V11.5.1 help running a post recording script

Asterisk Asterisk General
#1

Hi Guys,

I am really struggling and would appreciate some help!

We are trying to set the MIXMON_POST or similar variable to run a script that we have received once a call completes. The purpose of the script is to rename and move the recorded call to another folder for additional processing.

The script we are trying to run is

MIXMON_POST = /usr/share/asterisk/agi-bin/moverec.sh ^{MIXMONITOR_FILENAME} “^{AMPUSER}” “^{CALLERID(number)}” “^{CDR(dst)}” ^{CDR(start)}

The question is where and how is the best pace to set this script to run?

I hope this makes sense, looking forward to hearing from you.

Are you thinking MONITOR_EXEC or MONITOR_EXEC_ARGS maybe?

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Application_Monitor

You would set them with the Set command in your dialplan before you call your MixMonitor() or Monitor() Command.

I dont think so, I am trying to run a script, but I guess simply renaming the file would also work. Do you know how \ where to either run a script (similar to the one in my post) or to rename the recording filename based on call values?

#4

You configure the script that the Monitor Application runs by setting the MONITOR_EXEC variable to be it.

For example:

exten => 100,1,NoOP()
 same =>     n,Set(MONITOR_EXEC=/usr/share/asterisk/agi-bin/moverec.sh ^{MIXMONITOR_FILENAME} "^{AMPUSER}" "^{CALLERID(number)}" "^{CDR(dst)}" ^{CDR(start)})
 sane =>     n,Monitor()
 same =>     n,Dial(SIP/100)

MixMonitor() takes an argument for what command to run instead

exten => 100,1,NoOP()
 same =>     n,MixMonitor(${CDR(UNIQUEID)},b,/usr/share/asterisk/agi-bin/moverec.sh ^{MIXMONITOR_FILENAME} "^{AMPUSER}" "^{CALLERID(number)}" "^{CDR(dst)}" ^{CDR(start)})
 same =>     n,Dial(SIP/100)

Both of these examples should record the call and then execute your script after.

Thanks John!!

Last question, which file do I set these in?

Excuse my ignorance, still learning :slight_smile:

By default It’d be in your extensions.conf
