[asterisk-users] Call Identifier Logging

[Steven Wheeler]

Hello,
I am working on upgrading from Asterisk 1.8 to Asterisk 11.6. One of the 
features we are excited for is Call Identifier 
Logging. 
However, it doesn't appear that this new Call ID is accessible from the dial 
plan. Ideally we would like to store this Call ID in the CDR. Does anyone know 
if this is possible?

I could do something like this, but it seems like a terrible hack:
same => n,Set(CALLID=${SHELL(asterisk -rx "core show channel ${CHANNEL}" | grep 
' Call Identifer' | egrep -o 'C-[0-9a-f]+')})

Also as a side note, in the core show channel output ' Identifier' is misspelt 
as ' Identifer'

Hi
I tried this in ael:
_000. => {
Proceeding();
callident = "${SHELL(asterisk -rx "core show channel
${CHANNEL}" | grep "Call Identifer" | cut -d: -f2 | cut -d[ -f2 | cut -d]
-f1 | cut -d\n -f1):0:-1}";
NoOp(${callident}});
Dial(Motif/google/+${EXTEN:3}@voice.google.com,,r);
hangup;
}

And worked perfectly.

It would be interesting, the developer team add a variable to channel with
this data.

Making LinkedID available in the dialplan would also be useful.

[daffy-01 ~]# asterisk -rx "core show function CHANNEL" | grep -i link
[daffy-01 ~]#


According to funcs/func_channel.c
468 else if (!strcasecmp(data, "linkedid")) {
469 ast_channel_lock(chan);
470 if (ast_strlen_zero(ast_channel_linkedid(chan))) {
471 /* fall back on the channel's uniqueid if 
linkedid is unset */
472 ast_copy_string(buf, 
ast_channel_uniqueid(chan), len);
473 }
474 else {
475 ast_copy_string(buf, 
ast_channel_linkedid(chan), len);
476 }
477 ast_channel_unlock(chan);

While useful, that doesn't solve the problem of being able to store the 
channel's logging identifier in CDR.

Where is this documented?

It does not appear to be documented. However, there is a reference in the 
Asterisk: The Definitive 
Guide.

This isn't a suitable long term solution as it requires launching several 
external processes just to gain access to an internal variable. It is also 
likely to create bugs in the future if someone changes the output of that 
command. For instance if they fix the typo in "Call Identifer".

Not really interested in this topic, but invoking 6 processes seems a bit 
excessive :)


How about something like:

asterisk -rx "core show channel SIP/spa841-0003"\
| awk '/Call Identifer/ {gsub(/[][]/,""); print $3}'

Of course, a dialplan function would be best.

This is one of those features that is embarrassingly simple and yet,
unfortunately, was overlooked.

Ideally, it'd be in the CHANNEL function.

If anyone is curious, the accessor function you want is
ast_channel_callid. It returns the callid ref bumped, so you do have
to make sure you decrement the ref count using ast_callid_unref. You
can print the callid to the CHANNEL function's buffer using
ast_callid_strnprint.

Really, a dialplan function would be best. I too don't like of an idea of
using a external process to get internal variables, but when necessary...
