This is the HTML5 / GoLang / WebSocket version of our Vicidial agent wallboard.

Tested with Go v1.5.1

Our wallboard became very popular, on loads of screens and desktops all around the place! But for a while, that was it's own demise.

Using the old method of every instance polling a PHP script every second for updates, which would individually run all the required queries, it was quickly locking up the database server as the number of users increased.

As a soloution, this new method runs the queries only once, then sends them out to every connected user via their persistant WebSocket connection.

Plus, as an added bonus, everything looks a lot smoother and runs more fluidly! :).

• WebSockets by default (single set of queries to all users).
• Option for polling (each user runs their own set of queries, like the old wallboard).
• Inbound SLA & Drop rates in the main header (globally or per campaign, same as for the wait times).

• Edit files for DB config (main.go), SLA time (agent_status.go).
• Make sure you're in the folder, then go build should produce an executable named pbx_wallboard
• Copy pbx_wallboard plus the folders wallboard_html & wallboard_templates into a folder on your server.
• Place data.json from your old wallboard install in the same folder (generating this not currently supported).
• Run pbx_wallboard in a screen, detach and leave running!
• You can access via:
  • WebSocket version: http://<server>:8888/wallboard/
  • Polling version: http://<server>:8888/wallboard/poll.html
  • Status JSON: http://<server>:8888/wallboard/status
  • Edit Layout: http://<server>:8888/wallboard/edit.html
    • Beware this layout editor is unauthenticated and will allow arbitrary post data to be written to data.json
    • It is advisable to secure both this URL and the save endpoint http://<server>:8888/wallboard/save with some kind of auth / restriction.
• We use nginx to reverse proxy to ours, for SSL & if running two instances on different ports, you can have a backup.
