pygooglevoice seems to be not working

[GoogleCodeExporter]

pygooglevoice isn't working for calls, and I was told that Google added a
new parameter.
Any way to get it updated?

Will someone please enlighten all of us on using:
easy_install pygooglevoice
vs
python setup.py install 

the python method failed (see comment 50)
but the easy_install method worked.
Or was it that easy_install method works after you try python setup.py install?

I know that explaining this takes a little time, but for those of use who try 
to 
follow and help others, we need to know why one method works, and one fails.  
Thanks.

cd /root
cd ~
root@pbx:~ $ easy_install pygooglevoice
Processing pygooglevoice
Running setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir /root/pygooglevoice/egg-dist-tmp-KP0OWn
zip_safe flag not set; analyzing archive contents...
pygooglevoice 0.4 is already the active version in easy-install.pth
Installing gvoice script to /usr/bin
Installing asterisk-gvoice-setup script to /usr/bin

Installed /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pygooglevoice-0.4-py2.4.egg
Processing dependencies for pygooglevoice==0.4

now gvoice is working again.

When you use easy_install it grabs the most recent distribution of the source 
code
(v0.4) from PyPI and installs it. When you use mercurial to clone the source 
code, it
is getting the most recent up to date, bleeding edge version from the repository
(~v0.5) which I am currently working on. Version 0.4 lacks the phoneType 
descriptor,
so placing calls wont work (fixed in tip). It also has a namespace collision 
with the
asterisk binary (fixed in tip). Im sorting out a couple more details with 
calling
methods and phoneType stuff and will be releasing v0.5 soon which should have 
most of
this stuff fixed. Use the mercurial clone for now, at least placing calls 
should be
working.

Thank you for taking the time to explain the differences.  I will bookmark it.

Rather than troubleshooting the current bleeding edge using "python setup.py 
install", I will wait for 0.5.  Thanks.

I'm using the mercurial source, and I am unable to get it to place any outgoing 
calls
(same HTTP 500 error as above), comment #53 said it should be able to place 
calls. I
have a GV acct setup with a home, mobile, and gizmo5 number and it doesn't work 
with
any. I've tried every combination of phoneType imaginable, LiveHTTPHeaders 
confirms
that 1,2,and 7, are correct for me also. Does outgoing calling currently work 
for
anyone? Is there any other outlet where further general pygooglevoice 
discussion is
going on? Thanks.

The latest mercurial source is working for me from the command line if I add the
phone type to the end of the line (eg % gvoice -e username -p password call
outgoingnumber incomingnumber phoneType), however I can no longer get it to 
work in
my asterisk configuration, even though I modified the configuration to reflect 
the
phone type.

Also, pygooglevoice now takes ~25 seconds to login successfully, where it was 
much
faster before.  Has anyone else noticed this?

I deleted everything, at least i think so, re cloned (hg clone
https://pygooglevoice.googlecode.com/hg/ pygooglevoice
), reinstalled (python setup.py install) and still get the 500 error. I don't 
have
any sort of long delay logging in though. Is there any problem with having 
multiple
numbers verified in my GV account? Don't think there should be. Also, do you 
need the
1 before any numbers? I've tried it both ways, neither seems to make any 
difference.
Did you just add the number for phoneType at the the end of your command line?
Doesn't work for my mobile (2) or my gizmo5 (7). I do appreciate all of the 
devs work
though, it is great. Thanks

I was having permision issues with my asterisk setup.  For some reason the 
~/.gvoice 
was not mapping correctly to ~asterisk/.gvoice and I belive was using 
/root/.gvoice 
instead.  I hardcoded the setting in 
pygooglevoice/guild/lib/googlevoice/conf.py to 
point to my ~asterisk/.gvoice location.  After running the gvoice script a few 
times 
using 'sudo asterisk gvoice call', I was able to get the call back to work 
correctly.  I don't need to add the extra phonetype parameter in my 
extensions_custom.conf file.  It appears to be pulling it from the 
~asterisk/.gvoice 
file correctly.

This is a hack solution but at least it works for me.  I'm not sure why 
~/.gvoice is 
not properly getting mapped to my /var/lib/asterisk location when gvoice runs 
as 
asterisk user.  Hopefully justquick can find a real solution.

I'm also noticing the login to google voice taking approximately 10 to 15 
seconds, 
much longer than previously.

I have just released version 0.5. Here is what has changed:

  * Lowered network traffic used in parsing feeds
  * asterisk-gvoice-setup
  * Call fixes

This should solve most of the problems above. Full *shiny* documentation is now
available at http://sphinxdoc.github.com/pygooglevoice/

citsam: it doesnt matter where the example .gvoice conf is installed, for 
whichever
user runs gvoice it checks in their home folder and nowhere else. I have 
noticed that
the voice service is takin a bit longer to login myself, but the fixes in 0.5 
should
help improve network traffic.

• Changed state: Fixed

Ok great work on the delay issue!  I updated to 0.5 and the connection times 
are 
back to being < 1 second.

For some reason my setup (PBX in a Flash) does not have the asterisk user set 
to 
point to a proper home directory.  It points to /var/lib/asterisk.  That 
shouldn't 
be an issue but for some reason ~/ doesn't map to ~asterisk/ for the asterisk 
user.  
Whatever the case, I still need to hack the conf.py to point to 
~asterisk/.gvoice 
rather than ~/.gvoice.  

Hopefully my setup is an isolated instance and it works correctly for everyone 
else.

Thanks for the the great work on this!

I just installed 0.5 and this issue is still very present.

Still occurring today :(
I'll see if I can track this down any further.
