deanturpin/asterisk repository overview

⁠deanturpin/asterisk

See the Dockerfile⁠.

At build time, example sip.conf and extensions.conf files are copied into the container; at run time, the secret is replaced with the contents of the SECRET file (if not empty) and Asterisk is started.

⁠Run from Docker Hub

docker run --rm -it --network=host deanturpin/asterisk

⁠Show peers

Using the CLI tool rasterisk.

docker exec -it <containerid> rasterisk
> sip show peers

⁠Dump the config

To reveal the secrets.

!cat /etc/asterisk/sip.conf

⁠Override the secret

Clearly leaving the password as default is a bit of a security hole so you can override it a run time with something unique to your host.

docker run --rm -it --network=host -v /etc/machine-id:/app/SECRET asterisk

Equally, you could just map in your own sip.conf and extensions.conf files at run time.

⁠Develop the container

Clone the repo⁠, then just type make to build and run and container locally.

⁠Tips and tricks

To assist with your network discovery.

# Start the container but just run bash
make bash

# Dump the network interfaces of the container without running Asterisk
make ip

# Find your endpoints
docker run -it --rm --network=host deanturpin/shh

# Check your ports are open
ss -an | grep 5060
