Kazoo File Format Converter Library#

The Kazoo converter provides a core library for converting file formats.

Modules#

The converters used to execute file conversions are modular, modules can be enabled via configuration. This core library is intended to be extended to include multiple types of conversions and formats and be easily extendable by supporting selection of which modules to use via the system_config/kazoo_convert document. Currently only fax conversions are done via the converter. But there are many other types of file conversions going on in Kazoo. Stay tuned...

Fax Converter#

The fax converter module by default use the module fax_converter. For a description of how the default fax converter fax_converter works, and information about the system commands used in fax file conversions, see the fax converter documentation.

Configuration#

The v2/system_configs/kazoo_convert configuration parameters are used to enable features and define commands to use for conversion operations.
