# AmiClient

Asterisk Management Interface (AMI) client library for .NET

* https://github.com/alexforster/AmiClient/
* https://www.nuget.org/packages/AmiClient

**Features**

* Designed to be used with `async/await`
* Methods can be safely called from multiple threads
* The `AmiClient` class is `IObservable` for use with Reactive Extensions (Rx)

**Dependencies**

* `System.Reactive.Interfaces`

**Note:** While it's not a dependency, you will probably want to use the `System.Reactive.Linq` package alongside this library.

## Quick start

Here's an easy way to set up an Asterisk 13 development environment:

First, build an Asterisk 13 Docker image...

```bash
cat <<'EOF' | docker build -t asterisk13 -
FROM amd64/ubuntu:bionic
SHELL ["/bin/bash", "-e", "-u", "-o", "pipefail", "-c"]

RUN \
export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive; \
apt-get update; \
apt-get -y install ca-certificates apt-utils; \
apt-get -y install asterisk;

RUN printf '%s\n' \
'[general]' \
'enabled = yes' \
'bindaddr = 0.0.0.0' \
'port = 5038' \
'timestampevents = yes' \
'' \
'#include "manager.d/*.conf"' \
> /etc/asterisk/manager.conf

RUN printf '%s\n' \
'[admin]' \
'secret = amp111' \
'read = all' \
'write = all' \
> /etc/asterisk/manager.d/admin.conf

VOLUME /etc/asterisk
USER asterisk:asterisk
EXPOSE 5038/tcp
EXPOSE 5060/udp
EXPOSE 10000-10500/udp

ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/sbin/asterisk", "-vvvvvvvvv", "-ddddddddd", "-c"]
EOF
```

Then, run your new Asterisk 13 Docker image in a temporary container...

```bash
docker run -it --rm \
--name asterisk13-dev \
-p 5060:5060 -p 5060:5060/udp \
-p 10000-10500:10000-10500/udp \
-p 5038:5038 \
asterisk13
```

Use the example code below as a starting point for learning the *AmiClient* API...

### Example code

```csharp
using System;
using System.Text;
using System.Net.Sockets;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Reactive.Linq;

using Ami;

namespace Playground
{
internal static class Program
{
public static async Task Main(String[] args)
{
// Let's create the AmiClient and set up some general event handling...

var client = new AmiClient();

// Activity on the wire can be observed and logged using the DataSent
// and DataReceived events...

client.DataSent += (s, e) =>
Console.Error.Write($"{Encoding.UTF8.GetString(e.Data)}");
client.DataReceived += (s, e) =>
Console.Error.Write($"{Encoding.UTF8.GetString(e.Data)}");

// To make testing possible, an AmiClient can operate on any underlying
// Stream object that is readable and writable. This means that the user
// is responsible for maintaining a TCP connection to the AMI server...

var socket = new TcpClient(hostname: "127.0.0.1", port: 5038);

// The Stopped event can be used to observe when the AmiClient stops
// processing the underlying stream for any reason...

client.Stopped += (s, e) =>
{
if(e.Exception != null)
{
Console.Error.WriteLine($"Exception: {e.Exception}");
}
};

// Let's go...

using(socket)
using(client)
{
// First, complete the AMI protocol handshake and start a background
// I/O task to consume data from the socket...

await client.Start(socket.GetStream());

// Next, let's authenticate using the Login() helper function...

if(!await client.Login(username: "admin", secret: "amp111", md5: true))
{
Console.Out.WriteLine("Login failed");
return;
}

// In case the Asterisk server hasn't finished booting, let's wait
// until it's ready...

await client.Where(message => message["Event"] == "FullyBooted").FirstAsync();

// Now, let's issue a PJSIPShowEndpoints command...

var response = await client.Publish(new AmiMessage
{
{ "Action", "PJSIPShowEndpoints" },
});

// Because we didn't specify an ActionID, one was implicitly
// created for us by the AmiMessage object. That's how we track
// requests and responses, allowing this client to be used
// by multiple threads or tasks.

if(response["Response"] == "Success")
{
// After the PJSIPShowEndpoints command successfully executes,
// Asterisk will begin emitting EndpointList events.

// Each EndpointList event represents a single PJSIP endpoint,
// and has the same ActionID as the PJSIPShowEndpoints command
// that caused it.

// Once events have been emitted for all PJSIP endpoints,
// an EndpointListComplete event will be emitted, again with
// the same ActionID as the PJSIPShowEndpoints command
// that caused it.

// Using System.Reactive.Linq, all of that can be modeled with
// a simple Rx IObservable consumer...

await client
.Where(message => message["ActionID"] == response["ActionID"])
.TakeWhile(message => message["Event"] != "EndpointListComplete")
.Do(message =>
Console.Out.WriteLine(
$"~~~ \"{message["ObjectName"]}\" ({message["DeviceState"]}) ~~~"));
}

// We're done, so let's be a good client and use the Logoff()
// helper function...

if(!await client.Logoff())
{
Console.Out.WriteLine("Logoff failed");
return;
}
}
}
}
}
```
