Have you done any work with Kannel? Opposed to using Click-A-Tell as the SMS Gateway... we have been planning our implementation and deployment and have been looking at Kannel
We use Clickatell in the demo apps just as an example. It is possible to use any other SMS Gateway. Our upcoming release of the STAFe will include a gateway template that can customized for HTTP connectivity to many different SMS gateways.
Kannel is pretty good, and we have been using it for about 4 years.
There are patches available that allow it to emulate the Clickatell API.
As Kannel also uses a HTTP API, you can modify the posting url, or use a proxy script to translate the Clickatell query string to the native Kannel query string.
It really is quite trivial. Let me know if you require assistance with this.
hello every body, i am new in using Adhere, i have not yet understand the workflow.let me explain. we have the upserver and the adserver. we request an ad from the adServer using the webservice API and the user info are taken from the upserver. i have 2 problems
1) how is the info sent by SMS?
2) in the examples i saw clickatell config param, are the application themselves sending the sms? how can we use another gateway as Kannel for example?
Hello chrismvn,
Actually both questions have the same answer. The sample application sends the SMS via Clickatell gateway. A Clickatell account must be provided in the configuration file for the sample application to be able to send SMS.
The sample application is actually a very simple app for demo purposes only. Please read the steps below in the case of the weather forecast application:
1- The sample application reads the user list from a text file, tab separated as described in the Operation Guide
2- Based on the location provided in the input file, a weather forecast is retrieved for this city.
3- The sample app queries the user profiles server with the receiver number from the list
4- It generates an ad server request with the profile retrieved from the adserver.
5- The ad & the weather forecast is joined together, with a separator between them (taken from the configuration file).
6- The message is sent to the receiver via the Clickatell gateway using the account in the configuration file.
I hope this information was helpful to you :)
