Queues leavewhenempty based on time

[cjalba]

Is possible to have callers leave the queue based on time/date criteria?
I know there is no leavewhenempty option as “time/date” on queues.conf , but this is precisely
what I am looking for : to force callers leave the queue after business hours, regardless of agents availability

Any suggestion? One approach I think is to have callers leave the call an check time/date on diaplan but does nor seem neat at all.

Thanks in advance.

You can write some bash cronjob to clear queue at time you need

[TheMark]

the simplest way is just before you put the caller in the queue you calculate how many seconds there is to end time and then set the timeout parameter

timeout
Will cause the queue to fail out after a specified number of seconds

same => n,Set(RingTime=3600) ;Max Wait Time, 1h before we continue
same => n,Set(EndTime=10:00) ;HH:MM 24h
same => n,Set(EndSec=${STRPTIME(${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},CET,%C%y%m%d)}${EndTime},CET,%C%y%m%d%H:%M)});
same => n,Set(EndDuration=$[${EndSec} - ${EPOCH}]);
same => n,ExecIf($[${EndDuration} <= 0]?Set(EndDuration=$[${EndDuration}+86499])  ;Add 24h, note this can cause problems when switching between summer/winter time
same => n,ExecIf($[${EndDuration} < ${RingTime}]?Set(RingTime=${EndDuration}))  ;Use the shortest
same => n,Queue(DoctorNoGood,,,,${RingTime})
