A tiny RESTful modem server

This is SlingshotSMS, a minimal SMS server which connects GSM modems to websites and applications via a simple HTTP interface.

Experimental

Hi! This is the experimental branch of SlingshotSMS. Here's what's different and better:

• Minimal slingshotsms.py core: it's lost a hundred lines of code since Goliath and does things in a much more concise fashion
• Multiple messages with JSON: now fewer POSTs required when you have a lot of messages going from place to place
• Way better testing functionality: interactive mode lets you test web applications quickly
• More straightforward configuration
• Uses CherryPy's logging facilities, so logs are easily redirected and repurposed

Requirements

• AT-compatible GSM modem

Modem Compatibility

• pygsm's wiki
• http://code.google.com/p/smslib/wiki/Compatibility

Mac

• Double-click on SlingshotSMS.command

Windows

• Double-click on slingshotsms.exe

Running Manually

python slingshotsms.py

Manual Installation

• Install required libraries
• Drop into directory
• Edit slingshotsms.txt
• run python slingshotsms.py

Configuration

• mock=yes

  will run sms_server without trying to connect to a server, to test applications on the ability to POST and receive POST data

• sms_poll

  is the wait time between asking the modem for new messages database_file can specify what file the database will be on. Since this uses sqlObject, the database engine itself is flexible, but thread safety is a concern because the poller runs on a separate thread from the web server

How to integrate with drupal 7

It sounds to be a great project. I have also read your post on medium about the testing on the field and how you visualized the data on drupal.

I am very excited, but I am not a technical person or dev. Is there any module or guide to integrate it with drupal 7?
