Overview
The scope of this is to allow the use of FusionPBX's Contacts module to populate phones with Caller ID Name.
Preface
- There's one major drawback of using this - you cannot assign multiple people the same number as it will only return the first result. A workaround is to create separate contacts for the company and users within the company.
- The CIDlookup module provides more functionality than described here. See the FreeSwitch wiki page for more details.
- If you also configure to lookup using a URL and/or citystate Sql, then it is the first service that finds a result that wins. The Sql lookup in Contacts described here is second in the list.
Requirements
- unixODBC for linux users, appropriate ODBC driver for Windows users
- mod_cidlookup
Additional Info
- http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_cidlookup for more details on cidlookup configuration
- http://www.ch-werner.de/sqliteodbc/ for Windows Sqlite ODBC driver
Optional
memcached
unixODBC
For CentOS:
yum install unixodbc unixodbc-dev cd /usr/src/freeswitch ./configure && make mod_cidlookup-install
For Ubuntu
apt-get install unixodbc apt-get install unixodbc-dev
You need to create a DSN that points to your database as well as the required credentials.
Windows ODBC
Install an appropriate ODBC driver for the database you are using. For Sqlite use this http://www.ch-werner.de/sqliteodbc/. You then need to create a DSN using Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Data Sources.
cidlookup.conf.xml
The default configuration file contains 3 main sections. The first is lookup using a URL, second is via a Sql Select, and third is the fallback to city-state Sql lookup. Comment out the sections that you will not be using.
For the example on this page, insert the Sql statement into the first sql section.
Sqlite or PostgreSQL (fusionpbx version 3 or higher)
SELECT v_contacts.contact_name_given || ' ' || v_contacts.contact_name_family ||' ('||v_contact_phones.phone_type||')' AS name, v_contact_phones.phone_number AS number
FROM v_contacts, v_contact_phones
WHERE v_contact_phones.contact_uuid = v_contacts.contact_uuid AND v_contact_phones.phone_number = '${caller_id_number}'
LIMIT 1
Sqlite or PostgreSQL (fusionpbx version 2):
SELECT v_contacts.n_given || ' ' || v_contacts.n_family ||' ('||v_contacts_tel.tel_type||')' AS name, v_contacts_tel.tel_number AS number
FROM v_contacts, v_contacts_tel
WHERE v_contacts_tel.contact_id = v_contacts.contact_id AND v_contacts_tel.tel_number = '${caller_id_number}'
LIMIT 1
MySQL: (fusionpbx version 2)
SELECT CONCAT(v_contacts.n_given, ' ', v_contacts.n_family) AS name, v_contacts_tel.tel_number AS number
FROM v_contacts, v_contacts_tel
WHERE v_contacts_tel.contact_id = v_contacts.contact_id AND v_contacts_tel.tel_number = '${caller_id_number}'
DialPlan Configuration
See the FreeSwtich CIDlookup module page for several choices to add the lookup call to your dialplan
TODO
if CID Name = Fname Lname (fax) send to fax extension.
