FritzAB reads out the answering machine (TAM) of a Fritz!Box in your LAN and writes it to the local file system. A fork of this repo which removes the sendig of the voice message via matrix and adds some tweaks.
Find pre build images on docker hub. The tag "latest" is rebuild every month if updates exists or on every push to main branch. The version-tags are never changed.
- Set MARK_MESSAGE_READ=False if you do not want to mark voice messages retrieved to be marked as read.
- Set DELETE_MESSAGE_=True if you do want to delete voice messages retrieved.
If you like to test this repository you are recommended to use one of the following two options.
- Create a new user (e.g. "fritzab") in your Fritz!Box. Don't use your default admin account!
- This user needs only the privileges regarding voice messages and to read from box's storage.
- As you only need to access the FRITZ/voicebox/rec/ path you should remove the right to read and write everything and add only this path and only with reading privilege.
- Beware! If you use a USB device as expanded storage for your Fritz!Box and allowed the TAM to use it for storing more messages you will need another path (e.g. Storage-01/FRITZ/voicebox/rec/). You also have to add the FRITZ_VOICEBOX_PATH variable in your .env file (see below) according to that difference.
- You have to activate Call Monitoring on your Fritz!Box by using one of the connected phones and call
#96*5*.- Call monitoring watches the box and the FritzAB2 is triggered every time a call disconnects.
- If you cannot activate Call Monitoring the only way to use FritzAB2 will be to have a cron job call it regularly.
- Create a new folder wherever you like in your home directory.
- Make it a virtual environment by
python3 -m venv <new folder>andsource <new folder>/bin/activate. cd <new folder>
- Make it a virtual environment by
- Clone the repo.
- Inside the repo run
pip install --upgrade pip && pip install -r requirements.txt - Create an
.envfile with your favourite editor:
FRITZ_USERNAME="fritzab2"
FRITZ_PASSWORD="S0meSecretPa5sw02d"
FRITZ_IP="192.168.178.1"
# optional, default values are set automatically
# FRITZ_VOICEBOX_PATH="fritz.nas/FRITZ/voicebox"
# MARK_MESSAGE_READ="True"
# DELETE_MESSAGE="False"
# FRITZ_TAM="0"
.env
- Adjust it according to your data.
- After all that you can finally run
./fritzab2.pyand your TAM messages should be downloaded automatically once recorded to /tmp/rec.
Provided you have docker and docker-compose installed on your system:
- Clone the repo and cd into it.
- Create the above mentioned
.envfile. - Run
docker-compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml buildand watch docker work some minutes. - After that slightly edit the
docker-compose.yml - and add:
volumes:
- /some/path/recordings:/recordings
