Glad to hear. I still say to build the app and logic completely separately and connect it to FreeSWITCH over the socket using ESL. -- Kristian Kielhofner http://blog.krisk.org ----- Original Message ----- From: freeswitch-users-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org <freeswitch-users-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org> To: freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org <freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org> Sent: Wed May 12 18:28:13 2010 Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] Questions on Building an application forFreeSWITCHThis is legit. We are not into harassing anyone. There are too many people doing that already. We currently have this working on a Windows/Dialogic platform, but would like to get it over to FreeSWITCH for a number of reasons. It is always nice to avoid spending alot of time developing using a method that you later find has serious issues or limitations and then having to change horses and start over. I just thought I would tap on someone else's wisdom in regards to a good way to talk to FS that works well. I did notice that the wiki talks like LUA is the preferred way to go.

Seriously, the world does not need another robodialer to harass people...
Agreed, however there are legitimate use cases for this, like a retailer calling to say an order is in, or reminder calls sent out by a doctor's office. But yes, if it's dialing for dollars then I'm with you: Por favor! No mas! -MC
With that being said, write your app in whatever you want using ESL and connect to the socket to originate calls and listen for events.

I am looking to build an "application" with FS where it will frequently check a database and then make an outbound call when a record with certain conditions is found in the DB. It needs to determine if the call was then answered by a machine/vm, busy, or answered by a person, play a message and get a response back to be recorded in the db. It may find many calls that need to be made at the same time. It will be running on a PRI.
I am confused as to what approach to use to accomplish this.
Lua Script, Perl Script, Javascript, Phython, PHP, Ruby....etc. Liverpie, ESL....etc. Or a totally different approach.
I realize that there is not only one "correct" way to build this, but I am looking for advise from those who have done this type of thing before. I value the opinion of those who have gone down this road and would be willing to share their thoughts on a recommended path to take to accomplish this.
Thanks
