Asterisk dial command return dialed number - variables

I'm looking for a variable that can tell me which number 'won' the call on a multi-target Dial command.
Example:
Dial(SIP/1000&SIP/1001&SIP/1002,30)
Set(the_unlucky_winner=${...})
I'm not getting anything from the ${DIALEDPEERx} variables. Sounds like these vars are broken but I don't know if this is what I should be using.
Ancient version 1.2.14 deployed at this site. All clients are SIP
Thanks anyone

Only realistic way do that - cal via Local channle like freepbx do(check freepbx.org source) or use Macro on answer(i am afraid not work in 1.2)

Parse the contents of the CDR record for the file. One of the fields is dstchannel which will hold a value like SIP/1002-9786b0b0.
Also keep in mind that the call variable stack is wiped on hangup, unless you have an "h" (hangup) extension defined for the context. So, you can most easily handle your post-call processing there.

Hi all I have a solution to this problem. It is working fine for both normal dial and multi target dial.
In dialstring add a macro, here I am adding "followme" macro.
M(followme)
$agi->exec("dial", "SIP/6001#sip.example.com&SIP/6002#sip.example.com,rtTgM(followme)");
Then after call is answered it ll go to context
[macro-followme]
In this context you write one script to get the connected calls information by
$dstchannel=$agi->get_variable("DIALEDPEERNUMBER");

The way I managed to do it is as follows
Dial(SIP/1000&SIP/1001&SIP/1002,30,M(whoanswered))
[macro-whoanswered]
exten => s,1,NoOp(${CHANNEL})
You will see that the actual extension that answered is containes in ${CHANNEL}
If 1001 answered the channel will be something like SIP/1001-00017cf1
Just use the CUT command to cut it by / and -

The value of the variable on the right hand side of an assignment has been updated after the left hand side variable's value changed afterwards [duplicate]

Does Karate supports a feature where you can define a variable in a scenario and reuse it in other scenarios in the same feature file. I tried doing the same but get an error. What's the best way to reuse the variables within the same feature file ?
Scenario: Get the request Id
* url baseUrl
Given path 'eam'
When method get
Then status 200
And def reqId = response.teams[0]resourceRequestId
Scenario: Use the above generated Id
* url baseUrl
* print 'From the previous Scenario: ' + reqId
Error:
Caused by: javax.script.ScriptException: ReferenceError: "reqId" is not defined in <eval> at line number 1
Use a Background: section. Here is an example.
EDIT: the variable if in the Background: will be re-initialized for every scenario which is standard testing framework "set up" behavior. You can use hooks such as callonce - if you want the initialization to happen only once.
If you are trying to modify a variable in one scenario and expect it to be now having that modified value when the next Scenario starts, you have misunderstood the concept of a Scenario. Just combine your steps into one Scenario, because think about it: that is the "flow" you are trying to test.
Each Scenario should be able to run stand-alone. In the future the execution order of Scenario-s could even be random or run in parallel.
Another way to explain this is - if you comment out one Scenario other ones should continue to work.
Please don't think of the Scenario as a way to "document" the important parts of your test. You can always use comments (e.g. # foo bar). Some teams assume that each HTTP "end point" should live in a separate Scenario - but this is absolutely not recommended. Look at the Hello World example itself, it deliberately shows 2 calls, a POST and a GET !
You can easily re-use code using call so you should not be worrying about whether code-duplication will be an issue.
Also - it is fine to have some code duplication, if it makes the flow easier to read. See this answer for details - and also read this article by Google.

