hi everybody,
wouldn't it be great to have a tapi provider that
works with asterisk?
all we would need is a custum tapi service provider
that uses asterisk's manager functions to play a call between a configured
extension (e.g. your iax/sip/zap phone and a number that you provide using
e.g. microsoft outlook).
I found the folling in the net that could give some
help:
http://www.julmar.com/ here you can
find a gpl licensed lib to create a tsp.
again: here is a draw of how it could be
done.
- in your properties you have your default
extension configured.
- then you select a contact in MS outlook and want
to place a call using tapi and the asterisk tapi service provider.
- the tsp then uses asterisk manager function to
place a call between your extension and the person you want to
call.
(e.g. Channel: Capi/@12345:0815 to Exten: 4711)
or we can somehow drop a .call-file in asterisk
outgoing directory if this is easier / more secure.
who would be interested in helping develloping such
a project. My programming skills are not that good but I will try to do my
best.
bye
