## PostgreSQL

If you want to go directly to postgresql database, and have the cdr_pgsql.so compiled you can use the following sample setup. On Debian, before compiling asterisk, just install libpqxx-dev. Other distros will likely have a similiar package.

Once you have the compile done, copy the sample cdr_pgsql.conf file or create your own.

Here is a sample:

-             /etc/asterisk/cdr_pgsql.conf
                ; Sample Asterisk config file for CDR logging to PostgresSQL
                [global]
                hostname=localhost
                port=5432
                dbname=asterisk
                password=password
                user=postgres
                table=cdr

Now create a table in postgresql for your cdrs

-             CREATE TABLE cdr (
                      calldate      time               NOT NULL ,
                      clid          varchar (80)          NOT NULL ,
                      src           varchar (80)          NOT NULL ,
                      dst           varchar (80)          NOT NULL ,
                      dcontext      varchar (80)          NOT NULL ,
                      channel       varchar (80)          NOT NULL ,
                      dstchannel    varchar (80)          NOT NULL ,
                      lastapp       varchar (80)          NOT NULL ,
                      lastdata      varchar (80)          NOT NULL ,
                      duration      int                   NOT NULL ,
                      billsec       int                   NOT NULL ,
                      disposition   varchar (45)          NOT NULL ,
                      amaflags      int                   NOT NULL ,
                      accountcode   varchar (20)          NOT NULL ,
                      uniqueid      varchar (150)         NOT NULL ,
                      userfield     varchar (255)         NOT NULL
              );
