A new version of the FreePBX module is now available for download. With this version, testing out SafiWorkshop will be much more simple. The goal of this project is to make it possible to try-out and use SafiWorkshop (and soon SafiServer) without having to touch a single Asterisk config file. With this version; that is now possible.
Here are some of the new features:

• SafiServer profile configuration: define all your settings in one place
• Automatic manager.conf entry: the module will edit this configuration file for you using the information entered in the SafiServer profile
• Ability to use a predefined SafiServer entry or custom entry when adding a Saflet

I've put together a three part walk-through for setting up a database connection, creating a query, and using that query/connection in a Saflet. This should help you get started using some of the new database features in SafiWorkshop.

Here are the links:

• DB Startup Guide: Part 1 Connection
• DB Startup Guide: Part 2 Query
• DB Startup Guide: Part 3 Saflet

More documentation will be available soon.

A new demo of our Asterisk Call-flow designer product, SafiWorkshop, is now available! This will probably be the last Alpha release of the product before a beta demo complete with standalone server is released in the upcoming weeks. Many new features are included in this fully functional demo including:

• Fully-integrated database connection and query builder environment. Built-in support for Postgres, MySQL, and MS SQL Server database products is included with this version. The commercial release will have support for many more
• Powerful database-related ActionSteps that make manipulation and integration of database data with your IVR applications simple and efficient.
• Break Points and Fast-Forward features now available during real-time Saflet debugging (only step-debugging was available previously).
• Saflet Validation feature provides visual cues indicating any problems in the current Saflet.

I've just uploaded the latest Saflets FreePBX Module (version 1.0.2). This version has some simple form validation and Saflet exit destinations (for after the Saflet has been executed). Hopefully all you FreePBX users will find this handy for trying out SafiWorkshop.

We plan on having the beta version of SafiServer finished and internally tested within the next month and we are in need of some beta testers to participate in some external testing.

SafiServer is a standalone Asterisk control server for doing everything from simple call routing to complex database driven IVRs. The call flow applications, called Saflets, are created using the graphical designer: SafiWorkshop.

We've created a module for FreePBX that greatly simplifies making connections from FreePBX to the SafiServer. It also allows for the use of Saflets throughout the FreePBX administrator.
