Http Response | Aculab

Http Response

Property	Required/Optional	Description
actions	required	An array of Action objects.
token	optional	An optional user-defined string. This defaults to null.
call recording cipher	optional	A cipher object specifying how to encrypt the whole call recording. Defaults to null.

Property	Required/Optional	Description
type	required	The cipher type, currently only "aescbc" (AES algorithm, CBC mode) is supported.

Property	Required/Optional	Description
key	required	The cipher key as a string, either 128, 192 or 256 bits represented as 16, 24 or 32 hexadecimal bytes.
initialisation vector	required	The initialisation vector as a string, 128 bits represented as 16 hexadecimal bytes.

Remarks

The actions sent in the response are executed in the order they are specified.

Some actions can return a result and these have a next page property. When a request is made to a next page the returned action list supercedes the original action list and its remaining actions are discarded.

When there are no actions remaining the call is hung up and the Final page is requested.

Whole call recording for the primary call can optionally be enabled on the service configuration page. If this recording is to be encrypted, supply the cipher in the response to the request on the first page. Whole call recording for a secondary call can be specified in the connect or connect to conference actions. If this is enabled, and is to be encrypted, supply the cipher in the response to the request on the secondary call's first page.

The telephony response. The response body is returned by a call to the Actions class' get_json() function, once all the required actions have been added.

Getting the response body:

from aculab.telephony_rest_api import Actions, Sleep

my_actions = Actions(token='Usage example: Sleep')
my_actions.add(Sleep(seconds=10))

response_body = my_actions.get_json()

Getting the response body. Include a cipher to be used with whole call recording:

from aculab.telephony_rest_api import Actions, Sleep

my_actions = Actions(token='Usage example: Sleep')
my_actions.add(Sleep(seconds=10))

my_cipher=AESCBCCipher(my_key, my_vector)
my_actions.set_cipher(cipher)

response_body = my_actions.get_json()

The Actions class

Introduction

Represents the actions the application wishes to perform.

Class synopsis

class Actions {

    /* methods */
    public __construct()
    public void setToken(string $token)
    public void setCallRecordingCipher(Cipher $cipher)

The Cipher class

Introduction

An abstract class to represent ciphers.

Class synopsis

abstract class Cipher {

    /* methods */
    public __construct(string $type)
}

The AesCbcCipher class

Introduction

A class to represent a cipher using AES in CBC mode.

Class synopsis

class AesCbcCipher extends Cipher{

    /* methods */
    public __construct(string $key, string $initialisation_vector)
}

Examples:

Return a simple action list:

$actions = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Actions();
