I've got an agi script that calls the directory function, which seems to
work to a point. However, once the caller has selected an entry, I need
my agi script to find out which extension was selected. I've RTFM'd and
don't see that the extension is returned. Nor is a variable set, as far
as I can see.
Is there a way to get this information from the directory application?
No channel variable is set, but it would be a simple modification to the
source code to return the extension instead of dialing it.
Another course of action would be to break your AGI into 2 parts and then
'catch' the exten in the 'dial-context.' For example, assuming you are
using the 'default' voicemail context and the 'directory-test'
dial-context, you would execute the directory application like (1.2):
exec_agi("exec directory default|directory-test");
and then in your dialplan you would have something like:
[directory-test]
exten = _!.,1, verbose(1,[${EXTEN}@${CONTEXT}])
exten = _!.,n, agi(part-two,--extension=${EXTEN})
exten = _!.,n, hangup()
