Tutorial
========
The general steps to get up and running with CGRateS are:
#. Create CSV files containing the initial data for CGRateS, see :ref:`data-importing`.
#. Load the data in the databases using the loader tool.
#. Start the balancer or rater and connect it to the call switch, see Running_.
#. Start one ore more raters.
#. Make API calls to the balancer/rater or just let the session manager do the work.
Instalation
-----------
Using packages
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Using source
~~~~~~~~~~~~
After the go environment is installed_ and setup_ just issue the following commands:
::
go get github.com/cgrate/cgrates
This will install the sources and compile all available tools
.. _installed: http://golang.org/doc/install
.. _setup: http://golang.org/doc/code.html
Running
-------
There are only three main command to used with CGRateS:
cgr-balancer
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The cgr-balancer will open a JSON RPC server and an HTTP server ready for taking external requests. It will also open a rater server on witch the raters will register themselves when they start.
::
rif@grace:~$ cgr-balancer --help
Usage of cgr-balancer:
-freeswitchpass="ClueCon": freeswitch address host:port
-freeswitchsrv="localhost:8021": freeswitch address host:port
-httpapiaddr="127.0.0.1:8000": Http API server address (localhost:2002)
-json=false: use JSON for RPC encoding
-jsonrpcaddr="127.0.0.1:2001": Json RPC server address (localhost:2001)
-rateraddr="127.0.0.1:2000": Rater server address (localhost:2000)
cgr-rater
~~~~~~~~~
The cgr-rater can be provided with the balancer server address and can be configured to listen to a specific interface and port.
::
rif@grace:~$ cgr-rater --help
Usage of cgr-rater:
-balancer="127.0.0.1:2000": balancer address host:port
-freeswitch=false: connect to freeswitch server
-freeswitchpass="ClueCon": freeswitch address host:port
-freeswitchsrv="localhost:8021": freeswitch address host:port
-json=false: use JSON for RPC encoding
-listen="127.0.0.1:1234": listening address host:port
-redisdb=10: redis database number
-redissrv="127.0.0.1:6379": redis address host:port
-standalone=false: start standalone server (no balancer)
cgr-console
~~~~~~~~~~~
The cgr-console is a command line tool used to access the balancer (or the rater directly) to call all the API methods offered by CGRateS.
::
rif@grace:~$ cgr-console --help
Usage of cgr-console:
-amount=100: Amount for different operations
-balancer="127.0.0.1:2001": balancer address host:port
-cstmid="vdf": Customer identification
-dest="0256": Destination prefix
-subject="rif": The client who made the call
-te="2012-02-09T00:10:00Z": Time end
