I'm learning asterisk, and decided to make myself an answering machine
out of it. Seems pretty straightforward to use an agi (perl) to do what
I want.
What I want is:
Answer the phone.
check for time of the day
If TOD is during the time I sleep I announce i'm sleeping & prompt
caller to dial1 (or whatever) to connect to my extension & then go to
voicemail if busy/una, otherwise go straight to voicemail.if no digit
was pressed.
If TOD is during normal waking hours or caller ID matches whitelisted
numbers, just connect to my extension & then go to voicemail if busy/una.
I'm nearly done, but I had a thought: before I re-invent the wheel, does
anyone know if this has already been done? My searches only saw basic
answering machines examples.
