AST_CONFIG()

Synopsis

Retrieve a variable from a configuration file.

Description

This function reads a variable from an Asterisk configuration file.

Syntax

AST_CONFIG(config_file,category,variable_name[,index])
Arguments

  • config_file

  • category

  • variable_name

  • index - If there are multiple variables with the same name, you can specify '0' for the first item (default), '-1' for the last item, or any other number for that specific item. '-1' is useful when the variable is derived from a template and you want the effective value (the last occurrence), not the value from the template (the first occurrence).
