Alternative for dbget and dbput

Asterisk Asterisk Support

Hi everyone,

I’ve seen this script from one of the posts in wiki but the problem is i’m now using 1.4.x. Is there anyway i can make this work.

Script:

exten => s,1,DBget(status=cfstatus/${ARG1})
exten => s,2,Playback(es-cfstatus) ; Your call forwarding status is currently…

exten => s,3,NoOp($[${status} != 0]);

exten => s,4,GotoIf($[${status} != 0]?s,7)
exten => s,5,Playback(es-inactive) ; inactive
exten => s,6,Goto(s,10)
exten => s,7,Playback(es-active) ; active
exten => s,8,Playback(es-forwarded) ; All calls are forwarded to…
exten => s,9,SayDigits(${status})
exten => s,10,Wait,1 ;

exten => s,102,DBPut(cfstatus/${ARG1}=${DEFAULTCFSTATUS})
exten => s,103,Goto(s,1)

Thanks!

I believe they removed dbget and dbput on asterisk 1.4.X that’s why i asked for any alternative way. I havent used macro before.

Sorry I dont get you,

I have posted the details of the way that was introduced in 1.2 ie DB it is well documented in the upgrade notes of 1.0 to 1.2 and to 1.4, What I have posted has nothing to do with macros. This is the help pages from asterisk its self. I assume you do use them ?
