module Twilio # Twilio Verbs enable your application to respond to Twilio requests (to your app) with XML responses. # There are 5 primary verbs (say, play, gather, record, dial) and 3 secondary (hangup, pause, redirect). # Verbs can be chained and, in some cases, nested. # # If your response consists of a single verb, you can call a Verb class method: # # Twilio::Verb.say 'The time is 9:35 PM.' # # But if you need to chain several verbs together, just wrap them in an instance block and call the 'response' attribute: # # verb = Twilio::Verb.new { # dial '415-123-4567' # redirect 'http://www.foo.com/nextInstructions' # } # verb.response class Verb attr_reader :response class << self def method_missing(method_id, *args) #:nodoc: v = Verb.new v.send(method_id, *args) end end def initialize(&block) @xml = Builder::XmlMarkup.new @xml.instruct! if block_given? @chain = true @response = @xml.Response { instance_eval(&block) } end end # The Say verb converts text to speech that is read back to the caller. # Say is useful for dynamic text that is difficult to prerecord. # # Examples: # Twilio::Verb.say 'The time is 9:35 PM.' # Twilio::Verb.say 'The time is 9:35 PM.', :loop => 3 # # With numbers, 12345 will be spoken as "twelve thousand three hundred forty five" while # 1 2 3 4 5 will be spoken as "one two three four five." # # Twilio::Verb.say 'Your PIN is 1234', :loop => 4 # Twilio::Verb.say 'Your PIN is 1 2 3 4', :loop => 4 # # If you need a longer pause between each loop, instead of explicitly calling the Pause # verb within a block, you can set the convenient pause option: # # Twilio::Verb.say 'Your PIN is 1 2 3 4', :loop => 4, :pause => true # # Options (see http://www.twilio.com/docs/api_reference/TwiML/say) are passed in as a hash: # # Twilio::Verb.say 'The time is 9:35 PM.', :voice => 'woman' # Twilio::Verb.say 'The time is 9:35 PM.', :voice => 'woman', :language => 'es' def say(*args) options = {:voice => 'man', :language => 'en', :loop => 1} args.each do |arg| case arg when String options[:text_to_speak] = arg when Hash options.merge!(arg) else raise ArgumentError, 'say expects String or Hash argument' end end output { if options[:pause] loop_with_pause(options[:loop], @xml) do @xml.Say(options[:text_to_speak], :voice => options[:voice], :language => options[:language]) end else @xml.Say(options[:text_to_speak], :voice => options[:voice], :language => options[:language], :loop => options[:loop]) end } end # The Play verb plays an audio URL back to the caller. # Examples: # Twilio::Verb.play 'http://foo.com/cowbell.mp3' # Twilio::Verb.play 'http://foo.com/cowbell.mp3', :loop => 3 # # If you need a longer pause between each loop, instead of explicitly calling the Pause # verb within a block, you can set the convenient pause option: # # Twilio::Verb.play 'http://foo.com/cowbell.mp3', :loop => 3, :pause => true # # Options (see http://www.twilio.com/docs/api_reference/TwiML/play) are passed in as a hash, # but only 'loop' is currently supported. def play(*args) options = {:loop => 1} args.each do |arg| case arg when String options[:audio_url] = arg when Hash options.merge!(arg) else raise ArgumentError, 'play expects String or Hash argument' end end output { if options[:pause] loop_with_pause(options[:loop], @xml) do @xml.Play(options[:audio_url]) end else @xml.Play(options[:audio_url], :loop => options[:loop]) end } end # The Gather verb collects digits entered by a caller into their telephone keypad. # When the caller is done entering data, Twilio submits that data to a provided URL, # as either a HTTP GET or POST request, just like a web browser submits data from an HTML form. # # Options (see http://www.twilio.com/docs/api_reference/TwiML/gather) are passed in as a hash # # Examples: # Twilio::Verb.gather # Twilio::Verb.gather :action => 'http://foobar.com' # Twilio::Verb.gather :finishOnKey => '*' # Twilio::Verb.gather :action => 'http://foobar.com', :finishOnKey => '*' # # Gather also lets you nest the Play, Say, and Pause verbs: # # verb = Twilio::Verb.new { # gather(:action => '/process_gather', :method => 'GET) { # say 'Please enter your account number followed by the pound sign' # } # say "We didn't receive any input.

If the called party picks up, # the two parties are connected and can communicate until one hangs up. If the called party does # not pick up, if a busy signal is received, or the number doesn't exist, the dial verb will finish. # # If an action verb is provided, Twilio will submit the outcome of the call attempt to the action URL. # If no action is provided, Dial will fall through to the next verb in the document. # # Note: this is different than the behavior of Record and Gather.
