<div>Hi group,</div><div><br></div><div>I would like to create and contribute to the community a module: "mod_cdr_logic" (or whatever name will be proposed).</div><div>Do you think ***from your experience*** that there is a practical need in such module, or better to concentrate on something else :-) ?</div>
<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>In high level:</div><div>Module will export CDRs directly into the database with failover, applying business rules (with regular expressions) to the values exported</div><div><br></div><div>
More detailed:</div><div>After the call is finished, module will export selected chanel variables directly into any provided table (odbc used).</div><div>It will apply business rules to the selected values (based on regular expressions, condition-action dialplan style).<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">                </span></div>
<div>Module will produce one CDR per leg (outgoing/incoming, configurable).</div><div>Also it will support fail over: if the main database is not available, it will try to export into a backup database, and if that will be down as well, it will dump into a local CSV file.</div>
<div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>In the config file one will provide:</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">        </span>1.Mapping rule - variable name to the corresponding table field name</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">        </span>2.Set of business rules to apply</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">        </span></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">        </span></div>
<div>Config file example (will be in regular xml eventually):</div><div>--------------------------------------------------------------------</div><div>#these are the values that are taken directly from channel variables</div>
<div><channel_variables_map></div><div> #channel variable-->mapped to the table field</div><div> calling_number->calling_number</div><div> destination_number->called_number</div><div> dialed_dtmf_digits->dialed_digits </div>
<div><channel_variables_map/></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>#these are the new values that will be determined at the business rules stage</div><div><new_variables></div><div> sales_department_call->sales_department_call</div>
<div> technical_department_call->technical_department_call</div><div> one_more_lost_client->one_more_lost_client</div><div> one_more_happy_client->one_more_happy_client </div><div><new_variables/></div>

<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Would be glad to hear your opinion regarding usefulness or useless of such module in the contrib dir.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thank you,</div><div>Vitalie</div><div><br></div>
