Modules

By default Yate loads modules relevant to its current running mode:

• all modules from the base module directory
• in client mode modules from the client subdirectory
  • and all modules from the qt4 subdirectory in the Qt based client
• in server mode modules from the server subdirectory
  • if yjinglechan is loaded also all modules from the jabber subdirectory

You just need to list all .yate files in those directories. Which exactly are there depends on what dependency libraries are detected at configure time or what packages or components you installed.

Loading of each module is controlled by the base name of each module in the [modules] section of the relevant main config file (yate.conf or yate-qt4.conf). The default is specified by modload= in section [general] of the same file:

• if modload=yes (default) all modules are loaded if not disabled explicitely
• if modload=no only explicitely enabled modules are loaded
