Asterisk PHP

Asterisk PHP (scripting within the dialplan)

Introduction

Asterisk PHP allows you to control the dial-plan and write applications for Asterisk in PHP. This is faster and more flexible than phpAGI.
The PHP extensions can be found at http://eder.us/projects/asterisk_php/
