[asterisk-users] Create new channel from dialplan

[Igor Dvorzhak]

Hi John,

Detailed use case:
I have a "contact" call connected to which played the IVR. On "transfer"
digit key press I need to transfer it to the predefined "transfer" number.
I don't want use the Dial command to do transfer because it will
automatically connect "contact" channel with "transfer" channel. Instead I
want to put "transfer" channel and "contact" channel in the MeetMe
conference.

So I need to use Originate command to originate transfer call in the
separate channel. After this command I will put current "contact" channel
in MeetMe conference. When "transfer" connects it will be put to the same
MeetMe conference as "contact".

Now I'm using the System command to originate call through external
executable in dialplan, but it looks ugly, so I'm trying to find a better
way to do this.

What I'm using now:
exten => meetme,1,System(/usr/bin/php
/etc/asterisk/script/originate_call.php "Channel:
Local/+${TRANSFER_NUMBER}@cf3-transfer-dial\,MaxRetries: 0\,RetryTime:
600000\,WaitTime: 640\,CallerID: \<${TO}\>\,Context:
cf3-transfer-leg\,Extension: s\,Priority: 1\,Set:
ACTIVE_ID=${ACTIVE_ID}\,Set: TERMINATION_IP=${TERMINATION_IP}\,Set:
DIAL_TIME=${DIAL_TIME}\,Set:
TRANSFER_TEST_NUMBER=${TRANSFER_TEST_NUMBER}\,")
