[Freeswitch-users] Called-party state/presence as dialplan condition

[Daniel Hefti]

Now that you mention it, I just started looking into the event socket.  Interesting stuff.  Definitely something I'm going to have to look into.

As an update, it took me a while to figure out how it all comes together, but I did find a way to do it.  I didn't find a way to do what I originally planned wholly in the dialplan, but what I did do was create a javascript function that assigned the results of the 'show channels' api call (using apiExecute) to a variable and checked that to see if there was someone parked at that extension.  From there, I could do whatever I wanted.  Pretty cool.

Thanks for the feedback.

I'm doing that myself with the event socket. I'm using tapi similiar
states: idle, offering/alerting, connected. Those are enough for me.
It was not easy to find which events to use to emulate those states,
since the event flow / contents are different for internal and
external calls.
