CakePHP SMS Component
- Posted by admin on March 3rd, 2008 filed in php
I started this blog shortly after getting into Python after becoming fed up with PHP. Then into Rails and it became (sort of) a Rails and Ruby blog. I've now gone full circle back to my old school days of PHP and have been tinkering with CakePHP recently after getting a taste for MVC architecture working on Rails and Django - I've been very impressed so far.
Now to the nuts and bolts of the post: I'm releasing a CakePHP component which makes use of the Clickatell HTTP API to send SMS messages.
I'll soon be putting up a tutorial with examples at the CakePHP Bakery which I'll link to from this post soon! Until then here's the code for anyone who's interested: Google Code page for Clickatell SMS Component
Comments, suggestions and feedback is very much welcomed. There is already a large todo list as you'll see but it will be getting crossed off in the next few weeks.
I'll soon be releasing a CakePHP component for Asterisk to provide call origination from your CakePHP apps.

Very cool component. I’ll have too look for a reason to try to include this in a future project.
