ZoIP - The Great Asterisk Underground Empire

Originally from http://uc.org/read/ZoIP

Zoip is a new way of playing Zork - It uses Text-to-Speech and
Speech Recognition to play the classic infocom game, Zork. It appears
as a destination. If you wish to play this without needing to go through an IVR,
the easy way is to create a Ring Group with an invalid extension in it, and a destination of Zoip.

Also, if your FreePBX machine is on a slow connection, BE WARNED. This is a 7 Megabyte
download. That's a lot through a slow connection. You don't need to use
the 'online modules' link to donwload this, you can download it
manually - see the bottom of this page, with the title of 'Downloading
it Manually'. I can't download it through a 1.5mbit connection in under
the default 30 second max execution time. If you don't want to download
it manually, and the screen just goes white and stops after 30 seconds,
this is because your 'max_execution_time' in /etc/php.ini is too short.
Set it to 600 (10 minutes), restart apache (/etc/init.d/httpd restart as root) and it should work fine.

As it does some new, non-standard things, there are some packages
that need to be installed. Without these, the module will not work
properly.

[root@asterisk1 ~] rpm -i http://mirror.freepbx.org/sphinx2-0.6-0.i386.rpm

(This could take a couple of minutes to finish downloading, as it's a big file)

That's it - you can now download the module and it'll work happily!

Debian, Ubuntu, apt-style distros

This is taken from the Zoip installer, and may not be accurate. I don't have a Debian machine here, so I can't test this.

  • Install Sphinx2, and Festival
    • Install the Sphinx2 binaries and developer kit
apt-get install sphinx2-bin libsphinx2-dev

    • Install the Sphinx2 Perl bindings
wget http://mirror.freepbx.org/Speech-Recognizer-SPX-0.0801.tar.gz

tar -xzf Speech-Recognizer-SPX-0.0801.tar.gz

cd Speech-Recognizer-SPX-0.0801

perl Makefile.PL --sphinx-prefix=/usr

make install

    • Install Festival, and the 'kallpc8k' voice, sitable for telephone quality
apt-get install festival festvox-kallpc8k

  • Add some additional perl modules used by ZoIP from the apt repository
apt-get install libproc-daemon-perl liblog-log4perl-perl libconfig-tiny-perl

Installing ZoIP Manually

Beacuse this is abig file, it may be neccesary to download the module manually. This is simply done by:

[root@asterisk1 ~]# cd /var/www/html/admin/modules

[root@asterisk1 ~]# wget http://mirror.freepbx.org/modules/release/2.2/zoip-0.2.0.tgz

... file is downloaded ...

[root@asterisk1 ~]# tar zxvf zoip-0.2.0.tgz

... files are extracted ...

From here, you can go back to your Module Administration page, and
the Zoip module will appear as a 'Disabled Module' ready to be
installed, without requiring going to the online module repository.
