PIONEERS Asterisk OAUTH GV patches

A simplified DIY Google Voice OAUTH procedure is available here. Nobody except you has access to your OAUTH tokens using this new procedure.

Ward:
Thank you very much for your effort and the good step by step how to. The recompilation step is very important (the two sed/s). This is also necessary if one generates own tokens. Of course, in that case, a simple text editing will be more convenient.

Any plans on adding this to Incredible PBX 11-12.1 for Raspberry Pi 2?

You bet. Stay tuned. Or you can do it yourself. Instructions in this thread.

 

[StanSimmons]

I'm looking forward to it on the RPi2.

I tried to find the instructions, but only saw them for Ubuntu and CentOS, not for Debian/Raspian.

As Ubuntu is debian based u can use Ubuntu instructions.

Everything you ever wanted to know about OAUTH2 for Google Voice with Asterisk 11, 12, 13 and the GUI of your choice. Great job, RonR!

Finally got it to work.
There's multiple patches running around. If you see the hardcoded ID and secret:

    const char * client_id = "470306186573-jtdetm9fb2b28k4gumaleamea7a14deh.apps.googleusercontent.com";
    const char * client_secret = "zWK1W_I-4ZlfRoFnYRoGhsrB";

you've got the wrong one. Similarly, the latest res_xmpp.c patch in the DSL thread is actually against asterisk 11.18, my installation is 11.17.1 - oops. There is a pre-patched copy of res_xmpp.c earlier in that thread, and it works.

When you create the ID/secret pair on Google, you have to create a native application, not a web app. (You'll get an error 400 page, stating that the callback URI isn't in the list if you use the wrong setting.)

But, it really does work.

PIONEERS only: New OAUTH patches now available for Incredible PBX for Asterisk 13 builds. This uses the stable, hard-coded Incredible PBX credentials because the fancy FreePBX 12 authentication procedure does not (yet) work reliably. So this uses stock Motif module for FreePBX 12.

Not following something here - if I already paid initially for the GVSip service, and that seems to be working correctly, do I need to set this up?
Thanks.

No you are fine. This is only for people who use xmpp/Motif to connect to google voice. Obviously you connect via SIP using the gateway service you have paid for.

 

[isaacl]

Thanks!
I guess once this works though, I really don't bed GVSip then, right?
Question is if it's worth switching off of them, I have had a few issues previously...

 

[wardmundy]

If you want the more flexible SIP connection to Google Voice, stick with one of the gateways. If you prefer no middleware and no middleman, this is a great alternative.

 

[isaacl]

Gotcha, thanks Ward!
And still curious if there's any reason to switch to billsimon's GV gateway from GVSip...

The extra features of Google Voice Gateway are more interesting for people who are connecting phones to the service than for those who are connecting Asterisk. For Asterisk, it's just a SIP trunk, and even that is optional since you have other ways to connect directly to Google Voice. For people connecting phones directly, they get multi-proxy redundancy, multiple registrations, extension-to-extension calling, and SIP URI forwarding. There's an experimental fax forwarding feature available. If I were using only Google Voice, I'd personally use just GVGW and SIP phones and not bother running a full PBX.

 

[isaacl]

Thanks billsimon.
Definitely need the PBX at this point, but I would want to set up a separate GV number with a fax line, and then I might just move over both numbers to your system.
Any way of having multiple GV numbers set up? And any way to have both GV numbers managed under one account?
Thanks a lot!

 

[billsimon]

No, in GVGW, each account is managed and connected independently.

 

[isaacl]

And GVSip seems to be offline today (unless there's some issue on my end), I can't make any outgoing calls.
Time to switch over to something else...

 

[wardmundy]

Same news on DSL Reports. Keep an eye on this link as Ryan hangs out there... at least when his site is working.

GVsip reportedly fixed as of an hour ago. No hint as to what the 2-day problem was.