Enable Impala Impersonation on Superset

Is there a way to make the logged user (on superset) to make the queries on impala?
I tried to enable the "Impersonate the logged on user" option on Databases but with no success because all the queries run on impala with superset user.
I'm trying to achieve the same! This will not completely answer this question since it does not still work but I want to share my research in order to maybe help another soul that is trying to use this instrument outside very basic use cases.
I went deep in the code and I found out that impersonation is not implemented for Impala. So you cannot achieve this from the UI. I found out this PR https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/4699 that for whatever reason was never merged into the codebase and tried to copy&paste code in my Superset version (1.1.0) but it didn't work. Adding some logs I can see that the configuration with the impersonation is updated, but then the actual Impala query is with the user I used to start the process.
As you can imagine, I am a complete noob at this. However I found out that the impersonation thing happens when you create a cursor and there is a constructor parameter in which you can pass the impersonation configuration.
I managed to correctly (at least to my understanding) implement impersonation for the SQL lab part.
In the sql_lab.py class you have to add in the execute_sql_statements method the following lines
with closing(engine.raw_connection()) as conn:
# closing the connection closes the cursor as well
cursor = conn.cursor(**database.cursor_kwargs)
where cursor_kwargs is defined in db_engine_specs/impala.py as the following
#classmethod
def get_configuration_for_impersonation(cls, uri, impersonate_user, username):
logger.info(
'Passing Impala execution_options.cursor_configuration for impersonation')
return {'execution_options': {
'cursor_configuration': {'impala.doas.user': username}}}
#classmethod
def get_cursor_configuration_for_impersonation(cls, uri, impersonate_user,
username):
logger.debug('Passing Impala cursor configuration for impersonation')
return {'configuration': {'impala.doas.user': username}}
Finally, in models/core.py you have to add the following bit in the get_sqla_engine def
params = extra.get("engine_params", {}) # that was already there just for you to find out the line
self.cursor_kwargs = self.db_engine_spec.get_cursor_configuration_for_impersonation(
str(url), self.impersonate_user, effective_username) # this is the line I added
...
params.update(self.get_encrypted_extra()) # already there
#new stuff
configuration = {}
configuration.update(
self.db_engine_spec.get_configuration_for_impersonation(
str(url),
self.impersonate_user,
effective_username))
if configuration:
params.update(configuration)
As you can see I just shamelessy pasted the code from the PR. However this kind of works only for the SQL lab as I already said. For the dashboards there is an entirely different way of querying Impala that I did not still find out.
This means that queries for the dashboards are handled in a different way and there isn't something like this
with closing(engine.raw_connection()) as conn:
# closing the connection closes the cursor as well
cursor = conn.cursor(**database.cursor_kwargs)
My gut (and debugging) feeling is that you need to first understand the sqlalchemy part and extend a new ImpalaEngine class that uses a custom cursor with the impersonation conf. Or something like that, however it is not simple (if we want to call this simple) as the sql_lab part. So, the trick is to find out where the query is executed and create a cursor with the impersonation configuration. Easy, isnt'it ?
I hope that this could shed some light to you and the others that have this issue. Let me know if you did find out another way to solve this issue, or if this comment was useful.
Update: something really useful
A colleague of mine succesfully implemented impersonation with impala without touching any superset related, but instead working directly with the impyla lib. A PR was open with the code to change. You can apply the patch directly in the impyla src used by superset. You have to edit both dbapi.py and hiveserver2.py.
As a reminder: we are still testing this and we do not know if it works with different accounts using the same superset instance.

Set variables in Javascript job entry at root level

I need to set variables in root scope in one job to be used in a different job. The first job has a Javascript job entry, with the statements:
parent_job.setVariable("customers_full_path", "C:\\customers22.csv", "r");
true;
But the compilation fails with:
Couldn't compile javascript:
org.mozilla.javascript.EvaluatorException: Can't find method
org.pentaho.di.job.Job.setVariable(string,string,string). (#2)
How to set a variable at root level in a Javascript job entry?
Sorry for the passive agressive but:
I don't know if you are new to Pentaho but, the most common mistake for new users, with previous knowledge of programming, is to be sort of 'addicted' to know methods, as such you are using JavaScript for a functionality that is built in the tool. Both Transformations(KTR) and JOBs(KJB) have a similar step, you can better manipulate this in a KTR.
JavaScript steps slow down the flow considerably, so try to stay away from those as much as possible.
EDIT:
Reading This article, seems the only thing you're doing wrong is the actual syntax of the command..
Correct usage :
parent_job.setVariable("Desired Value", [name_of_variable]);
The command you described has 3 parameters, when it should be 2. If you have more than 1 variable you need to set, use 3 times the command. Try it out see if it works.

