* Fixes the admin_shutdown xmlrpc method
* Adds a share/python/console/shutdown.py script for shutting down a background OpenSim
* For more details see http://xyzzyxyzzy.net/2008/04/29/console-less-opensim/
* There should also be instructions in the opensimulator wiki soon as well
ansgar and i have been working on an asterisk voice module that will allow
us to couple opensim with an asterisk VoIP gateway.
the patch below consists of
* AsteriskVoiceModule region module: alternative to the plain-vanilla
VoiceModule, will make XmlRpc calls out to an asterisk-opensim
frontend
* asterisk-opensim.py frontend, living in share/python/asterisk, takes
XmlRpc calls from the AsteriskVoiceModule
* account_update: to update/create a new SIP account (on
ProvisionVoiceAccountRequest)
* region_update: to update/create a new "region" conference call
(on ParcelVoiceInfo)
* a asterisk-opensim test client, living in share/python/asterisk, to
exercise astersik-opensim.py
this still does not give us voice in OpenSim, but it's another step on
this path...
To use, see the appearance section in opensim.ini.example, set "persist = true", then add the correct connection string for your database.(see mysql-AvatarAppearance.sql in share folder for a example of the table mysql table structure).
This could possible be used in a very small grid, but would mean each region server would need to connect to the same mysql database.
But the work to move the code to one of the grid servers shouldn't be too much.
*Added ability to load regioninfo remotely from a webserver from a single file. See share/RegionLoading/HOWTO_REMOTE_REGION_LOADING.txt for more info and an example file.
In standalone mode, if you have account authenticate turned on (setting in opensim.ini) then when you create a new account, a set of inventory is created for that account and stored in database (currently only a set of empty folders). Then during login the database is search for that set and sent to the client in the login response.
More functions will be added soon, like creating new folders (and a bit later items) from the client inventory window.
