[Freeswitch-users] Callback in Javascript, session.destroy() does not free the channel!

FYI,

I did a POC on this:

<extension name="crazy_callback">
  <condition field="destination_number" expression="^(\d{10})$">
    <action application="set" data="luarun dump_arg.lua ${caller_id_number}
${caller_id_name}"/>
  </condition>
</extension>

dump_arg.lua:

-- 
dump_args.lua

-- print out the
args



freeswitch.consoleLog("info", "Arg1: " .. argv[1] ..
\n")

freeswitch.consoleLog("info", "Arg2: " .. argv[2] ..
"\n")



>From there you can do whatever you want in the target script. I'm sure
perlrun, pyrun, and jsrun are all the same in terms of accepting args and
running whatever you want, like generating an originate API, etc. Just
remember that the caller needs to hangup before you can call him back. :)
