Changing States in ZM

Post by voronwe »

Hi All you good people.

As you all proberly know we can change the state off how ZM is running and so on, and for this i have been fooling around with some php scripting, for easy integration to the linux cron job handler, and have come up with a working solution ( not all tested thru BETA BETA), and was wondering if anyone would be interested in testing / using an "application" as that.

My "big" idea was to make an easy interface for my custemers to set up cron jobs that could handle holydays / weekends and stuff like that. The php scripts are minded at offices and companies that dont want zm running 24x7x365 and dont want to do alot of cron handeling.

How it Works. :

You make a cron job that runs every 30 minutes starting at 00 and then again at 30 every day, this cron job runs the php work script, this script then makes a query (several) to a tabel called caledar to see if the user have made an entry, and so on.

With this is a simple user interface to create / wiev / update - change / delete calendar jobs.

If this have any interest please let me know and ill make a downloadeble version of the files needed and put them out for you guys.
Best Regards
Tom Stage
