ABOUT HERMES
-------------------------

Hermes is a framework for managing a Kamailio SIP VoIP infrastructure.  It is
designed to manage user accounts, SIP aliases, E164 phone number aliases and
automatic provisioning of hardphones. Hermes provides an API as a foundation
for its own user interface, and for integration with other systems. The API is
implemented as HTTP-REST using JSON.  The user interface focuses on dayly
administration tasks (user management, alias handling, phone registration) and
not on Kamailio server management.


CONFIGURING THE FRONTEND/UI
-------------------------
TBD

CONFIGURING THE API
-------------------------

The API needs to be configured separately from the UI.
API configuration is done by creating the PHP file
$install_path/api/config.php. A sample configuration file
is provided as $install_path/api/config.php.sample.
If config.php is not present, the API may fail in
in somewhat unpredictable ways ... 

sql_server 	-> Your MySQL server ...
sql_username	-> Username for MySQL access 
		Needs RW access to kamailio and provision db's
sql_password	-> Password for the above username
kamailio_db	-> Database name of kamailio db.
provision_db	-> Database name of provision db.

standard_dialplan -> Dialling pattern to use for new users
default_domain	  -> What domain should always be listed first
permit_multiple_e164alias -> Currently not used ...

The following configuration options define SQL table names
for respective data-sets, values for the sample-data.sql
are listed... :

kamailio_domain_table		(domain)
kamailio_subscriber_table	(subscriber)
kamailio_alias_table		(dbaliases)
provision_users_table		(users)
provision_phones_table		(phones)
provision_servers_table		(servers)
numbers_table			(numbers)
