How to find which external modules are loaded from rmanager

To debug external module in telnet the command external is used. To use it (to see what global external module is on) follow the steps bellow.

Connect using telnet from the localhost

  >> telnet 127.0.0.1 5038 

5038 is the default Yate port, in case your Yate uses another port use that.

External parameters meaning

• no command - just start another instance of the module
• start - start an instance only if one isn't already running
• stop - stops the first running instance with that name
• restart - stops (if running) and then starts an external module
• info - provides more detailed information about each of the running modules (no module name is supported)

Command external without parameters

  external

The output should be the external modules that are running at that time. Example:

  1. external_module1.php
  2. external_module2.php

Example usage

Let's say you want to restart one if the scripts without restarting Yate, because you modified it.

Type:

  external restart name_of_script

For the same target you can use "stop" and "start" instead of "restart".
