Fun With SMS Management System [playSMS]

Note: This post is a drafted version which used beta version of playSMS at the time of writing. You may install latest stable release. 

---

Recently I installed playsms at a network [where Radius manager along with Kannel was already configured to send sms notifications to subscribers] and after seeing playSMS  amazing features , I thought to share some basics of it.

I found that many guides available on the internet for installing playSMS are either for older versions or with much manual methods which can be sometimes confusing for the beginners, therefore I decided to write an easier version of installation guide of playSMS.

 

 

So what is playSMS ?

playSMS is a Free and Open Source web base SMS management software. designed by Mr. Anton Raharja at http://playsms.org.

Its main job is to handle outgoing and incoming SMS, single or bulk SMS. You can call it ‘SMS Gateway’ . A flexible Web-based mobile portal system that it can be made to fit to various services such as an SMS gateway, bulk SMS provider, personal messaging system, corporate and group communication tools

Since its open-source application therefore you can adjust it to suite your need, modify it as per your requirements and it can fit with other gateways as well like Kannel (which I have used in radius box). It can receive sms and act accordingly, you can create POLL, Quiz, subscription to any list/package via SMS. SMS 2 Email, Refresh user account via sms using scratch card like wi-tribe or some other ISP’s offers, or mobile companies like send sms to specific number with the specific text and scratch number, inquire system detail , execute specific command, etc etc.

1- Hardware / Software used for this guide

• OS = Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS , 32bit
• Hardware = Teltonika Modem USB/E12 UM1400 [This is best modem I have ever used, very stable 🙂 but you can use any cheaper model too like Dlink DWM-156 I have also used, but sometimes I have to simply restart it or sometimes it gives unpredictable results

2- Kannel.Conf Sample for playSMS

As I mentioned in the beginning, I used KANNEL as gateway for playSMS, so you should configure KANNEL first and make sure you can send sms with it. Once successful, then you can add/replace following SMS_SERVICE section in /etc/kannel.conf to make playSMS handle the received SMS.

/etc/kannel/kannel.conf , modify only SMS-SERVICE section

group = sms-service
keyword = default
get-url = "http://localhost/playsms/index.php?app=call&cat=gateway&plugin=kannel&access=geturl&t=%t&q=%q&a=%a&Q=%Q"
accept-x-kannel-headers = true
max-messages = 1000
concatenation = true
catch-all = true
text = "Galaxy ROBOT by Zaib"
omit-empty = true

3- PLAYSMS [ver 1.0-rc9] Install Instructions for UBUNTU OS.

[Please download latest version available]

As usual first update Ubuntu , then install require packages.

apt-get update

apt-get install apache2 mysql-server php5 php5-cli php5-mysql php5-cgi php-pear php-gettext libapache2-mod-php5 apache2-mpm-prefork php-db make gcc lynx wget curl

Now you need to create MYSQL database for playsms. You can create it either via login to your mysql console , or issue direct command to create it as showed in the example below …

mysql -u root -pROOTPASS -e "create database playsms";
mysql -u root -pROOTPASS -e "grant usage on *.* to playsms@localhost identified by 'playsms';"

Change credentials as required.

---

Installing playSMS …

First download the playsms package, and unrar it

mkdir /temp
cd /temp
wget https://github.com/antonraharja/playSMS/archive/1.0-rc9.tar.gz
ls
tar zxvf 1.0-rc9.tar.gz
cd playSMS-1.0-rc9/
cp install.conf.dist install.conf

Now edit install.conf and change the info as required, like db name, mysql id password. The installer script uses this file to pick values and install the package accordingly. So make sure all directives are defined properly before firing up the actuall installation script.
Also make sure you change the PATH to match your linux distribution, like in ubuntu the path of www is /var/www

Once you done editing info, press b to continue & it will continue to install the playsms.

once all done verify that you can see the playsms in process

root@radius:/temp/playSMS-1.0-rc9# ps aux |grep playsms
root      4568  0.6  0.3  51032 15844 pts/1    S    10:58   0:26 /usr/bin/php -q /usr/local/bin/playsmsd schedule

5- Configure GATEWAY section to enable playsms send/receive sms

After successful login we have to first configure GATEWAY pointing to KANNEL to send receive sms using kannel as our main gateway. You can skip kannel or use other gateway too depend on your choice, but since I was already using kannel because of Radius Manager, so I simply used it because of its versatility and highly customization.

