It would be convenient for some users to be able to react to dialing
events without having to hack extensions.conf.
NOTE: This patch depends on the the dialparties patches I submitted
earlier today.
Right now, this patch exposes the following events to
extensions_custom.conf:
custom-dial-starting (before Dial() is executed)
custom-dial-answered (call has been answered)
custom-dial-ended (call has been ended)
custom-dialout-starting (before Dial() is executed)
custom-dialout-answered (call has been answered)
custom-dialout-ended (call has ended)
The events can be captured by defining macros in extensions_custom.conf
with the event names listed above:
[macro-custom-dial-ended]
exten => s,1,NoOp(“Incoming or Internal call has completed”)
[macro-custom-dialout-starting]
exten => s,1,NoOp(“About to dial out”)
I think it would be nice to see other events exposed, such as “Voicemail
Left”, “Fax Sent”, and “Fax Received”, but I’d like some input before
devoting anymore energy to this. What events would everyone else like
to see, and at what point in the dialplan should they be exposed?
I’m aware that there are other dialout and dial events that are not
exposed by this patch. I’ve tested this with the dialplan we use, which
is admittedly pretty simple. I’d like feedback from others about using
this with more complex dialing plans (follow-me, hunt groups, etc). Is
this generating events appropriately?
Is this idea even something that should be included in freepbx? I think
so, because the more power we expose to extensions_custom.conf, the
fewer reasons anyone has for messing with extensions.conf and the
smoother future upgrades will be.
Let me know what you think,
