NAME

       gammu-smsd-files - gammu-smsd(1) backend using filesystem as a message storage

DESCRIPTION

       FILES  backend  stores  all  data  on  a  filesystem in folders defined by configuration (see gammu-smsdrc for description of configuration
       options).

RECEIVING OF MESSAGES

       Received messages are stored in a folder defined by configuration. The filename will be IN<date>_<time>_<serial>_<sender>_<sequence>.<ext>,
       for example NN20021130_021531_00_+45409000931640979_00.txt.

       Explanation of fields:

       <date> date in format YYYYMMDD

       <time> time in format HHMMSS

       <sender>
	      sender number

       <serial>
	      order of a message (in case more messages were received at same time), in format NN

       <sequence>
	      part of the message for multipart messages, in format NN

       <ext>  txt for text message, 8-bit messages are stored with bin extension, smsbackup for gammu-smsbackup

       The content of the file is content of the message and the format is defined by configuration directive InboxFormat (see gammu-smsdrc).

TRANSMITTING OF MESSAGES

       Transmitted messages are read from a folder defined by configuration. The filename should be one of the following formats:

       o OUT<recipient>.<ext>

       o OUT<priority>_<recipient>_<serial>.<ext>

       o OUT<priority><date>_<time>_<serial>_<recipient>_<note>.<ext>

       Explanation of fields:

       <recipient>
	      recipient number where to send message

       <priority>
	      an alphabetic character (A-Z) A = highest priority

       <ext>  txt for normal text SMS, smsbackup for gammu-smsbackup

       <note> any artibrary text which is ignored

       For text messages, you can additionally append flags to extension:

	  d	 delivery report requested

	  f	 flash SMS

	  b	 WAP bookmark as name,URL

       Other fields are same as for received messages.

       For example OUTG20040620_193810_123_+4512345678_xpq.txtdf is a flash text SMS requesting delivery reports.

       SMSes  will  be transmitted sequentially based on the file name. The contents of the file is the SMS to be transmitted (in Unicode or stan-
       dard character set).

       The contents of the file is the SMS to be transmitted (in Unicode or standard character set), for WAP bookmarks it is split on as Name,URL,
       for text messages whole file content is used.

       Please  note  that  if file is not in Unicode, encoding is detected based on locales, which do not have to be configured if SMSD is running
       from init script. If this is your case, please add locales definition to init script.

NAME

       gammu-smsd-run - documentation for RunOnReceive directive

DESCRIPTION

       Gammu SMSD can be configured by RunOnReceive directive (see gammu-smsdrc for details) to run defined program after receiving every message.
       It can receive single message or more messages, which are parts of one multipart message.

       This parameter is executed through shell, so you might need to escape some special characters and you can include any number of parameters.
       Additionally  parameters  with  identifiers  of	received messages are appended to the command line. The identifiers depend on used service
       backend, typically it is ID of inserted row for database backends or file name for file based backends.

       Gammu SMSD waits for the script to terminate. If you make some time consuming there, it will make SMSD not receive new messages. However to
       limit  breakage from this situation, the waiting time is limited to two minutes. After this time SMSD will continue in normal operation and
       might execute your script again.

       Note   All input and output file descriptors are closed when this program is invoked, so you have to ensure to open files on your own.

ENVIRONMENT

       program is executed with environment which contains lot of information about the message. You can use it together with  NULL  service  (see
       gammu-smsd-null) to implement completely own processing of messages.

   Global variables
       SMS_MESSAGES
	      Number of physical messages received.

       DECODED_PARTS
	      Number of decoded message parts.

   Per message variables
       The variables further described as SMS_1_... are generated for each physical message, where 1 is replaced by current number of message.

       SMS_1_CLASS
	      Class of message.

       SMS_1_NUMBER
	      Sender number.

       SMS_1_TEXT
	      Message text. Text is not available for 8-bit binary messages.

   Per part variables
       The  variables  further	described as DECODED_1_... are generated for each message part, where 1 is replaced by current number of part. Set
       are only those variables whose content is present in the message.

       DECODED_1_TEXT
	      Decoded long message text.

       DECODED_1_MMS_SENDER
	      Sender of MMS indication message.

       DECODED_1_MMS_TITLE
	      title of MMS indication message.

       DECODED_1_MMS_ADDRESS
	      Address (URL) of MMS from MMS indication message.

       DECODED_1_MMS_SIZE
	      Size of MMS as specified in MMS indication message.

EXAMPLES

   Activating RunOnReceive
       To activate this feature you need to set RunOnReceive in the gammu-smsdrc.

       [smsd]
       RunOnReceive = /path/to/script.sh

   Processing messages from the files backend
       Following script (if used as RunOnReceive handler) passes message data to other program. This works only with the gammu-smsd-files.

       #!/bin/sh
       INBOX=/path/to/smsd/inbox
       PROGRAM=/bin/cat
       for ID in "$@" ; do
	   $PROGRAM < $INBOX/$ID
       done

   Passing message text to program
       Following script (if used as RunOnReceive handler) passes message text and sender to external program.

       #!/bin/sh
       PROGRAM=/bin/echo
       for i in `seq $SMS_MESSAGES` ; do
	   eval "$PROGRAM "${SMS_${i}_NUMBER}" "${SMS_${i}_TEXT}""
       done

   Passing MMS indication parameters to external program
       Following script (if used as RunOnReceive handler) will write information about each received MMS indication to the log file. Just  replace
       echo command with your own program to do custom processing.

       #!/bin/sh
       if [ $DECODED_PARTS -eq 0 ] ; then
	   # No decoded parts, nothing to process
	   exit
       fi
       if [ "$DECODED_1_MMS_ADDRESS" ] ; then
	   echo "$DECODED_1_MMS_ADDRESS" "$DECODED_1_MMS_SENDER" "$DECODED_1_MMS_TITLE" >> /tmp/smsd-mms.log
       fi

   Processing message text in Python
       Following script (if used as RunOnReceive handler) written in Python will concatenate all text from received message:

       #!/usr/bin/python
       import os
       import sys

       numparts = int(os.environ['DECODED_PARTS'])

       # Are there any decoded parts?
       if numparts == 0:
	   print('No decoded parts!')
	   sys.exit(1)

       # Get all text parts
       text = ''
       for i in range(1, numparts + 1):
	   varname = 'DECODED_%d_TEXT' % i
	   if varname in os.environ:
	       text = text + os.environ[varname]

       # Do something with the text
       print('Number %s have sent text: %s' % (os.environ['SMS_1_NUMBER'], text))
