             Summary: ARI: Add the ability to intercept hold and raise an event
                 Key: ASTERISK-24922
                 URL: https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-24922
             Project: Asterisk
          Issue Type: New Feature
      Security Level: None
          Components: Resources/res_ari_channels
            Reporter: Matt Jordan


For some applications - such as SLA - a phone pressing hold should not behave in the fashion that the Asterisk core would like it to. Instead, the hold action has some application specific behaviour associated with it - such as disconnecting the channel that initiated the hold; only playing MoH to channels in the bridge if the channels are of a particular type, etc.

One way of accomplishing this is to mimic the {{TALK_DETECT}} function - that is, use a framehook. The framehook can intercept the hold frame, and instead of passing it on to the core, it can raise an event.

The patch attached to this issue accomplished that as a new dialplan function, {{HOLD_INTERCEPT}}.
