Suppose that you have this scenario: you want to register users from a database using PostgreSQL.
  
After creating our database with the table that we need, we have to tell Yate what database to use. So we write in [[register|register.conf]] the name of the database connection that we use:
+
===Startup configuration file===
 +
 
 +
The main Yate startup configuration is stored in the file yate.conf.
 +
 
 +
Please notice that "yate.conf" under Windows has to be named "yate-service.conf" if you are running it as a service or "yate-console.conf" while running the console version.
 +
In other words it has to match the executable file name or the file would not be loaded and default configuration will be applied.
 +
 
 +
Note: By default in Yate all modules are loaded at startup. By setting parameter '''modload=no''' in section [default], you have to enable modules by hand to load them.
 +
This is done in section [modules] using parameter that contains the name of the module point yate (e.g ''pgsqldb.yate=true'' for using module pgsqldb).
 +
 
 +
File "yate.conf" controls the loading of [[modules]] in Yate.
 +
In your yate.conf these modules should be enabled by hand, only if you set modload=disable:
  
 
  [default]
 
  [default]
  account=Database_Name
+
  modload=disable
 +
 +
[modules]
 +
;Module used to make the connection between Yate and the PostgreSQL database.
 +
pgsqldb.yate=true
 +
;Module used do authenticate, register, route users in the database. 
 +
register.yate=true
 +
 
 +

There are 3 steps to accomplish this task:

# create your database with tables that you need for your configuration (here is an example of [[Register_Database_Schema|a database schema]]).

# put the credentials of the database of the database created in Yate's configuration file: pgsqldb.conf).
 +
# 'tell' Yate which connection to use when users will be registered. This is done in register.conf file.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
==== Set the connection information of database====
 +
 
 +
In PostgreSQL configuration file: [[PostgreSQL|pgsqldb.conf]] we have to set the connection data for this database in a section that will have the same name as the account settled in register.conf:

 +
host=localhost
 +
port=5432
 +
database=yateadmin
 +
user=postgres
 +
password=secret

After "=" you have to write your connection information.

Suppose that you have this scenario: you want to register users from a database using PostgreSQL.

Contents

[edit] Startup configuration file

The main Yate startup configuration is stored in the file yate.conf.

Please notice that "yate.conf" under Windows has to be named "yate-service.conf" if you are running it as a service or "yate-console.conf" while running the console version.
In other words it has to match the executable file name or the file would not be loaded and default configuration will be applied.
Note: By default in Yate all modules are loaded at startup. By setting parameter modload=no in section [default], you have to enable modules by hand to load them.
This is done in section [modules] using parameter that contains the name of the module point yate (e.g pgsqldb.yate=true for using module pgsqldb).

File "yate.conf" controls the loading of modules in Yate. In your yate.conf these modules should be enabled by hand, only if you set modload=disable:

[default]
modload=disable

[modules]
;Module used to make the connection between Yate and the PostgreSQL database.
pgsqldb.yate=true 
;Module used do authenticate, register, route users in the database.  
register.yate=true

[edit] Configure database in Yate

There are 3 steps to accomplish this task:

  1. create your database with tables that you need for your configuration (here is an example of a database schema).
  2. put the credentials of the database of the database created in Yate's configuration file: pgsqldb.conf).
  3. 'tell' Yate which connection to use when users will be registered. This is done in register.conf file.


[edit] Set the connection information of database

In PostgreSQL configuration file: pgsqldb.conf we have to set the connection data for this database in a section that will have the same name as the account settled in register.conf:

[yateadmin]
host=localhost
port=5432
database=yateadmin
user=postgres
password=secret
  

After "=" you have to write your connection information.

[edit] Set the name of the database

In module used is register.conf, in section [default] the name of the database must be set:

[default]
account=yateadmin

[edit] Register users

See an example of a database schema to keep the users data.

In register.conf in section [general] the user.register must be enabled.

[general]
user.register=yes

[user.register]
query=UPDATE users SET location='${data}',expires=CURRENT_TIMESTAMP + INTERVAL '${expires} s' WHERE username='${username}'
