1. Overview

This guide describes how to integrate UniMRCP server library into 3-rd party applications to provide MRCP v1/v2 server capabilities. Perhaps stand alone UniMRCP server application built on top of UniMRCP server library can be used instead.

2. Server Stack Initialization

Start server stack processing

Sample code below shows one-time creation of server stack instance.

#include "unimrcp_server.h"

/* create default directory layout relative to root directory path */
apt_dir_layout_t *dir_layout = apt_default_dir_layout_create(root_dir_path,pool);
/* start server stack processing */
mrcp_server_t *server = unimrcp_server_start(dir_layout);

3. Server Stack Deinitialization

Shutdown server stack processing

/* shutdown server stack processing */
unimrcp_server_shutdown(server);

4. References

• Fully functional unimrcpserver application built on top of libunimrcpserver library can be found in the platforms/unimrcp-server directory of the source tree.
• UML based design concepts include hierarchy, activity and sequence diagrams of the server stack.

5. F.A.Q.

• I need MRCP server for my ASR/TTS engine. Should I write another application based on libunimrcpserver library?

No, you shouldn't. You just need to implement another plugin for unimrcpserver application using your ASR/TTS engine. See plugin implementation guide for more info.

• When would I need to write another application based on libunimrcpserver library taking into account that unimrcpserver application already exists?

Suppose you have already implemented a media server application and want to enhance it with MRCP server capabilities. In this case you can easily integrate libunimrcpserver library into your media server.
