ver 0.7.0 - plugin add a few parameter to conf invite

[Labi4]

Hi.

i have a strange situation. when i try to create a new meeting via plugin it's add a phone numbers and pincode. but my installation is not include SIP and JWP.

if option phoneNumberListEndpoint is not set at config i will see string api.jitsi.net at config file and get a lot of phone numbers at invitation. if i set to to my server - i will get a lot of errors.

same for option conferenceMapperEndpoint.

at plugin ver 0.6.6 we had not such issue.

same problem here
The plugin now requires to have access to api.jitsi.net to query the conference mapper
and if you don't have the access or the conference mapper is not present in self hosted jitsi installation

you get errors and the conference link is not generated

I see. So I guess that if you're offline and try and create a meeting it will also break

i just mean that will be nice to have opportunity to disable this messages to prevent a additional question from users.

Hi. Have same problem. Dont need any tel numbers in meeting creation, just jitsi link.

I just experienced the same behavior.

Workaround
We used to have Jibri integrated for SIP-integration but don't have it integrated anymore, that rang a bell. A while back I wrote two php scripts that would handle the list of phone numbers and the conference mapper itself. Now what you could do is to provide your plugin configuration with two URIs, let's say

conferenceMapperEndpoint = https://jitsi.mycompany.com/conferencemapper.php
phoneNumberListEndpoint = https://jitsi.mycompany.com/phonenumberlist.php

Next thing you should do is write two php scripts that are available under above mentioned address (these are examples but you know what I mean). Haven't tested, but maybe plain textfiles would do the job as well but you have to try. These scripts should output the following:
conferencemapper.php
{"message":"None"}

phonenumberlist:
{"message":"None","numbersEnabled":false}

That's it. Now neither will the plugin complain, nor will there be any random numbers or pins be listed to your appointment.

How the developer could handle it
If these two configuration switches are being left empty, just do ignore their intended function. Don't use any default URIs because these are just senseless (except for integrators to see what data to expect) in live environments. Instead, just refrain from adding any related text contents that refer to these variables to the appointment text.
