Custom NodeNames

W0otm · August 17, 2015, 9:08pm

I have written a shell script to create custom node names to replace
the announcing of nodes by their node number to the “callsign”
configured for each node on the system. Its 2 parts. First uses a
php script to download all the AllStar Node data and saves as txt
file called nodenames.

I save mine as 'getnodes.php'. The code can be found here:

After this runs, I run the second script:
I save mine as ‘nodenames.sh’. The code can be found here:
This script looks up the node number and finds the callsign, it then
creates a .ulaw file using the letters and digits found in the
AllStar systems. No TTS! It saves all the ####.ulaw files in Now when a node connects or disconnects, its announces a callsign
instead of a node number.

Marshall,
Looks interesting. On systems that have either lsnodes or allmon the astdb.txt file should already exist and is updated daily. It might be better to use that file for the second script if it exists. That would avoid unnecessary reads from the database and having yet another astdb.php file on the system. The astdb.php file has changed recently also and has better error detection, retry support, and it sorts. Just a suggestion.
Also I have a simple combine script I include in the BBB and RPi2 release that simply combines the gsm files with like this

cat file1.gsm file2.gsm file3.gsm > node.gsm
As long as all files type are the same there is no need to do any conversion. So maybe ffmpeg is not needed?

Hmmm…

Your getnodes.php is a line-for-line copy of my one version back astdb.php from allmon2. Allmon is open source and anyone is welcome to use parts of it as they see fit. However, vaguely claiming it’s your code is less than forthcoming. It’s brain dead simple code and I’m not claiming it’s my stolen master piece. It’s just low you imply that you wrote it.

Tim, if you feel you need credit for a few lines of code…then Im happy do send a mass email put to everyone on this list to announce I used your old code.

But, no where in the astdb.php file in my raspberry pi distro from the UK AllStar Group is your name listed. Nowhere is there an indication of who the author is…so, I will take your word that you deserve credit…I’ll get the plaque ordered:)

Marshall,
I certainly was not criticizing your work, just making a few suggestions. If you are using the RPi2 (or BBB) then the astdb.txt file is located in /var/log/asterisk updated by a cron entry daily. You could simply read it from there. You do not have to create another copy of astdb.php.
Also I was looking for your comments on the ffmpeg. Why is that needed? Are the file types different that you are combining? You could just cat them together if they are all one type and just play them. gsm files will play as well as ulaw. You could also use sox to adjust the volume. There are examples of that in the scripts on the RPi2.
I think this would be a worthwhile script to maybe include in the RPi2/BBB image. It just needs a little refinement.

Everyone has an opinion, you are certainly entitled to yours. In the AllStar raspberry pi image I downloaded, it didn’t contain a solution for what I was trying to solve. What I made works well for me and I’m happy with it. Maybe others will see value in it as well.

I haven't looked at this yet, but does it check for node ID files so that it doesn't override ones you already have for specific nodes? For instance, ones for the WAN system, let's say. If it doesn't check for those, maybe another addition?

Tim, I wrote ALL the code for the AllStarLink Web Configuration Portal years ago. NOWHERE is it documented that I authored it. You don’t see me crying over not getting credit for my contributions!

It’s really ridiculous that you are pissing and moaning over a few lines of code…now that you’ve made a BIG stink, we ALL now know you authored the astdb.php script (although it’s not documented in the actual file anywhere, I’ll have to take your word for it)

EVERYONE give Tim a round of applause!

I will never offer another contribution to this project EVER again. Jim Dixon, mark my word! EVER!

Nope, once again you are wrong. Nowhere on the site where I got my RP2i image from does not indicate where allmon2 was sourced from…I’ve never even heard of allmon2 before you crying like a baby! Or that you were the author of it.

I really hope you are getting whatever it is you are needing though all of this…all this hub hub over a nodename script…

I sure got what I needed…reassurance that nothing has changed in the ham radio community. Still the same old drab folks in desperate need of attention and reinforcing their value in the hobby.

Tim,

No one gives a poop about about some code that you “claim” you wrote. Had the code been commented with your name, I could have given credit. But since there was nothing, it was impossible for me to know who wrote it. Since your name is NOWHERE in the file, I’m assuming you are claiming ownership of someone else’s work.

With uncommented, open source code, I don’t give a shit about worrying about stroking some arrogant douchbag’s ego. I don’t care what you think. I don’t care how you perceive my contribution. If you can’t see the intention of my contribution, then that’s YOUR problem.

After this runs, I run the second script:

I save mine as 'nodenames.sh'. The code can be found here: 
http://pastebin.com/AWtPpYjY
This script looks up the node number and finds the callsign, it then
creates a .ulaw file using the letters and digits found in the
AllStar systems. No TTS! It saves all the ####.ulaw files in /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/rpt/nodenames.
Now when a node connects or disconnects, its announces a callsign
instead of a node number.

You kiss your mother with that mouth?

Can we try to act like grown ups? Please?

Nope, once again you are wrong. Nowhere on the site where I got my RP2i image from does not indicate where allmon2 was sourced from…I’ve never even heard of allmon2 before you crying like a baby! Or that you were the author of it.

I really hope you are getting whatever it is you are needing though all of this…all this hub hub over a nodename script…

I sure got what I needed…reassurance that nothing has changed in the ham radio community. Still the same old drab folks in desperate need of attention and reinforcing their value in the hobby.

If it wasn’t for people all the thankless people in this hobby, you wouldn’t have a platform to cry on!

The UK, you got it from a UK site? Well I’m impressed my code is getting around the world. Ok, I’ll take the hit for not putting my mark anywhere in the code but I was not and am not looking for a plaque Just so you know it came from here https://github.com/tsawyer/allmon2. Doug did ask me if he could distribute it with his RP2 code and I think it’s mentioned somewhere on his site.

I just think you should be more careful about your claims.

Tim, if you feel you need credit for a few lines of code…then Im happy do send a mass email put to everyone on this list to announce I used your old code.

But, no where in the astdb.php file in my raspberry pi distro from the UK AllStar Group is your name listed. No where is there an indication of who the author is…so, I take you word that you deserve credit…I’ll get the plaque ordered:)

Hmmm…

Your getnodes.php is a line-for-line copy of my one version back astdb.php from allmon2. Allmon is open source and anyone is welcome to use parts of it as they see fit. However, vaguely claiming it’s your code is less than forthcoming. It’s brain dead simple code and I’m not claiming it’s my stolen master piece. It’s just low you imply that you wrote it.

I have written a shell script to create custom node names to replace
the announcing of nodes by their node number to the “callsign”
configured for each node on the system. Its 2 parts. First uses a
php script to download all the AllStar Node data and saves as txt
file called nodenames.
I save mine as 'getnodes.php'. The code can be found here:
