Shtoom is a VoIP client and server implemented in Python. It supports Linux and Unix-like platforms as well as Windows and OS X.
Shtoom is a pure-python VoIP client and other applications, using SIP.
At the moment it's functionality is not complete, but is growing quickly:
- Qt, Tk, Gnome, wxWidgets, Cocoa or text user interface
- Can make and receive calls - tested with kphone, linphone, xten and
cisco AS5x00 running 12.3, as well as with Asterisk and Quotient.
- Can register with SIP proxies/location services. Tested with
divmod.com's Quotient, Asterisk, and FWD (http://
- Uses the G711 ULAW codec by default, GSM 06.10 or Speex
(GSM and Speex require an additional python module, see below)
- It should work on any system with ossaudiodev, CoreAudio (OSX),
ALSA (many systems), or on most other systems (with the
fastaudio/
below)
- Doug, the shtoom application server, makes it very easy to write
simple voice applications.