Execute SQL Server Pass-Through Query From Access VBA

I have an UPDATE pass through query saved in Access 2007. When I double-click on the pass through query it runs successfully. How can I get this query to run from VBA? I'd like it to run when my "splash screen" loads.
I'm currently using the following code:
CurrentDb.Execute "Q_UPDATE_PASSTHROUGH", dbSQLPassThrough
But I get the following message:
The pass-through query contains all the connection information and I've confirmed the SQL syntax is correct by running it multiple times, so not sure what I'm missing in my VBA call.
Use the QueryDef's Execute method:
CurrentDb.QueryDefs("Q_UPDATE_PASSTHROUGH").Execute
I don't think you should need to explicitly include the dbSQLPassThrough option here, but you can try like this if you want it:
CurrentDb.QueryDefs("Q_UPDATE_PASSTHROUGH").Execute dbSQLPassThrough
I recently ran into the same problem. While the above mentioned Execute method is working for most cases, some people (me included) experiencing a Run-time error '3001': Invalid Argument when using the parameter dbSQLPassThrough. This was also addressed in the answer above me and happens even in the simplest SQL-statements.
For those who are having the same problem, I recommend using the OpenQuery method as alternative.
A valid substitution for the following code
CurrentDb.QueryDefs("Q_UPDATE_PASSTHROUGH").Execute
would be
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Q_UPDATE_PASSTHROUGH"
I know this thread is 4 years old, however, searching for a solution for the not working Execute method on Google brings you directly to this thread which is why I thought it would be useful to add an alternative solution which solved this problem for me.
I confirm that the QueryDef's Execute method is the recommended way to achieve your goal.
CurrentDb.QueryDefs("Q_UPDATE_PASSTHROUGH").Execute
However, I can point out that in a similar case with Access 2010, using dbSQLPassThrough for the Options parameter caused a Run-time error '3001': Invalid Argument.

Asterisk with new functions

I created a write func odbc list records files in sql table:
[R]
dsn=connector
write=INSERT INTO ast_records (filename,caller,callee,dtime) VALUES
('${ARG1}','${ARG2}','${ARG3}','${ARG4}')
prefix=M
and set it in dialplan :
exten => _0X.,n,Set(
M_R(${MIXMONITOR_FILENAME}\,${CUSER}\,${EXTEN}\,${DTIME})= )
when I excute it I get an error : ast_func_write: M_R Function not registered:
note that : asterisk with windows
First thing I saw was you were performing the call to the function incorrectly...you need to be assigning values, not arguments....try this:
func_odbc.conf:
[R]
dsn=connector
prefix=M
writesql=INSERT INTO ast_records (filename,caller,callee,dtime) VALUES('${VAL1}','${VAL2}','${VAL3}','${VAL4}');
dialplan:
exten => _0X.,1,Set(M_R()=${MIXMONITOR_FILENAME}\,${CUSER}\,${EXTEN}\,${DTIME})
If that doesn't help you, continue on in my list :)
Make sure func_odbc.so is being loaded by Asterisk. (from the asterisk CLI: module show like func_odbc)... If it's not loaded, it can't "build" your custom odbc query function.
Make sure your DSN is configured in /etc/odbc.ini
Make sure that /etc/asterisk/res_odbc.conf is properly configured
Make sure you're calling the DSN by the right name (I see it happen all the time)
enable verbose and debug in your Asterisk logging, do a logger reload, core set verbose 5, core set debug 5, and then try the call again. when the call finishes, review the log, you'll see much more output regarding what happened...
Regarding the answer from recluze...Not to call you out here, but using a PHP AGI is serious overkill here. The func_odbc function works just fine, why create more overhead and potential security issues by calling an external script (which has to use a interpreter program on TOP itself)?
you should call func odbc function as "ODBC_connector". connector should be use in the func_odbc.conf file [connector]. In the dialplan it should call like this.
exten=> _0x.,n,ODBC_connector(${arg1},${arg2})
I don't really understand the syntax you're trying to use but how about using AGI (with php) for this. Just define your logic in a php script and call it from your dialplan as:
exten => _0X.,n,AGI(script-filename.php,${CUSER},${EXTEN},${DTIME})