Goto Settings / Manage gateway and SMSC
As showed in the image below …

Now in the List of gateways, click on edit button (wheel) next to KANNEL.
As showed in the image below …

Now at Manage Kannel window adjust the parameters according to your old kannel configuration. pay attention to username password & proper ports.
As showed in the image below …

Now save it.

 

Open Manage Gateway page again and click on + sign to add KANNEL as your gw.
As showed in the image below …

8- Creating User Account with CREDITS base system, and send / receive in User Inbox / a type of SMS PABX 😀

Using playSMS, we can create user accounts and add credits in it, so when user sends sms, balance would deduct from his account automatically , and once his balance finishes, he wont be able to send sms. User will be assigned with an ID and Password, He can send SMS via web panel, also he can receive SMS (the other party must reply to or send sms with @username in his sms in order to receive it in specific user inbox).

 

Enable SMS Routing to INBOX in playSMS

• First enable Route incoming SMS
• Goto  Settings / Route Incoming SMS
• Select YES in Scan incoming SMS for @username and Scan incoming SMS for #groupcode
• and SAVE.

 

 

Create User Account 

Now we will create a test user account and will add credits in it too.

• Goto Settings / Manage Account > User
• Click on + sign to add user

Add the details as required and click on SAVE.
As showed in the image below …

User Account Creation Done.

ADDING CREDITS in user Account

To add credits in user account,

• Goto Settings / Manage Credit
• Click on + sign
• Select User
• Add amount and Save

 

 

Now logout from admin ID, or use another browser to login to playSMS panel with the newly created account and send an test sms  to any number. After sending sms, you will see that your balance will be deducted (I added 10rs as a balance, and set per sms cost 5rs, so after sending my remaining balance is 5 rs only

Howto receive SMS in user INBOX ?

You have to inform the sender that they have to add @username in there sms , otherwise SMS will receive in SANDBOX, not user inbox.

Example for sender format

“@test Ok I have received the sms” and send it to playSMS mobile number.
As showed in the image below …

Now the user test can goto My Account / Inbox and there he can see the received SMS.
As showed in the image below …

You can also setup SMS 2 EMAIL, SMS Forwarding to USER Mobile , etc etc , Its amazing that free open source tool can provide you this much Power of FREEDOM 🙂

9- Creating SMS base POLL system

You can create SMS poll system in playSMS, a kind of voting system as well so user can send sms to playSMS mobile number with his choice , and his entry will be made in the poll and will be visible via web page or likewise.

For example network operator wants to know how user feel about his network services. Follow this.

Goto Features / Manage Poll

Click on Add SMS poll

Now Add details, like

10- Creating COMMAND to be executed via SMS

You can create COMMAND base system and can execute script on the playSMS server, and it can reply you back with the result. For example If we want to inquire the UPTIME details via SMS.

• Goto Features / Manage Command
• Click on ADD SMS COMMAND
• in SMS command keyword, add the catching word which playSMS will detect and consider it as COMMAND sms, and will run the command.
• in SMS command exec, type the name of script (example status.sh) which will be executed , Make sure your scripts are in following folder

/var/lib/playsms/sms_command/1

• Click on Make Return as Reply
• Click on SAVE

As showed in the image below …

Now at playSMS server console , goto /var/lib/playsms/sms_command/1 and create simple script like.

• touch status.sh
• chmod + status.sh
• nano status.sh
• and add following command in it

uptime

Save & exit. And also run this command to verify if its working on console fine.

Now send sms to playSMS server like

run status.sh

and you will be replied back shortly from playSMS with the uptime status.
As showed in the image below …

11- Scheduling SMS to be send at specific time to person or group

Goto My Account / Schedule Message
and click on Add SMS Schedule

.

First click on MANAGE (File Icon) and add the destination number and time

Click on SAVE and click on BACK, MAKE SURE TO click click on STATUS button (which is by default ORANGE means disabled, click it on to make GREEN, ACTIVE, This is important.

and here you can see the activity of playSMS in logs at that specific time.
