Installation
Download from Web
The simplest way of installing Dynamic Routes is to go to the Module Admin menu under the Admin menu. There choose the option "Upload Modules". Copy and paste the link to the latest version (from this page) into the "Download Remote Module" field and click on "Download (From Web)"
Ater downloading
Manual upload
Download the latest source code file from this link. The souce code is signed with my gpg key (available here). Thefore you may optionaly verify the file has not been altered since I signed it. After downloading the file signature (available here) at the command line gpg --import johnfawcett.gpg gpg --verify dynroute-2.11.0.0.tgz.sig The result should be something like this: gpg: Good signature from "John Fawcett <[email protected]>" In freepbx GUI go to module administration (Menu Admin -> Module Admin) and upload the dynroute file (Upload local modules).

Upgrading
Dynamic Routes is not part of the FreePBX core modules and the latest versions are published in GitHub rather than in the FreePBX contributed modules repository (*). As such there is no automatic way to get news about updates. If you would like to be informed of when new updates are available, please email me with the subject line "Dynamic Routes updates". Please do not use the version in the FreePBX repository because it is out of date.
The upgrade process is the same as the installation process. Follow the steps above. The installation automatically detects the presence of a previous version and upgrades it. If you find any issues please let me know.
(*) To include the software in the FreePBX repository requires the execution of a contract with Sangoma called the Code Submission Agreement. Although this is the same or similar text used by Asterisk, as it is currently worded I am unable to sign it.
