Asterisk Out Of Purpose Recording Extension

My clients sometimes take to order temporary messages on their outcry lines. For representative during the Christmas holidays or if everyone is away for a fellowship retreat.

This is a unproblematic edit to your dialplan, hence it should non hold out besides difficult.


On the incoming dialplan, add together the following

;Check if a greeting is enabled, if hence larn to "playback" inward the electrical flow context
same => n,GotoIf(${DB_EXISTS(greeting/enabled)}?playback)

;If greeting is non enabled, skip to "noplayback"
same => n,goto(noplayback)

;Play the recorded message as well as hence hang up
same => n(playback),Playback(temp-message)
same => n,HangUp()

;If message is non enabled, boot the bucket along amongst the residue of your incoming dialplan
same => n(noplayback),NoOp(Playback is non active)

Now, practise the next context as well as brand certain it is included inward your outgoing context.

[greeting]
;When the user dials 999 get-go the procedure to tape the temporary message
exten => 999,1,NoOp(Start Recording Message)

;Issue a vocalism teaching to the user, brand certain to upload the vocalism files from the extended vocalism pack for asterisk
same => n(record),Playback(after-the-tone&say-temp-msg-prs-pound)
;same => n,Playback(beep)

;Record the message, as well as play it dorsum to the user for approval
same => n,Record(temp-message.gsm)
same => n,Playback(playback&temp-message)

;Ask the user to approve the message yesteryear hanging up, or press cipher to re-record
same => n,Background(if-this-is-not-correct&press-0&otherwise&hangup)
same => n,Wait(10)
same => n,hangup

;If the user presses zero, provide to "record"
exten => 0,1,goto(greeting,999,record)

;When the user dials *999 toggle the message playback as well as prompt the user, brand certain to upload the appropriate promtps
exten => *999,1,NoOp(Toggle Greeting)
same => n,GotoIf(${DB_EXISTS(greeting/enabled)}?DisableGreeting)
same => n,Set(DB(greeting/enabled)=TRUE)
same => n,Playback(vm-tempgreetactive)
same => n,HangUp()
same => n(DisableGreeting),DBdel(greeting/enabled)
same => n,Playback(vm-tempremoved)
