Re: [asterisk-users] php web chat + asterisk - callcenter

2008-03-18 Thread Marco Mouta
I would recommend you Asterisk for Voice and Video and XMPP for Chat.

Asterisk in parallel with Jabberd2 (XMPP server) may feet your requirements,
and if you use a XMPP MSN Transport Gateway you can do even more.

  Hello,



 How can I make a live chat (mainly text, but with voice/video chat if

 Can asterisk control simultaneously the queue between people calling by

 At my work, there is a call center using asterisk to control the queue of
 the clients (by phone) already. This part is ok.

 But now I need to make a chat room at the website and someone of the call
 center will need to answer that client.



 So my doubt is how to implement a solution that identifies an operator who
 is free and put him to talk by chat and then make him busy to phone calls.

 After the web chat is finished, the operator turns automatically free
 again.



 I'm planning to use php to set an asterisk variable telling the agent is
 free or busy.

 Can you tell me the asterisk apis involved with busy agents?

 Eg.: how do I set one agent as busy? I can set it by php, don't I?



 Is there any software like this one, Centriphone Millennium, for free?

 http://www.vocalcom.com/asterisk.html



 Is there any free solution?



 Where can I find information about how to settle asterisk variables (to
 get and to set) with php programming?



 I need to make a php page that settles a property of asterisk in runtime.

 Is it possible? How do I do it?



 Thanks in advance,

 Carlos

Obviously asterisk has nothing to do with your web-chat component. Are  
you writing this 'chat' application yourself? If you are, then when  
the person is IN chat, simply make a LDAP or a Mysql entry somewhere.  
Asterisk can simply read that entry to decide whether the user is on  
web chat or not. Doesnt that work?
