Did you actually use ESL with the php wrapper when you tried?
You can do all those things from outbound event socket fairly easily.
That mod_php you saw, never worked it was just a stub and it didn't
actually ever work
when the guy who added it totally disappeared, I removed it from tree.
And you can still do event socket over localhost on the same box if
you so choose.
If you really want a mod_php it's entirely possible but it would
probably cost you upwards
of 5k in development costs.

hi
thank you very much for your input
i can say for me that i realy tried hard to use the event socket
library,
but untill now i can't use it like i used all the agi scripts or
even mod_perl now.
what i do most - in examples, if the server get's an incomming call
- find the right user for the number (not that easy because of did
in austria),
from database or file
- build the right dial string for the bridge application (here i
miss all the php
string functions most)
- unsing mod_php functions like setVariable, getVariable, answer,
transfer, sleep
(i don't see how to do this with the php esl)
- or i check if the number is part of a conferencing product and
build the right
conference setup
i think this would also be possible with lua and luasql, but i
developed years with
phpagi und i'm very used to php in every kind of scripting or how-to-
get-a-solution
situation (since over 10 years now).
for me in our setup it's also the highest goal to get the servers
mostly independent
of each other. i think nobody of our costumers should be unreachable
because a central
scripting/event server or also database server has gone away (as
developers this happens
more often as we would like it to :-))
do not get me wrong, freeswitch is very powerfull and in the near
future it will replace
nearly all of our asterisk servers.
in combination with php the freeswitch plattform would be heaven for
me
i also thought Brian Fertig has some source written (as posted on http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_php
),
in combination of the mod_python rewrite (page was last modified in
june 2007).
