Tapi2Ws

Tapi2Ws broadcasts all TAPI (Telephony API) events to all connected WebSockets clients.

Created for integration with Avaya IP Office 5.x but should work with other phone system having TAPI driver.

Note: There is no access control. All events are broadcasted to all active WS clients. Event filtering and processing have to be done on the client's side.

Install and run

Copy Tapi2Ws.exe to the server having installed and configured TAPI driver.
Run Tapi2Ws.exe.

JavaScript integration

WebSocket Server port is 43001 and it is hardcoded.

Connect to Tapi2Ws

// suppose my extension is 201
myExtension = 201;

const connection = new WebSocket(`ws://${AVAYA_HOST}:43001`);

connection.onerror = error => console.log('Error:', error);

connection.onclose = event => console.log('Connetion closed:', event);

connection.onmessage = (event) => {
  const data = JSON.parse(event.data);

  // if data.line equals myExtension then this is event coming for me
  if (data && data.line && data.line === myExtension) {
    processEvent(data);
  }
};

Process event

function processEvent(call) {       
  console.log(call);

  const {
    callId,    // callID, works for Avaya, might not work for other phone systems
    state,     // IDLE, CONNECTED, OFFERING, etc
    callerId,  
    calledId,
    origin,    // INTERNAL, EXTERNAL
    reason,    // ex. UNPARK
  } = call;
}

Dial a number

function dial(number) {
  if (number && myExtension && connection && connection.readyState === 1) {
    connection.send(JSON.stringify({ cmd: 'dial', line: myExtension, number: number }));
  }
}

Drop the line

function drop() {
  if (myExtension && connection && connection.readyState === 1) {
    connection.send(JSON.stringify({ cmd: 'drop', line: myExtension }));
  }
}
