IP Phone

From Medien Wiki

Kontextmenü in Mac OS X Kontakte.app (vor OS 10.8: Adressbuch.app)

Um über ein Klick den im OS X Adressbuch geöffneten Kontakt anzuwählen kann folgendes AppleScript verwendet werden, es kann als Call with IP Phone.scpt in ~/Library/Address Book plugins/ gelegt werden. Voraussetzung für das Funktionieren des Scripts ist, dass man schon die Sicherheitszertifikate der Webdialer-URL mit Safari importiert hat und dass man in dort schon eingeloggt ist (Login muss beim SCC beantragt werden). Außerdem muss JavaScript in Safari aktiviert sein[1].

Dial a number with your Cisco IP Phone from within the Mac OS X Contacts.app (formerly known as Address Book.app). Rightclick and use the context menue and select Dial with IP Phone.

Known issues

  1. Scripting doesn't seem to be possible for the Contacts.app Mac OS 10.9 (Mavericks). Also see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5914
  2. browser window opens and resizes
  3. there are internal numbers which do not start with 58****. They aren't recognized at the moment.
  4. doesn't work with ugly number formats like +49 (0)170 123456789 fixed.
  5. since recently the webdialer stopped working (for me?) hence the whole script has become useless. investigating the issue. that turned out to be a hardware issue of the phone. replaced phone and it works again.
  6. stopped working after internal call fix fixed, works again
  7. University numbers like +49 3643 583872 will be called externally, that means it will cost money! fixed (surprisingly the cisco phone system isn't that smart to correct that internally)
  8. doesn't work with phone number which start like 0049...., (0049), (49) fixed
  9. only works with phone numbers in Germany so far fixed
  10. doesn't work if page loading in browser takes longer than 1 sec. fixed.

Thunderbird Address Book integration

I don't know if there is such a thing. Possible starting points:

Bemerkungen

  1. Schöner als ein Skript für den Browser (in diesem Fall Apple Safari.app) wäre eine Lösung, welche im Hintergrund funktioniert, z.B. mit cURL. Leider gibt es mit cURL unüberwindbare Probleme durch die SSL-Zertifikate und des JavaScrips der Cisco-Seite. Falls eine Telnet-Verbindung zum Telefon aufgebaut werden könnte, dann ließe sich auch diese Methode verwenden
