i still think you are better consume events with python... 
its easy and straightforward


#!/usr/bin/env python

import string
import sys

from ESL import *

con = ESLconnection("127.0.0.1","8021","ClueCon")
#are we connected?
callDirection = "unknown"


if con.connected:
  print "we connected \n"
  con.events("plain", "all");

  while 1:
  #my $e = $con->recvEventTimed(100);
    e = con.recvEvent()

    if e:
      #print e.serialize()
      en = e.getHeader("Event-Name")
      print "Name =>" ,en

      if en == "CHANNEL_OUTGOING":
        callDirection = "OUT"
        print "Direction =", callDirection

      elif en == "CHANNEL_ORIGINATE":
        print "Originate call - direction =", callDirection

      elif en == "CHANNEL_CALLSTATE":
        print "Call State =>", e.getHeader("Answer-State")

      elif en == "CHANNEL_ANSWER":
        print "Call START - direction =", callDirection

      elif en == "CHANNEL_HANGUP":
        print "Call END - direction =", callDirection

      elif en == "CHANNEL_PARK":
        callDirection = "IN"
        print "Call PARK - direction =", callDirection



you can work it out from here pretty everything you want.

hi,

i converted the bash script to python as below:

ret = subprocess.Popen('sudo fs_cli -x \"show channels\" | grep -c \"'+UUID+'\"', shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
sout, serr = ret.communicate()
print sout

the reason i use -c instead of -q is because fs_cli always returns a 0 exit code so it doesnt work through python when combined with grep so i tried to exit loop when the counter is 0 meaning the call is completed, but the above returns some weird numbers in sout, when the call is running it shows 5 and when done shows 3 but same if i run directly through console it shows accurately.

any idea how to fix this?

Bipin

If you are using fs_cli then a simple shell script can monitor the call and return when the call completes:

#!/bin/bash

RESULT=$( fs_cli -x "originate leg1 leg2" )

if [[ $RESULT =~ "OK" ]]; then
        UUID=$( echo "$RESULT" | cut -f 2 -d ' ' )
        while fs_cli -x "show channels" | grep -q $UUID ;
        do
                sleep 5;
        done
        echo "Call completed."
fi

originate returns when we get call progress, or in the case of ignore_early_media, on answer or failure.

hi,

i was wondering if its possible to to release handle from an originate command only once the call is completed, i mean i send a originate command from shell using fs_cli but only return back to prompt once the call is completed rather than as soon as a bridge is created or a UUID generated
