I. How To Compile and install

0. Uninstall PHP
1. Download gnokii 0.6.14 *sources* or later from gnokii.org; compile and install
2. Get PHP 4 *sources* from php.net
3. If you plan to debug this extension then configure PHP using
--enable-debug --enable-experimental-zts
If you plan to use PHP with Apache then add --with-apxs

./configure --with-apxs --enable-debug --enable-experimental-zts --prefix=/usr
make && sudo make install

Compiling this beta version has been tested only after installing
PHP 4 from source with debug options enabled.

I just added gnokii_open() and gnokii_close().

gnokii_open() has two optional arguments, just like command line gnokii: path of config file and name of phone section
gnokii_close() is optional since PHP will close for you at the end of the script

At present the function list is rather short, but there is all what it needs to read SM's:

This is a first try at writing a PHP extension to use gnokii.

Some ideas:

• decide which functions to include (no need to duplicate commandline gnokii)
  • [yes] add a "gnokii_" prefix to all functions?
  • [done] --identify
  • --getsms
  • --sendsms / --savesms
  • --getphonebook (useful for backups)
  • --getsecuritycodestatus / --entersecuritycode
• see if using something like mysql persistent connections makes sense
• how to handle --config and --phone options when they will be implemented?
