My suggestion is to post a project on Odesk and I can help you look through the candidates.  In general, you're looking for people who have at least 100 hours, reasonable rate, Eastern European (or Pakistan if you want cheap), not too many open projects (or they're too busy), good feedback etc.

About

This page is dedicated for programmers who are integrating MOR into other products or modifying MOR GUI.



Facts about MOR

Technologies used

  • Ruby on Rails - GUI
  • MySQL - used for data storage
  • Asterisk - used for interconnecting the calls.
  • CentOS Linux - platform. Other Linux distributions might work but are not supported by Kolmisoft.
  • Apache - a web server



MOR Development Machine

We advise you to create a development machine where you could test your changes. A development machine can be prepared by following this guide:

MOR installation

It will be a fully functioning MOR system with a 2 calls limit.



MOR API

Reasons to use MOR API

  • MOR API allows you to perform some operations without modifying the GUI - does not require any Ruby on Rails knowledge.
  • MOR API can be used in any programming language which supports sending POST requests.
  • When you modify a GUI directly - each time MOR system is updated - your changes are overwritten by MOR upgrade scripts. Your changes are backuped and it is your responsibility to merge those changes back.



MOR users that are allowed to use MOR API

  • Admin
  • Reseller
  • Accountant



Operations supported by MOR API


And many more...

A full MOR API documentation is available here.

Sending a POST request in various programming languages to MOR

Remember, you have to send your requests to MOR's URL. No libraries provided by Kolmisoft are needed to send POST requests to MOR. Every programming language provides it's own libraries for this task.



Facts/commands you should know

  • MOR GUI is located in /home/mor and can be accessed using a SSH supporting client like Filezilla
  • When you modify a ruby code - you have to restart the web server for the changes to take effect:
/etc/init.d/httpd restart
[root@localhost ~]# cat /root/phpMyAdminPassword
Login and Password from phpMyAdmin system: admin t5Hg1PR1yu
  • Changes in /home/mor/public are not overwritten during updates - that allows you to change default MOR images and CSS.
  • Using this command you can determine a current MOR version and revision:
svn info /home/mor



Useful tools

  • When your changes are overwritten by MOR upgrade scripts - you can restore them easier with merge tools like: Winmerge which shows you the differences between files and allows you to merge as you go.



Custom features development

Your custom developed MOR features can be integrated into main code base.

Please check here for requirements in order the features would be integrated.


Recommended developers

We recommend to find a developer that will help you with integrations in https://www.odesk.com/ which is world's largest online workplace where companies hire freelancers to get the job done.

Here's a feedback from one of our clients who has successfully used freelancer from Odesk to do integrations with MOR:
