Synapse

“Synapses are the connections between neurons in the brain through which nervous impulses pass.”

Introduction

Synapse is an advanced event framework in C++:

• Modulair plugin system
• Easy to write modules
• Easy to send and receive message, while maintaining code readability
• Session management
• Build in authentication
• Fine grained access control on sending and receiving of events
• Events can be handled by multiple threads if desired (max-threads is adjustable per session and per module)

Automatic asterisk operator panel

This is the first serious project built on top of the synapse platform.

• Multi server
• Multi tennant
• Minimal configuration
• Auto detection of SIP devices
• Web based
• Login is done by calling a special number, so no additional password and user management is neccesary.

Used synapse modules:

• asterisk_ami: Connects to a asterisk management interface
• http_json: Build-in webserver for full-duplex events. (used in combination with asterisk.html.)
• timer module
• asterisk: this is the project module that mainly talks with the asterisk_ami module. its responsible for collecting and tracking all relevant asterisk data.
• marquee: Module to control our marquee
• asterisk_marquee: Module to couple asterisk module with multiple remote marquees.

Roadmap

Current version:

• Tracking of all calls, channels and sip devices.
• Html panel that shows all sip devices and channels in realtime.
• Still read-only
• Authentication by calling a special number from your sip-device
• Multi tennant support.
• Better user interface.

Next version:

• Multiple marquee support.

Future versions:

• Transfer calls
• Make calls
• etc.
