VoIP configuration for Docker containers

Asterisk

To display call pop-up windows and ensure the Asterisk provider works correctly in the Docker instance, you need to use either a daemon in the Docker Compose environment or add a line to the crontab. Choose one of these approaches (either the daemon or the crontab line).

Daemon (recommended)

Note

This configuration is displayed for the official EspoCRM container.

Add the following container to your docker-compose.yml file:

espocrm-daemon-voip:
  image: espocrm/espocrm:latest
  container_name: espocrm-daemon-voip
  volumes:
    - espocrm:/var/www/html
  restart: always
  entrypoint: []
  command: ["php", "/var/www/html/command.php", "voip", "Asterisk"]

Crontab line

Important

This line should be added under root or other docker user.

* * * * * /usr/bin/docker exec --user WEBSERVER_USER -i ESPOCRM_DOCKER-CONTAINER /bin/bash -c "cd /var/www/html; php -f command.php voip Asterisk" > /dev/null 2>&1

Replace WEBSERVER_USER with one of the following values: www-data, www, apache, etc., depending on your web server.
