RE: FW: [asterisk-users] Get dialed numbers in AGI
Ralph Morning - no, what I meant was that *I* was kind of new to * and I'm learning AGI while working thru my first AGI script too Let me see if I can explain my point better this time, it was a pretty weak attempt below. The key point is that the $argv[] array variables are only available at the initial AGI script startup. The first time you call the AGI script from the dialplan any params passed in would be exposed in $argv[]. In the script snippet that I found and included with the email that I sent below it appeared to me that you did the following: from the dialplan call the AGI script and pass in a variable from within the AGI script you did some stuff while within the AGI script you did this: fwrite(STDOUT,exec Read my_var|/sound_to_play|5|||15 \n); since: 1 - this command from the AGI is being passed back in to * while the AGI script is running in a manner akin to a shell or child process (I don't think that is actually a child, but conceptually it might help to think of it this way for the purpose of this example) 2 - the script does not stop and then restart 3 - $argv can only be populated at script startup 4 - $argv cannot be populated with a new value in this way since there is no restart in the dialplan snippet above my_var can only come back in thru $argv[] This is my theory only, I have not tested this Others have made mention that the phpAGI class might be helpful to achieve your goal, while I have not looked into phpAGI I'd think that it would too. Native php AGI scripting seems to be pretty primitive (but its great to have it there). md -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ralph Liebessohn Sent: Friday, January 12, 2007 2:13 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: FW: [asterisk-users] Get dialed numbers in AGI On 1/11/07, Mike D'Ambrogia [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ralph Kind of new to asterisk, and really new to AGI but it looks like you were trying to have the AGI script tell asterisk to read and lay the results into my_var and then regain control in the AGI script, is that correct?

RE: FW: [asterisk-users] Get dialed numbers in AGI
just as a followup and potential solution to the passing of values, I've been setting variables at the top of the dialplan using : exten = 100,n,Set(my_var=SomeValue) Now I can modify my_var in the dialplan, and I can get/set my_var in the AGI script via GET VARIABLE and SET VARIABLE You'll need to modify your current overall programming strategy in order to implement this. But do the READ that you are attempting from within the dial plan and not the AGI script, and either update my_var prior to calling the AGI, or pass my_var in to the AGI as a param. I've been calling my AGI with an extra param that helps the script determine where I am in the logic, i.e. if I pass in the extra param with a -1 then I'm at the beginning of the logic, if I pass in a -2 then I know that I've got the variables available and set so that I can do my mysql inserts, etc. On the AGI side I trap the value of the extra param in a switch stmt and then execute the approp block of code based on the value. md ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Ralph,
Is there a special reason you need to Read() from inside AGI? If not, the
following should work:
--- snippet from extensions.conf
exten = s,1,Read(my_var|sound-file|5|||15)
exten = s,2,AGI(MyAGI,${my_var})
--- snippet ends
--- snippet from MyAGI
$conn=odbc_connect('MSSQL', 'USER', 'PASS');
$query = odbc_exec($conn, INSERT INTO dialed(number) VALUES('$argv[1]'));
fwrite(STDOUT,exec saydigits $argv[1] \n);
--- snippet ends
Yuan Liu
AGI Rx exec read my_var|sound-file|5|||15
-- AGI Script Executing Application: (read) Options:
(my_var|sound-file|5|||15)
-- Accepting a maximum of 5 digits.
-- Playing 'sound-file' (language 'en')
-- User entered '85214'
AGI Tx 200 result=0
AGI Rx get variable my_var
AGI Tx 200 result=1 (85214)
AGI Rx exec saydigits Resource id #1 // (this is the result of my_var)
All the variables here was my_var, it worked for GET VARIABLE but didn't
for
SAYDIGITS and odbc connection. How can I SAYDIGITS of my_var or insert
my_var value into a db?
- What I need more to use WAIT FOR DIGIT? Because it didn't stop to wait
for
digits.
- STDIN shoudn't get the result of READ or GET VARIABLE? Where these values
go?

RE: FW: [asterisk-users] Get dialed numbers in AGI
From: Mike D'Ambrogia [EMAIL PROTECTED] You'll need to modify your current overall programming strategy in order to implement this. But do the READ that you are attempting from within the dial plan and not the AGI script, and either update my_var prior to calling the AGI, or pass my_var in to the AGI as a param. Totally. I've been calling my AGI with an extra param that helps the script determine where I am in the logic, i.e. if I pass in the extra param with a -1 then I'm at the beginning of the logic, if I pass in a -2 then I know that I've got the variables available and set so that I can do my mysql inserts, etc. On the AGI side I trap the value of the extra param in a switch stmt and then execute the approp block of code based on the value. md This may not be necessary, as AGI receives the calling dialplan's context, extension, and priority via AGI environment (same way as CGI). So if you plan ahead, your script should be able to determine where in the flow it is being called.
