Sample Rails 3 app using call_center
Call Roulette is like Chat Roulette but with calls. People call in and are connected to random people. They can "next" their call buddy by pressing '*' until they've talked to their heart's content.
This app requires that you have a Twilio account set up and you have its TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID and TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN set up in your environment variables.
You will also need to set up a Twilio number that points to your app (being sure to replace call-roulette with the name of your Heroku app):
Request URL: http://call-roulette.herokuapp.com/calls/create
Fallback URL: http://call-roulette.herokuapp.com/calls/exception
Status Callback URL: http://call-roulette.herokuapp.com/calls/flow?event=hang_up
This app can be deployed to Heroku in the following steps:
# Cedar stack allows us to run multiple processes
heroku create --stack cedar
# First deploy
git push heroku master
# Set up required variables
heroku config:add TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID=...
heroku config:add TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN=...
heroku config:add TWILIO_TUNNEL_URL=http://name-of-app.herokuapp.com
heroku config:add CALL_ROULETTE_PHONE_NUMBER="(123) 456 7890"
# Start background process that routes calls
heroku scale web=1 clock=1
Non-heroku deploys can just:
export=TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID=...
export=TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN=...
export=TWILIO_TUNNEL_URL=http://name-of-app.herokuapp.com
export=CALL_ROULETTE_PHONE_NUMBER="(123) 456 7890"
bundle install
bundle exec foreman start
