Ruby Asterisk Gateway Interface (RAGI)
|
Ruby Asterisk Gateway Interface (RAGI) is a useful open-source framework for
bridging the Ruby on Rails web application
server environment and Asterisk,
the open-source PBX.
RAGI eases the development of interactive automated telephony applications
such as IVR, call routing, automated call center, and extended IP-PBX
functionality by leveraging the productivity of the Ruby on Rails framework.
RAGI simplifies the process of creating rich telephony and web apps with a
single common web application framework, object model and database backend.
RAGI is available under the BSD license.
Class Overview | |
The most important classes in RAGI to an application developer are call_connection,
call_handler and call_initiate. These three classes provide everything you need to
create interactive phone applications in Asterisk using Ruby.
Detailed API documentation is provided in the source files for each class. Please review
the README file in the installation for setup and usage instructions.
| |
Configuration and Getting Started |
RAGI is installed using RubyGems. To obtain RAGI, simply type the following at your command prompt:
gem install ragi
In the directory "ragi" you will find the core class files that make up RAGI and a helpful README file. In the directory "sample-apps" you will find a subdirectory for the simon game sample application.
Please see the README file that accompanies the installation for examples on how to use RAGI in the context of a Rails application.

Sample Apps | |
"The Simon Game" is a simple application included with the RAGI installation. Test your memory by punching the numbers you here on the phone. See how long of a number string you can memorize as it grows longer and longer.

Developer Support | |
For support, please post your questions on the RAGI forums on RubyForge.
RAGI was downloaded over 400 times in the 2 months after it was released on SourceForge, so there are bound to be people
in the community who can help you with your question. Snapvine also monitors these forums and will try to respond to your questions.
