace=>[string]);

replace new data when matched.

  • match -> string of matched data.

  • replace -> new data string.

assign_append

    $sip_conf->assign_append(point=>['up'|'down'|'foot'],
                             section=>[section name],
                             data=>'key=value'|['key=value','key=value']|{key=>'value',key=>'value'});

append data around with section name.

  • point -> append data up / down / foot with section.

  • section -> matched section name, expect 'unsection'.

  • data -> new replace data in string/array/hash.

    $sip_conf->assign_append(point=>['up'|'down'|'over'],
                             section=>[section name],
                             comkey=>[key,value],
                             data=>'key=value'|['key=value','key=value']|{key=>'value',key=>'value'};

append data around with section name and key/value in same section.

  • point -> over will overwrite with key/value matched.

  • comkey -> match key and value.

    $sip_conf->assign_append(point=>'up'|'down',
                             data=>'key=value'|['key=value','key=value']|{key=>'value',key=>'value'});

simple append data without any section.

assign_replacesection

    $sip_conf->assign_replacesection(section=>[section name|unsection],
                             data=>'key=value'|['key=value','key=value']|{key=>'value',key=>'value'});

modify value with matched section.if don't assign value=> will replace all matched key.

warnning example script:

    $sip_conf->assign_editkey(section=>'990001',key=>'all',new_value=>'gsm');

data:

    all=g711
    all=ilbc

will convert to:

    all=gsm
    all=gsm

assign_delkey

    $sip_conf->assign_delkey(section=>[section name|unsection],key=>[keyname],value=>[value]);

erase all matched keyname in section or in 'unsection'.
