Gammu runonreceive doesnt passing variables


i want to configure my Rapsberry as a SMS Ping Pong Player. So i installed gammu-smsd and configured the gammu-smsdrc as follows:

# Configuration file for Gammu SMS Daemon

# Gammu library configuration, see gammurc(5)
[gammu]
# Please configure this!
port = /dev/ttyUSB3
pin= 4135
connection = at
# Debugging
logformat = textall

# SMSD configuration, see gammu-smsdrc(5)
[smsd]
RunOnReceive = sudo /var/spool/gammu/receivesms.sh
service = files
pin = 4135
# Increase for debugging information
debuglevel = 1
logfile = /var/spool/gammu/gammu.log
include_smsc = 491722270333

# Paths where messages are stored
inboxpath = /var/spool/gammu/inbox/
outboxpath = /var/spool/gammu/outbox/
sentsmspath = /var/spool/gammu/sent/
errorsmspath = /var/spool/gammu/error/

so far, sending sms an receiving sms works fine!

So i tried that runonreceive thing. and wrote a small script which should get the sms sender number and the text. and if the text is "ping" gammu-smsd should send pong back to the sender.

reveivessms.sh:

#!/bin/sh
from=$SMS_1_NUMBER
message=$SMS_1_TEXT
reply=""

if test "$message" = "Ping"; then
    reply="Pong!"
else
    reply="Y U NO PLAY PING PONG?"
fi


sudo echo "$reply" | /usr/bin/gammu-smsd-inject -c /etc/gammu-smsdrc TEXT "$from"

gammu.log is:

hmm no message replied...

so i tried without passing Parameters and changed the receivesms.sh to:

#!/bin/sh
sudo echo Gude Wie | /usr/bin/gammu-smsd-inject -c /etc/gammu-smsdrc TEXT 49160xxxx

and everything is working. Seems, that the variable passing to the receicesms.sh doesn't work. But i have no idea why?


Solution

  • Getting run on receive to send a sms reply with gammu-smsd-inject was a mission.

    For anyone else coming across this issue. I solved it by redirecting stdout and stderr of the gammu-smsd-inject command to /dev/null.

    echo "This somehow works" | gammu-smsd-inject TEXT $from > /dev/null 2>&1
