caret

caret consists of a set of interfaces and libraries to allow programming of Asterisk from Python. The library currently supports AGI, AMI, and the parsing of Asterisk configuration files. The library also includes debugging facilities for AGI.

This project provides a single library for all Asterisk based needs of Python users and an easy transition to Python for PHP users from the PHPAGI package.

Installation

Using Python

To install caret, simply run:

$ pip install caret

On Debian/Ubuntu

(Under development)

This will install the latest version of the library automatically.

Documentation

Documentation is still under development and parts of it are hosted on https://ar13pit.github.io/caret/

Use Python docstrings for time being using Python’s built-in help facility:

import caret
help (caret)
import caret.agi
help (caret.agi)
import caret.manager
help (caret.manager)
import caret.config
help (caret.config)

Some notes on platforms: We now specify “platforms = ‘Any’” in setup.py. This means, the manager part of the package will probably run on any platform. The agi scripts on the other hand are called directly on the host where Asterisk is running. Since Asterisk doesn’t run on windows platforms (and probably never will) the agi part of the package can only be run on Asterisk platforms.
