📋 What’s about
To use XCALLY Mobile App, it is necessary to configure your own push gateway by following these guidelines and when you create Mobile Agents in Staff Section you will need to specify your Push Gateway Address (we'll see in this guide what settings to enter based on the scenario you choose)
The XCALLY Push Gateway, consists of 4 modules:
Stack SIP (Drachtio): the element that works as a “proxy” : Via SIP comes the registration from a mobile phone and the push gateway takes the register notification and sends it to XCALLY server, which responds to push gateway and push gateway responds to mobile
Push Notification system: when the app is in the background, the call comes to XCALLY and it's necessary to resume the app to manage the call. So there is a notification system that contacts Apple Push Notification which sends a notification to the agent's mobile. Device receives the Push Notification and agent can manage the call
Redis Cache system used to keep in memory foreground and background devices
Redis Insight: cache dashboard to view what mobiles connected on database. By default dashboards are installed, so you can hook up your database, and if you have mobiles connected, you will see them on dashboard cache.
These 4 modules are run through the docker, so container where the application runs regardless of the operating system.
Since you need to run multiple containers, it’s possible to use docker compose: you define the containers to run (with their variables, ports...) and launching docker compose file (available below), the 4 modules will be executed automatically. So in next sections you can find instructions on how to launch the docker-compose.yml file
📁 Configuration folders and scenarios
To configure the push gateway you have to download the following zip folder, firstly choosing if you want to install the push gateway:
So depending on your choice, you have to run the specific docker compose file and in the zip you will find 2 other folders:
conf for drachtio configuration in which you need to specify your IP ?? aggiungere qualche dettaglio/screen
ssl with 3 files in which you need to upload your certificates
▶️ Other common commands for the 2 scenarios
These common commands are useful if you need to stop or restart containers or if you want to view logs, but obviosly you need firstly to follow the procedure related to the desired scenario and then use these commands only if necessary
🛑 How to stop the containers
To stop and remove the containers (preserving the data), run the following command in the same directory as the docker-compose.yml file:
docker compose down
This command will stop and remove all containers associated with the docker-compose.yml file.
Otherwise, to remove the whole stack (including data):
docker compose down -v
Instead, to remove the single container:
docker compose down <service name>
➡️ How to restart the container
docker compose restart <service name>
<service name> is the name assigned within the docker-compose.yml e.g. service drachtio
To recreate the single container:
docker compose up <service name> -d
👁️ How to view logs or status
To view container logs:
docker logs <container name>
To view container status:
docker stats
To access a container:
docker exec -ti <container name> /bin/bash
To exit the container, type exit.
