Hey all, We are having a simple FreeSWITCH conf call today: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/FS_weekly_2011_07_27 I want to talk about mod_fifo specifically and call queuing in general. If you use mod_fifo at all please join us. There have been a lot of updates to mod_fifo that make it more "ACD-like" but the wiki page needs some serious attention. Please hop on and help us get the page updated. Thanks! -MC

Wait times
by Matthew Margolis 26 Jul '11

26 Jul '11

Is there any way to set a fifo queue to automatically tell callers on hold an approximate time they have left to wait every minute? Something like "Thank you for holding, your current wait time is 'X' minutes." If this feature doesn't exist, it would probably be very useful.

Bug in http://fisheye.freeswitch.org/browse/freeswitch.git/clients/flex/freeswitch.html
by Dmitry Kravchenko 25 Jul '11

In order web telephone works correctly one should replace line 4 <script language="javascript" content-type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> for one referring local jquery-1.4.2.js<http://fisheye.freeswitch.org/browse/freeswitch.git/clients/flex/jquery-1.4…> which is not used otherwise. Page is not working with line above. I.e. it should be <script language="javascript" content-type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.4.2.js <http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js>"></script> Regards, Dmitry.

Mod_commands, originate, and existing sessions
by Kurtis Heimerl 23 Jul '11

23 Jul '11

Hello freeswitch-dev! I've got my chat dialplan working, and set about creating a simple "callback" dialplan. Basically, a chat comes in at a number (e.g., 5000) and the dialplan immediately originates a call between that user and that phone number. This didn't work, as the originate command (in mod_commands) does not allow it to operate when an existing session is active. I've modified it to allow this, and it works great. Callbacks happen, a new session is created, and I see no crashing or major issues. Line ~3400 in mod_command.c //kurtis //if (session || zstr(cmd)) { if (zstr(cmd)) { stream->write_function(stream, "-USAGE %s\n", ORIGINATE_SYNTAX); return SWITCH_STATUS_SUCCESS; } I'd like to have as few distinct blocks of code from vanilla FS as possible, so I was thinking of pushing this change upstream. Would any of the core developers tell me why this particular solution is a bad idea, and why originate disallowed operation in an existing session? If it's benign, I'll submit a patch. If not, I'll try to figure out another way to do this. Thanks!

Execution of channel functions and thread safety
by Peter Olsson 23 Jul '11

23 Jul '11

Hello all developers! I'm in the middle of the development of my own FreeSWITCH module, written in C. Since I've been following the project for quite some time now, it was pretty easy to get things going :) And most of the Core API is straight forward to use - thanks for that all FS developers! I have a minor question of some of the channel functions in FreeSWITCH, and if it's safe to call them from different threads (outside the channel's own thread). For instance; I have a dialplan app registered, and when the call arrives there I do some minor parsing of the call, and after that I park the call (using switch_ivr_park()). Now to my question, I understand that it's probably not safe to call switch_ivr_play_file() from another thread at this time, since the park app itself will then try to handle RTP at the same time as switch_ivr_play_file() (especially if park app sends silence frames) - so instead I queue this to the "playback" app on the channel, similar to how it's done in mod_event_socket. But, what if I call switch_channel_answer(), switch_channel_pre_answer() etc, is that safe to call from another thread, or should I queue these messages to the channel instead - so they are executed within the channel's own thread? My first thought was that these were supposed to be executed by the channel's thread only, but after looking at some of the uuid_-commands in mod_commands I'm not so sure anymore. Since there are quite a few commands messing with the channel's states etc, and that would be executed from another thread indeed (for instance hold/unhold, kill etc). Right now I'm calling switch_channel_answer() from another thread, and it works great, however, I want to be sure I do it right, so this won't cause any problems for me later on in the project. Regards, Peter Olsson PS! See you at ClueCon!
