Call detailed records (CDRs) are logs containing detailed information related to phone calls, such as: the time they were initiated, their origin and the destination addresses, the call duration etc.
To write the call detailed records (CDRs) you can use one of Yate’s predefined options: write to a file or to a database.
Writing the CDRs to a file
To enable writing the CDRs to a file edit cdrfile.conf and set:
- comma separated values (.csv)
- tabs separated values (.tsv)
Example
The file where CRDs are written is /var/log/yate-cdr.csv. If you want to change the .csv predefined format, you can uncomment it in cdrfile.conf.
[general]
; file: string: Name of the file to write the CDR to
; You should check that this file is log rotated – see /etc/logrotate.d/yate
; Example: file=/var/log/yate-cdr.tsv
file=/var/log/yate-cdr.csv
; comma-separated (.csv), combined=false
