So, I've been working on creating a basic fax system in LUA with FS.  It stores all it's settings and such in a sqlite3 database using the freeswitch.Dbh for the connection.

 

So far I've built a rxfax.lua script that will

- answer inbound calls

- try to detect voice calls (not foolproof)

- apply session variables pulled from a database table

- route the fax to an e-mail address pulled from a database table

- log the fax call and most variables to a database

 

 

Also, I've wrote another script faxctl.lua that you can invoke from the fs console and

- set configuration settings to be used my the rxfax.lua script

- set did 2 email routes

- initialize alias and complete records for easier use

- display some basic stats on faxes.

 

It's all somewhat rough but it is working. 

 

I just started with FS and LUA a couple weeks ago so I am guessing that I have probably done some things wrong or in a very unoptimised way.   Today I got around to putting them into git and write a very short wiki page on it so... I thought I would share what I've done so far and maybe it will help someone and/or the more skilled users here might provide some feedback on things to improve.

 

 

Here's the scripts
