Iterate through a Directory

Asterisk Asterisk Dialplan
1

Is there a way to open a directory and iterate through its files?

2

Is this an Asterisk question?

Yes. I am looking for a dial plan function to read the contents of a directory. I cant seem to find one. The best thing I can come up with is calling ‘ls -1 > FILE’ within SHELL and then reading the file which is super super ugly.

Maybe an AGI would make sense.

Walk through the directory, set a channel variable or two (dozen?) and ‘Bob’s your uncle.;’

5

Yes, this would be better handled by an AGI or ARI script than directly in the dialplan.

6

PHP scandir() function with AGI

Thanks for the advice guys!
