Asterisk::AGI - Simple Asterisk Gateway Interface Class

SYNOPSIS

use Asterisk::AGI;

$AGI = new Asterisk::AGI;

# pull AGI variables into %input

DESCRIPTION

This module should make it easier to write scripts that interact with the asterisk open source pbx via AGI (asterisk gateway interface)

MODULE COMMANDS

$AGI->setcallback($funcref)
Set function to execute when call is hungup or function returns error.

Example: $AGI->setcallback(\&examplecallback);

AGI COMMANDS

$AGI->answer()
Executes AGI Command ``ANSWER''

Answers channel if not already in answer state

Example: $AGI->answer();

Returns: -1 on channel failure, or 0 if successful

$AGI->channel_status([$channel])
Executes AGI Command ``CHANNEL STATUS $channel''

Returns the status of the specified channel. If no channel name is given the returns the status of the current channel.

Example: $AGI->channel_status();

Returns: -1 Channel hungup or error
         0 Channel is down and available
         1 Channel is down, but reserved
         2 Channel is off hook

$AGI->control_stream_file($filename, $digits [, $skipms [, $ffchar [, $rewchar [, $pausechar]]]])
Executes AGI Command ``CONTROL STREAM FILE $filename $digits [$skipms [$ffchar [$rewchar [$pausechar]]]]''

Send the given file, allowing playback to be controled by the given digits, if any. Use double quotes for the digits if you wish none to be permitted. Remember, the file extension must not be included in the filename.

Note: ffchar and rewchar default to * and # respectively.

Example: $AGI->control_stream_file('status', 'authorized');

Returns: -1 on error or hangup;
         0 if playback completes without a digit being pressed;
         the ASCII numerical value of the digit of one was pressed.

$AGI->database_del($family, $key)
Executes AGI Command ``DATABASE DEL $family $key''

Removes database entry <family>/<key>

Example: $AGI->database_del('test', 'status');

Returns: 1 on success, 0 otherwise

$AGI->database_deltree($family, $key)
Executes AGI Command ``DATABASE DELTREE $family $key''

Deletes a family or specific keytree within a family in the Asterisk database

Returns: 1 on success, 0 otherwise

$AGI->database_get($family, $key)
Executes AGI Command ``DATABASE GET $family $key''

Example: $var = $AGI->database_get('test', 'status');

Example: $AGI->database_put('test', 'status', 'authorized');

Returns: 1 on success, 0 otherwise

$AGI->exec($app, $options)
Executes AGI Command ``EXEC $app ''$options""

The most powerful AGI command. Executes the given application passing the given options.

Returns: -2 on failure to find application, or whatever the given application returns

$AGI->get_data($filename, $timeout, $maxdigits)
Executes AGI Command ``GET DATA $filename $timeout $maxdigits''

Streams $filename and returns when $maxdigits have been received or when $timeout has been reached. Timeout is specified in ms

Example: $AGI->get_data('demo-welcome', 15000, 5);

$AGI->get_full_variable($variable [, $channel])
Executes AGI Command ``GET FULL VARIABLE $variablename $channel''

Similar to get_variable, but additionally understands complex variable names and builtin variables. If $channel is not set, uses the current channel.

Example: $AGI->get_full_variable('status', 'SIP/4382');

Returns: The value of the variable, or undef if variable does not exist

$AGI->get_option($filename, $digits [, $timeout])
Executes AGI Command ``GET OPTION $filename $digits $timeout''

Behaves similar to STREAM FILE but used with a timeout option.

Streams $filename and returns when $digits is pressed or when $timeout has been reached. Timeout is specified in ms. If $timeout is not specified, the command will only terminate on the $digits set. $filename can be an array of files or a single filename.

Example: $AGI->get_option('demo-welcome', '#', 15000);          $AGI->get_option(['demo-welcome', 'demo-echotest'], '#', 15000);

$AGI->get_variable($variable)
Executes AGI Command ``GET VARIABLE $variablename''

Gets the channel variable <variablename>

Example: $AGI->get_variable('status');

Returns: The value of the variable, or undef if variable does not exist

$AGI->hangup($channel)
Executes AGI Command ``HANGUP $channel''

Hangs up the passed $channel, or the current channel if $channel is not passed. It is left to the AGI script to exit properly, otherwise you could end up with zombies.

Example: $AGI->hangup();

Returns: Always returns 1

$AGI->noop()
Executes AGI Command ``NOOP''

Does absolutely nothing except pop up a log message.
 Useful for outputting debugging information to the Asterisk console.

Example: $AGI->noop(``Test Message'');

Returns: -1 on hangup or error, 0 otherwise

$AGI->receive_char($timeout)

Example: $AGI->receive_char(3000);

Returns: Returns the decimal value of the character if one is received, or 0 if the channel does not support text reception. Returns -1 only on error/hangup.

$AGI->receive_text($timeout)
Executes AGI Command ``RECEIVE TEXT $timeout''

Receives a string of text on a channel. Specify timeout to be the maximum time to wait for input in milliseconds, or 0 for infinite. Most channels do not support the reception of text.

Example: $AGI->receive_text(3000);

Returns: Returns the string of text if received, or -1 for failure, error or hangup.

$AGI->record_file($filename, $format, $digits, $timeout, $beep, $offset, $beep, $silence)
Executes AGI Command ``RECORD FILE $filename $format $digits $timeout [$offset [$beep [s=$silence]]]''

Record to a file until $digits are received as dtmf. The $format will specify what kind of file will be recorded. The $timeout is the maximum record time in milliseconds, or -1 for no timeout.

$offset samples is optional, and if provided will seek to the offset without exceeding the end of the file.

$silence is the number of seconds of silence allowed before the function returns despite the lack of dtmf digits or reaching timeout.

Example: $AGI->record_file('foo', 'wav', '#', '5000', '0', 1, '2');

Returns: 1 on success, -1 on hangup or error.

$AGI->say_alpha($string, $digits)
Executes AGI Command ``SAY ALPHA $string $digits''

Say a given character string, returning early if any of the given DTMF $digits are received on the channel.

Returns Example: $AGI->say_alpha('Joe Smith', '#');

         the ASCII numerical value of the digit if one was pressed;
         -1 on error/hangup.

$AGI->say_date($time [, $digits])
$AGI->say_time($time [, $digits])
$AGI->say_datetime($time [, $digits [, $format [, $timezone]]])
Executes AGI Command ``SAY DATE $number $digits'' Executes AGI Command ``SAY TIME $number $digits'' Executes AGI Command ``SAY DATETIME $number $digits $format $timezone''
