| 7 | +A TypeScript implementation of the Asterisk Manager Interface (AMI) client for Node.js, inspired by nami. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +## Description |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +TSAMI is a robust, fully typed client library for interacting with the Asterisk PBX through the Asterisk Manager Interface protocol. It provides an elegant event-driven API for performing AMI operations, handling events, and managing connections in modern TypeScript applications. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +## Features |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +- **Fully typed**: Complete TypeScript definitions for all AMI interactions |
| 16 | +- **Event-driven architecture**: Based on Node.js EventEmitter |
| 17 | +- **Promise support**: Modern async/await API |
| 18 | +- **Connection management**: Handles automatic reconnection and error recovery |
| 19 | +- **Built-in actions**: Includes common AMI actions like Login, Logoff, Ping, etc. |
| 20 | +- **Custom actions support**: Create custom AMI actions with ease |
| 21 | +- **Comprehensive event handling**: Process AMI events with typed handlers |
| 22 | +- **Robust error handling**: Detailed error reporting and logging |
| 23 | +- **Production-ready**: Buffer overflow protection and proper resource cleanup |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +## Installation |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +```bash |
| 28 | +# Using npm |
| 29 | +npm install tsami |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +# Using yarn |
| 32 | +yarn add tsami |
| 33 | +``` |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +## Usage |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +### Basic Connection |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +```typescript |
| 40 | +import { AMI, AmiEvents, AmiSocketEvents } from "tsami"; |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +(async function main() { |
| 43 | + // Create AMI client |
| 44 | + const ami = new AMI({ |
| 45 | + host: "localhost", |
| 46 | + port: 5038, |
| 47 | + username: "admin", |
| 48 | + password: "secret", |
| 49 | + logLevel: 2, // 0: none, 1: error, 2: warn, 3: info, 4: debug |
| 50 | + }); |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | + // Set up event handlers |
| 53 | + ami.on(AmiSocketEvents.Connected, () => { |
| 54 | + console.log("Socket connected"); |
| 55 | + }); |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | + ami.on(AmiSocketEvents.Error, (error) => { |
| 58 | + console.error("Socket error:", error); |
| 59 | + }); |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | + ami.on(AmiEvents.Connected, () => { |
| 62 | + console.log("Successfully authenticated with Asterisk"); |
| 63 | + }); |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | + ami.on(AmiEvents.Event, (event) => { |
| 66 | + console.log("Received event:", event.name); |
| 67 | + }); |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | + // Connect to Asterisk server |
| 70 | + ami.open(); |
| 71 | +})(); |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +// Close connection when done |
| 74 | +async function shutdown() { |
| 75 | + await ami.close(); |
| 76 | + console.log("Connection closed"); |
| 77 | +} |
| 78 | +``` |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | +### Using Built-in Actions |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +```typescript |
| 83 | +import { AMI, AmiEvents, actions } from "tsami"; |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +(async function main() { |
| 86 | + const ami = new AMI({ |
| 87 | + host: "localhost", |
| 88 | + port: 5038, |
| 89 | + username: "admin", |
| 90 | + password: "secret", |
| 91 | + }); |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | + try { |
| 94 | + ami.open(); |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | + // Wait for successful login |
| 97 | + await new Promise((resolve) => ami.once(AmiEvents.Connected, resolve)); |
| 98 | + |
| 99 | + // Get channel information |
| 100 | + const response = await ami.asyncSend(new actions.CoreShowChannels()); |
| 101 | + console.log("Active channels:", response.events.length - 1); |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | + // Loop through channels |
| 104 | + response.events.slice(0, response.events.length - 1).forEach((event) => { |
| 105 | + console.log( |
| 106 | + `Channel: ${event.channel} - State: ${event.channelstatestr}` |
| 107 | + ); |
| 108 | + }); |
| 109 | + } catch (err) { |
| 110 | + console.error("Error:", err); |
| 111 | + } finally { |
| 112 | + await ami.close(); |
| 113 | + } |
| 114 | +})(); |
| 115 | +``` |
| 116 | + |
| 117 | +### Using Custom Actions: you can send any action to the Asterisk server by creating a custom action instance and pass any parameters you want. |
| 118 | + |
| 119 | +```typescript |
| 120 | +import { AMI, AmiEvents actions } from "tsami"; |
| 121 | + |
| 122 | +(async function main() { |
| 123 | + const ami = new AMI({ |
| 124 | + host: "localhost", |
| 125 | + port: 5038, |
| 126 | + username: "admin", |
| 127 | + password: "secret", |
| 128 | + }); |
| 129 | + |
| 130 | + try { |
| 131 | + ami.open(); |
| 132 | + await new Promise((resolve) => ami.once(AmiEvents.Connected, resolve)); |
| 133 | + |
| 134 | + // Create a custom action |
| 135 | + const dialAction = new actions.CustomAction("Originate", { |
