sms-queue

Description

sms-queue consists of server and client applications to build up a mechanism to send many SMS-messages in a networked environment. sms-queue itself does not send a SMS-message but passes it to a backend application.

As of version 0.6 the communication betweeen the server and the client is based on a simple ASCII protocol over TCP/IP. This makes it simple to develop your own client if sms2queue (the standard sms-queue client) does not fit into your system.

For an incomplete list of possibly suitable backends and similar projects, see the sms link page.

Requirements

As sms-queue is written in Perl, it should run on any platform, Perl has been ported to.

Though the following additional perl modules are necessary:

• LockFile::Simple
• Error
• Mail::Sender
• Storable
• Net::Daemon
• Config::General

Download

Please note: The provided debian- and rpm-packages are unofficial and may not work with your distribution. So install them at your own risk! (But at least the debian package works very well for me ;-)

The tar-archives without the "simple" suffix provide a small installation script. See also the generic installation instructions.

Previous releases are archived here.

If you want to get notified on new releases, you could use the really cool subscription feature of freshmeat on the sms-queue freshmeat-project-page.
