SMS Framework

In enabling my SMS Messaging module I get:
SMS Messaging 5.x-1.x-dev Sending Method: SMS
Depends on: Messaging (enabled), Sms (missing), Sms_user (missing)
I can not find these modules?

In our use of the smsfranalmework we are requiring the use of numbers outwith the US in order to send messages too. The clickatell api does support the sending of messages but the module itself is only currently utilizing the US numbers. I noticed the sms_formatter function is now checking up to 16 is that to support the international numbers???

A major milestone for the SMS Framework project is reliable and flexible support for incoming SMS messages. Tylor’s work on the SMS Receive module has kickstarted the effort and I believe we make a plan for the future of two-way support in the framework.

This is the roadmap for the 1.1 release of the SMS Framework. Please add your items and tickets to the issue tracker.

We will begin working on these tickets as soon as the 1.0 release is made.

• Improve international support (#197343)
• Standardized phone number format
• Drupal 6 release (#252568)
• Write more API documentation
• Improve the SMS Blast module (#276320)

There has been some steady work to improve the SMS Framework module and I think it would be valuable to outline some thoughts on a 1.0 release. As far as new features the biggest ones will be the ability to receive messages and support for the Muse gateway. There will also be major improvements to user interface and scalability for the SMS User module.

Issues I would like to see resolved for a 1.0 release:

Good Day,

Please excuse me if the topic is off. I would like to know if this group will cover MMS as well or is just strictly SMS? Is there a MMS group here? Thank you and again, please excuse my post if it is not appropriate for this group.

Thank you,

Mark

Hi there! We're doing some work on SMS framework, since we've chosen it as the basis for some mobile work we're doing. Ultimately, it is a good framework, and better suited for extensability than SMS gateway.

Tylor has been working on it for the past couple of weeks. One of the main things we've done is add hooks for receiving messages (a la sms gateway), so that we can do interesting things like allow processing by other modules when we receive an SMS (or MMS) message.

I see no activity on SMS Framework project since more than 5 months.

I plan to add some features:

• More logging (cf. the unused sms_messages table)
• SMS delivery status (cf. Clickatell API 'callback' option)
• A quota system

Any feedbacks from module's owner ?

Thanks,
Aymerick

Thanks for all of your support and ideas during development. I'm getting ready for one final sprint during the last week and I'd appreciate your feedback on the code. The latest revision is currently available in CVS.

I've posted an update on the SMS Framework project and a screencast on the Development Seed blog. It introduces some of the new functionality that I've implemented using the API.

I'm working on a filter module that allows you to surround a chunk of text with [sms][/sms] tags. The module will highlight the text and append a "send to phone" button. The button will take users to a form where they can send the highlighted block of text in a message.

I'd appreciate any ideas or comments! Thanks!

It's hard to believe that it's already time for mid-term reviews. The project has been coming along at a nice pace. Here's an update.

I've created a basic architecture for gateway drivers. Gateway modules can define new gateways by implentating a hook called hook_smsframework_info(). This hook was based on the node modules hook_node_info(). An implementation returns an array that contains several pieces of information about the gateway driver. Below is the hook's implementation for the Clickatell driver module.

Here are some use cases that I've received from my mentors. There are some great ideas here, and I hope to implement as many as I can. Please add you ideas if you have any.

Events Integration
If you have events posted on your website, you should be able to collect cell phone numbers in your event sign up form and then use them to send an SMS blast if there is a last minute change in location, a weather update, or even a full parking lot.

• Show field for mobile number on RSVP form
• Enable on an event-by-event basis

CCK Integration

I found Kannel, an open source WAP/SMS Gateway that runs on Linux. According to their project's website, it is possible to run Kannel on a machine with a GSM mobile phone connected to it and have yourself an SMS gateway. I will definitely take a close look at this project. I'm going to try to get it running this weekend. If I can, writing a driver for this system makes a lot of sense. It will make SMS more accessible to smaller organizations.

Week one of Google SoC 2007 is already over and I'm off to a great start of my SMS Framework project. I've begun developing the gateway side of the API. I've designed it so that additional gateways can be created and install like standard modules. Gatway modules implement hook_smsframework_info(), which returns an array containing information about the gateway(s) the module enables. The information includes the gateway's name, callbacks (for validation, sending, ect.), and a form for configuration.

After doing some initial research for the SMS Framework project, I've come up with the following outline. I'll be having a conference call with my project mentors on Tuesday. I'd like to invite the community to share their input about additional gateways to extend and functionality to implement.

Abstract

The SMS Framework project will improve and expand the SMS technology integrated into Drupal powered applications and websites and make it easier to incorporate SMS elements into Drupal websites. To carry this project out, I will research existing SMS so-lutions for Drupal, identify shortcomings, and build a driver based API that can be ex-tended to work with common SMS service providers and integrated into Drupal core and contributed modules.
