Setting a global variable to be used in my plan.. Issue

myhobby · March 10, 2018, 4:12pm

*0 = off
*1 = on
*2 = current status

use global variable IVRONOFF to store this value during the day (so not per call)

exten => *1,1,Set(IVRONOFF=1)
exten => *1,n,Playback(custom/het_telefoonmenu_staat_nu_aan)
exten => *1,n,NoOp(${IVRONOFF})
exten => *1,n,Hangup()
exten => *0,1,Set(IVRONOFF=0)
exten => *0,n,Playback(custom/het_telefoonmenu_staat_nu_uit_en_gaat_automatisch_aan)
exten => *0,n,NoOp(${IVRONOFF})
exten => *0,n,Hangup()
exten => *2,1,NoOp(${IVRONOFF})
exten => *2,n,GotoIf($[${IVRONOFF}=0] ?:lbl_vdp-outbound_0)
exten => *2,n,Playback(custom/het_telefoonmenu_staat_aan)
exten => *2,n,Hangup()
exten => *2,n(lbl_vdp-outbound_0),Playback(custom/het_telefoonmenu_staat_uit_en_gaat_automatisch_aan)
exten => *2,n,Hangup()

When starting the gotoif (via *2), it seems that the IVRONOFF variable is back to 1 although I expected this to remain 0 (due to the previous action)

-- Executing [*2@from-internal:1] NoOp("SIP/702-00000143", "1") in new stack

Where do I go wrong in this issue ? ?

You have set a local variable, not a global one. You need the GLOBAL “function” to set global variables.

I will change it back to a GLOBAL variable, which I had before, but this was at that time also not succesfull. Keep you updated.

The Global situation seems to be resolved

-- Executing [*0@from-internal:1] NoOp("SIP/702-00000192", "1") in new stack
-- Executing [*0@from-internal:2] Set("SIP/702-00000192", "GLOBAL(IVRONOFF)=0") in new stack

== Setting global variable ‘IVRONOFF’ to ‘0’

via

exten => *0,1,NoOp(${IVRONOFF})
exten => *0,n,Set(GLOBAL(IVRONOFF)=0)
exten => *0,n,NoOp(${IVRONOFF})
exten => *0,n,Playback(custom/het_telefoonmenu_staat_nu_uit_en_gaat_automatisch_aan)
exten => *0,n,NoOp(${IVRONOFF})
exten => *0,n,Hangup()

But stil have an issue using this variable in a gotoif statement… Tried various syntax but no succes

exten => *2,n,GotoIf([${IVRONOFF}=0] ?:lbl_vdp-outbound_0)

exten => *2,1,NoOp(${IVRONOFF})
exten => *2,n,GotoIf($[${IVRONOFF}=0] ?:lbl_vdp-outbound_0)
exten => *2,n,Playback(custom/het_telefoonmenu_staat_aan)
exten => *2,n,Hangup()
exten => *2,n(lbl_vdp-outbound_0),Playback(custom/het_telefoonmenu_staat_uit_en_gaat_automatisch_aan)
exten => *2,n,Hangup()

exten => *2,n,GotoIf([${IVRONOFF}=0] ?:lbl_vdp-outbound_0)

Results in:
– Executing [*2@from-internal:1] NoOp(“SIP/702-00000191”, “1”) in new stack
– Executing [*2@from-internal:2] GotoIf(“SIP/702-00000191”, “[1=0] ?:lbl_vdp-outbound_0”) in new stack
– Executing [*2@from-internal:3] Playback(“SIP/702-00000191”, “custom/het_telefoonmenu_staat_aan”) in new stack
– <SIP/702-00000191> Playing ‘custom/het_telefoonmenu_staat_aan.slin’ (language ‘nl’)
– Executing [*2@from-internal:4] Hangup(“SIP/702-00000191”, “”) in new stack

Or

-- Executing [*2@from-internal:1] NoOp("SIP/702-00000193", "0") in new stack
-- Executing [*2@from-internal:2] GotoIf("SIP/702-00000193", "[0=0] ?:lbl_vdp-outbound_0") in new stack
-- Executing [*2@from-internal:3] Playback("SIP/702-00000193", "custom/het_telefoonmenu_staat_aan") in new stack
-- <SIP/702-00000193> Playing 'custom/het_telefoonmenu_staat_aan.slin' (language 'nl')
-- Executing [*2@from-internal:4] Hangup("SIP/702-00000193", "") in new stack

I expect the Goto if to swith on the value to Step 2,5 or to continue to step 3. But the logic in the GotoIf does not work…YET

Your logs indicate you are using the version with no $ before [.

myhobby · March 12, 2018, 5:04pm

After many many attempts I got result…

exten => *2,n,GotoIf($["${IVRONOFF}" = “1”]?:lbl_vdp-outbound_0)

I’m using Freepbx with the latest Asterisk version available. How can a newbie know this by not reading 20 years of asterisk history ? Thanks for the provide help. It helps to keep people motivated to dive deeper in this stuff.
