Asterisk Voicemail Authentication Interface

Authentication module for Asterisk voicemail. This module supports authenticating and authorizing users.

Installation

$ git clone https://github.com/asterisk/node-voicemail-auth.git
$ cd node-voicemail-auth
$ npm install -g .

or add the following the your package.json file

"dependencies": {
  "voicemail-auth": "asterisk/node-voicemail-auth"
}

Usage

Create an authenticator:

var dal; // voicemail data access layer instance
var promptHelper; // voicemail prompt instance
var config; // voicemail config instance
var auth = require('voicemail-auth')({
  dal: dal,
  prompt: promptHelper,
  config, config,
  logger: logger // voicemail logging
});
var channel; // channel instance

var authenticator = auth.create(channel);

// initialize with domain/mailbox number
authenticator.init('domain.com', '1234')
  .then(function(mailbox) {
    // use mailbox instance...
  })
  .catch(function (err) {
    err.name; // 'ContextNotFound' or 'MailboxNotFound'
  });

For more information on voicemail data access layer, see voicemail-data. For more information on voicemail prompt, see voicemail-prompt. For more information on voicemail config, see voicemail-config

Set mailbox number for authentication:

authenticator.setMailbox('1234')
  .then(function(mailbox) {
    // use mailbox instance...
  })
  .catch(function(err) {
    err.name; // 'MailboxNotFound'
  });

Attempt to authenticate:

authenticator.authenticate('password');
  .then(function() {
    // authenticated
  })
  .catch(function(err) {
    err.name; // 'InvalidPassword'
  });

To allow authentication to be skipped (for leaving a message for example):

var authenticator = auth.create(channel, true);

You can still call authenticate on the resulting authenticator but it will simply resolve the promise without actually validating the password given against the mailbox.

Note: this module does not currently handle playing authentication related prompts.

Development

After cloning the git repository, run the following to install the module and all dev dependencies:

$ npm install
$ npm link

Then run the following to run jshint and mocha tests:

$ grunt

jshint will enforce a minimal style guide. It is also a good idea to create unit tests when adding new features.

To generate a test coverage report run the following:

$ grunt coverage

This will also ensure a coverage threshold is met by the tests.
