[asterisk-users] how to strip + from the caller-ID

[David Kerr]

Are you actually trying to strip off the + or are you doing it as part of
trying to check the callerid number to see if it is valid.  If the later,
then consider REGEX()... here is a snippet from my privacy manager script...

; First lookup number in asterisk DB for a Caller ID name. exten =
s,n,Set(CALLERID(name)=${IF(${DB_EXISTS(cidname/${CALLERID(num)})}?${DB_RESULT}:${CALLERID(name)})})
; Now check against whitelist. exten =
s,n,GotoIf(${DB_EXISTS(whitelist/${CALLERID(num)})}?onwhitelist) ; Not on
whitelist, check it against blacklist exten =
s,n,GotoIf(${DB_EXISTS(blacklist/${CALLERID(num)})}?onblacklist) ; Not on
blacklist either, check Caller ID number for anonymous conditions... ; If
all zeros (with or without international dialing + sign) then caller is
anonymous. exten = s,n,GotoIf($[${REGEX("^[+]?0+$" ${CALLERID(num)})} =
1]?unknown) ; If Caller ID is not a number at least 4 digits long (with or
without + sign) ; then caller is assumed to be anonymous. Alphabetic Caller
ID "numbers" ; will therefore be considered anonymous. Common numbers for
anonymous callers ; are: "asterisk, unknown, anonymous, private,
unavailable" which may be upper, lower ; or mixed case. The regular
expression catches everything non-numeric. ; If you want to permit a
specific non-numeric Caller ID "number" add it to whitelist. exten =
s,n,GotoIf($[${REGEX("^[+]?[0-9]{4\,}$" ${CALLERID(num)})} != 1]?unknown) ;
Caller ID looks good.
