SMS Server

Foxchip5 years ago

Hello Anton,
we have developped an API to send SMS with a 4G router (so no cost to send SMS)
We have an URL to send SMS like this :

http://192.168.3.240:8088/API-SMSHUAWEI/sendsms.php?password=0000000&phone=xxxxx&message=xxxxx

We can share it if you want
Is it possible to configure traccar to use it?

No, you need post with parameters in the payload.

sorry but could you explain
I discover traccar since 1 month

He probably means that unless you have a SMPP server, you can not simply configure Traccar to use your 4G router. There are free SMPP servers that you probably could use to make your own SMS server.

The issue is that the only one that I found that claims to serve SMPP is Jasmin (https://jasmin.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) - it's probably abandoned since it's website is gone, and last source update was 7 months ago. I think it's your best bet, the biggest problem would probably be to compile it and make it run with no community help.

You can also use Kannel (www.kannel.org) + opensmppbox + your 4G router
The way of the SMS:
Traccar server -> SMPP protocol -> opensmppbox -> bearerbox -> http SMSC -> http link like you mention.
I had used Kannel since 2006 in many server implementations.

@Foxchip
Did you send sms by:

http://192.168.3.240:8088/API-SMSHUAWEI/sendsms.php?password=0000000&phone=xxxxx&message=xxxxx

I have exactly the same problem.
