DESCRIPTION

POE::Component::Client::Asterisk::Manager is an event driven Asterisk manager client

METHODS

new()

This method creates a POE::Component::Client::TCP session and works inside that session. You can specify the alias, host, port and inline_states. See the synopsis for an example.

CALLBACKS

Callbacks are events that meet a criteria specified in a hash ref

For example:

ring => {
	'Event' => 'Newchannel',
	'State' => 'Ring',
},

The event 'ring' will be called with a hash href in ARG0 when the component receives a manager event matching 'Newchannel' and manager state 'Ring'.

You can specify a catch all event like this:

catch_all => ':all'

Note: This was changed from 'default' to ':all' in an effort to make it more clear. 'default' will also work.

BUGS

None known. Please report them to the author.
