Hello Everybody!

1. Scenario.

I am writing an IVR in Python that gets a destination from the calling party (party A) and then connects to the destination (party B).

When the call is CONNECTED, I want to:

- Receive DTMFs

- Have a timer that can call a certain function in my script. The script will have to play a message to party A.

- Have a timer that can call a certain function in my script. The script will have to drop the call.

Please notice that I want to do the things after the two parties are connected, and not after I send the Invite to party B.

2. Problem.

I will be happy to receive help on:

- Which methods should I look for to implement this.

3. Details

Here is how I connect the call currently:

session.execute("bridge",”sofia/internal/" + destination_number + "@domain.com”)

I have tried to create a timer callback function “my_method()” using:

ivr_timer =threading.Timer(30,my_method)

This never called the function “my_method()”.

Maybe I am wrong in using threading.Timer and the “bridge” application? Maybe I need to create a new thread and a new timer using the API of freeswitch, plus to use the “session.setInputCallback”, plus use a conference rather than a bridge? Can you please provide any suggestions or examples?

Thank you!
