💅 AELPARSE — ok so like, the vibe check for your extensions.ael

bestie, welcome to aelparse(8) — section 8 of the manual, asterisk trunk era, and she is serving "I check your config before it embarrasses you in production" 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

aelparse — a whole utility whose entire job is checking extensions.ael for errors 👑 no cap, that's it, that's the girlboss.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

aelparse [-d] [-n] [-q] [-w]

look at her. four flags. minimal. iconic. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so here's the tea: aelparse is a utility that checks your extensions.ael configuration file before you feed it to asterisk. 🍼✨

it's giving "bestie, let me read your essay before you submit it" and honestly? we should all be so lucky. you run it, it tells you if your AEL is a mess, and then you hand it over to asterisk with confidence instead of chaos. 💖

💖 OPTIONS 💖

  • -d — use the current working directory as the CONFIG_DIR. so like, instead of wherever it normally looks, it's looking right here where you're standing. 🫶
  • -n — do not display the instructions generated by the compiler. you know how it wants to show you everything it made? not today, girl. keep it to yourself. 🙈
  • -q — suppress progress and non-error messages. quiet mode activated 🤫 only the actual errors get to speak. if it's not a problem, it does not get a mic. 🎤
  • -w — dump extensions.conf format to extensions.conf.aeldump. it literally writes a whole file for you called extensions.conf.aeldump. very "here's your homework in a different font" of her. 📝✨
fr fr, every single one of these is a flag you actually type, so don't get cute and invent your own. 🌈
