This is SlingshotSMS, a minimal SMS server which connects GSM modems to
websites and applications via a simple HTTP interface.
# Experimental
Hi! This is the experimental branch of SlingshotSMS. Here's what's different and better:
* Minimal slingshotsms.py core: it's lost a hundred lines of code since Goliath and does things in a much more concise fashion
* Multiple messages with JSON: now fewer POSTs required when you have a lot of messages going from place to place
* Way better testing functionality: interactive mode lets you test web applications quickly
* More straightforward configuration
* Uses CherryPy's logging facilities, so logs are easily redirected and repurposed
# Requirements
* AT-compatible GSM modem
# Modem Compatibility
* [pygsm's wiki](http://wiki.github.com/adammck/pygsm)
* http://code.google.com/p/smslib/wiki/Compatibility
# Mac
* Double-click on SlingshotSMS.command
# Windows
* Double-click on slingshotsms.exe
# Running Manually
python slingshotsms.py
## Manual Installation
* Install required libraries
* Drop into directory
* Edit slingshotsms.txt
* run `python slingshotsms.py`
## Configuration
* `mock=yes`
will run sms_server without trying to connect to a server, to test
applications on the ability to POST and receive POST data
* `sms_poll`
is the wait time between asking the modem for new messages
database_file can specify what file the database will be on. Since this uses
sqlObject, the database engine itself is flexible, but thread safety is a concern
because the poller runs on a separate thread from the web server
