# Asterisk Project : Followme - Realtime

Added by mdavenport , edited by mdavenport on Aug 27, 2010

Followme is now realtime-enabled.

To use, you must define two backend data structures, with the following fields:

    followme:
    	name                Name of this followme entry.  Specified when invoking the FollowMe
    	                    application in the dialplan.  This field is the only one which is
    	                    mandatory.  All of the other fields will inherit the default from
    	                    followme.conf, if not specified in this data resource.
    	musicclass OR       The musiconhold class used for the caller while waiting to be
    	musiconhold OR      connected.
        music
    	context             Dialplan context from which to dial numbers
    	takecall            DTMF used to accept the call and be connected.  For obvious reasons,
    	                    this needs to be a single digit, '*', or '#'.
    	declinecall         DTMF used to refuse the call, sending it onto the next step, if any.
    	call_from_prompt    Prompt to play to the callee, announcing the call.
    	norecording_prompt  The alternate prompt to play to the callee, when the caller
    	                    refuses to leave a name (or the option isn't set to allow them).
    	options_prompt      Normally, "press 1 to accept, 2 to decline".
    	hold_prompt         Message played to the caller while dialing the followme steps.
    	status_prompt       Normally, "Party is not at their desk".
    	sorry_prompt        Normally, "Unable to locate party".

    followme_numbers:
    	name                Name of this followme entry.  Must match the name above.
    	ordinal             An integer, specifying the order in which these numbers will be
    	                    followed.
    	phonenumber         The telephone number(s) you would like to call, separated by '&'.
    	timeout             Timeout associated with this step.  See the followme documentation
    	                    for more information on how this value is handled.