| 136 | + Channel: "SIP/1000", |
| 137 | + Context: "default", |
| 138 | + Exten: "1001", |
| 139 | + Priority: 1, |
| 140 | + Callerid: "TSAMI <1234>", |
| 141 | + Timeout: 30000, |
| 142 | + }); |
| 143 | + |
| 144 | + const response = await ami.asyncSend(dialAction); |
| 145 | + console.log("Originate response:", response.response); |
| 146 | + } catch (err) { |
| 147 | + console.error("Error:", err); |
| 148 | + } finally { |
| 149 | + await ami.close(); |
| 150 | + } |
| 151 | +})(); |
| 152 | +``` |
| 153 | + |
| 154 | +## API Reference |
| 155 | + |
| 156 | +### Main Classes |
| 157 | + |
| 158 | +#### AMI |
| 159 | + |
| 160 | +The primary client class for AMI connections. |
| 161 | + |
| 162 | +```typescript |
| 163 | +// Constructor |
| 164 | +const ami = new AMI(options: AmiClientOptions); |
| 165 | + |
| 166 | +// Methods |
| 167 | +ami.open(): void; // Open the connection |
| 168 | +ami.close(): Promise<void>; // Close the connection |
| 169 | +ami.send(action: Action, callback: Function); // Send an action with callback |
| 170 | +ami.asyncSend(action: Action): Promise<Response>; // Send an action, returns Promise |
| 171 | +``` |
| 172 | + |
| 173 | +#### Events |
| 174 | + |
| 175 | +The AMI client emits various events during operation: |
| 176 | + |
| 177 | +```typescript |
| 178 | +// TCP Socket Events |
| 179 | +ami.on(AmiSocketEvents.Connected, () => {}); // Socket connected |
| 180 | +ami.on(AmiSocketEvents.Error, (error) => {}); // Socket error |
| 181 | +ami.on(AmiSocketEvents.Closed, (hadError) => {}); // Socket closed |
| 182 | +ami.on(AmiSocketEvents.Timeout, () => {}); // Socket timeout |
| 183 | +ami.on(AmiSocketEvents.Ended, () => {}); // Socket ended |
| 184 | + |
| 185 | +// AMI Events |
| 186 | +ami.on(AmiEvents.Connected, () => {}); // Authenticated with AMI |
| 187 | +ami.on(AmiEvents.Event, (event) => {}); // Received AMI event |
| 188 | +ami.on(AmiEvents.LoginIncorrect, () => {}); // Authentication failed |
| 189 | +ami.on(AmiEvents.RawMessage, (msg) => {}); // Raw AMI message |
| 190 | +ami.on(AmiEvents.RawEvent, (event) => {}); // Raw AMI event before processing |
| 191 | +ami.on(AmiEvents.RawResponse, (response) => {}); // Raw AMI response before processing |
| 192 | +ami.on(AmiEvents.InvalidPeer, () => {}); // Invalid AMI socket connection |
| 193 | +``` |
| 194 | + |
| 195 | +### Configuration Options |
| 196 | + |
| 197 | +```typescript |
| 198 | +interface AmiClientOptions { |
| 199 | + host: string; // Asterisk server hostname/IP |
| 200 | + port: number; // AMI port (default: 5038) |
| 201 | + username: string; // AMI username |
| 202 | + password: string; // AMI password |
| 203 | + logLevel?: number; // Log level (0: error, 1: warn, 2: info, 3: debug, -1: none) (default: 0) |
| 204 | + logger?: Logger; // Custom logger implementation |
| 205 | +} |
| 206 | +``` |
| 207 | + |
| 208 | +## Examples |
| 209 | + |
| 210 | +### Listening for Specific Events |
| 211 | + |
| 212 | +```typescript |
| 213 | +import { AMI } from "tsami"; |
| 214 | + |
| 215 | +(async function main() { |
| 216 | + const ami = new AMI({ |
| 217 | + host: "localhost", |
| 218 | + port: 5038, |
| 219 | + username: "admin", |
| 220 | + password: "secret", |
| 221 | + }); |
| 222 | + |
| 223 | + // Listen for hangup events |
| 224 | + ami.on("HangupEvent", (event) => { |
| 225 | + console.log( |
| 226 | + `Call ended on channel ${event.channel} with cause: ${event.cause}` |
| 227 | + ); |
| 228 | + }); |
| 229 | + |
| 230 | + // Listen for new channels |
| 231 | + ami.on("NewchannelEvent", (event) => { |
| 232 | + console.log( |
| 233 | + `New channel ${event.channel} created with state ${event.channelstatestr}` |
| 234 | + ); |
| 235 | + }); |
| 236 | + |
| 237 | + ami.open(); |
| 238 | +})(); |
| 239 | +``` |
| 240 | + |
| 241 | +### Handling Reconnection |
| 242 | + |
| 243 | +```typescript |
| 244 | +import { AMI, AmiEvents, AmiSocketEvents } from "tsami"; |
| 245 | + |
| 246 | +(async function main() { |
| 247 | + const ami = new AMI({ |
| 248 | + host: "localhost", |
| 249 | + port: 5038, |
| 250 | + username: "admin", |
| 251 | + password: "root", |
| 252 | + }); |
| 253 | + |
| 254 | + ami.on(AmiSocketEvents.Closed, (hadError) => { |
| 255 | + console.log(`Connection closed${hadError ? " with error" : ""}`); |
| 256 | + |
| 257 | + if (hadError) { |
| 258 | + ami.open(); |
| 259 | + } |
| 260 | + }); |
| 261 | + |
| 262 | + ami.on(AmiEvents.Connected, () => { |
| 263 | + console.log("Successfully connected and authenticated"); |
| 264 | + }); |
| 265 | + |
| 266 | + ami.open(); |
| 267 | +})(); |
| 268 | +``` |
| 269 | + |
| 270 | +## Best Practices |
| 271 | + |
| 272 | +1. **Always close connections** when they're no longer needed using `await ami.close()` |
| 273 | +2. **Handle reconnection** gracefully for production applications |
| 274 | +3. **Use try/catch blocks** with async/await for proper error handling |
| 275 | +4. **Set appropriate log levels** based on your environment (lower in production) |
| 276 | +5. **Subscribe to relevant events** rather than processing all AMI events |
| 277 | +6. **Implement rate limiting** for actions to avoid overwhelming the Asterisk server |
| 278 | +7. **Use typed events** for more maintainable code with TypeScript |
| 279 | + |
| 280 | +## Testing |
| 281 | + |
| 282 | +Run the test suite with: |
| 283 | + |
| 284 | +```bash |
| 285 | +npm test |
| 286 | +``` |
