ASTERISK-AMI-TS

Typescript conversion of asterisk-ami library.

Credit: I'm grateful to the original library asterisk-ami. This library is just near one to one mapping conversion to Typescript of asterisk-ami.

ESM

import { AsteriskAmi } from 'asterisk-ami-ts'
import type { Asterisk } from 'asterisk-ami-ts'

const options: Asterisk.Options = {
	host: 'hostname',
	username: 'username',
	password: 'secret',
}

const ami = new AsteriskAmi(options)
ami.on('ami_data', (data) => console.log('AMI DATA', data))
ami.connect(() => ami.send({ action: 'Ping' }))
ami.send({ action: 'Ping' })

CJS

const { AsteriskAmi } = require('asterisk-ami-ts')

/** @type {import('asterisk-ami-ts').Asterisk.Options} */
const options = {
	host: 'hostname',
	username: 'username',
	password: 'secret',
}

const ami = new AsteriskAmi(options)
ami.on('ami_data', (data) => console.log('AMI DATA', data))
ami.connect(() => ami.send({ action: 'Ping' }))
ami.send({ action: 'Ping' })

Events

NOTE: AMI events are typed.

(AMI Data) These give you AMI specific information

• ami_login Called when logging into the ami, no data passed back
• ami_data Called for each event we get back from the AMI, with an object being returned

(net socket events) Use these events to determine the status of the socket connection, as if the socket is disconnected, you would need to add your .on('close') events again, this was a bug in the previous version of asterisk-ami, use these new events instead which will always be called, even if the connection has died and been reconnected.

• ami_socket_drain
• ami_socket_error
• ami_socket_timeout
• ami_socket_end
• ami_socket_close
• ami_socket_unwritable

export namespace Asterisk {
	export type Event =
		| 'ami_login'
		| 'ami_data'
		| 'ami_socket_drain'
		| 'ami_socket_error'
		| 'ami_socket_timeout'
		| 'ami_socket_end'
		| 'ami_socket_close'
		| 'ami_socket_unwritable'
}
