Great, thanks Tony and Erik!

I've added a mention of that to https://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_commands#Core_Commands so that anyone else that searches the wiki for json might find it.

Could someone add it to the brief "help" output in fs_cli? (I haven't made the leap to FS development yet.)

Cheers,
Fraser

I'm connecting to FS from PHP over a socket, and parsing results using the php function str_getcsv()

In my dialplan I have:
    <action application="playback" data="tone_stream://%(250,250,600,120)"/>

When I run "api show channels" if a channel is currently playing that tone, then within the returned results I get these 3 headers and values:
<snip>,application,application_data,dialplan,<snip>
<snip>,playback,tone_stream://%(250,250,600,120);loops=3,XML,<snip>

So the data-separator is the comma, but the data also contains commas without being escaped in any way.

Is there any way to change the results to be returned in json? Or change the delimiter?

I've made a regex replace to get around this particular case by matching parentheses... But I can see this happening again with some other value that has a comma outside of parentheses, and would rather get the results in a better format if possible.

(In the wiki, I can see that CDRs and events can be sent in json, and the serialize command for events, but none of those would help this particular case.)

Fraser
