Re: Build Custom HTTP SMSC

Willy,

Afaik, there's not such feature available on Kannel. Enough said,  
there are many possible courses of action, to name a few of the more  
feasible IMO:

1. Patch kannel to make it talk your particular XML dialect (by  
hooking into the XML POST interface).
2. Put a middleware between kannel and your SMSC that translates the  
XML into something Kannel understands (this is probably the more  
"quick and dirty" solution, should be ok unless you need really high  
performance).
3. Develop an "HTTP Smsc" that parses the XML and inserts the  
messages. This is somewhat easier and cleaner than #1, since all the  
code is already a single C file and you just need to hook your  
"plugin" in there. I'm talking about gw/smsc/smsc_http.c here. You  
still need to get the XML parsing engine to behave, of course, but  
it's probably the way I'd take if I needed a high performance link  
(otherwise I'd simply do #2: put a PHP script to translate the XML  
into an HTTP request or insert using sqlbox and get along with it).

Hope it helps,

Alejandro Guerrieri
