A full phone system pre-installed and ready to run with FreeSWITCH and Plivo.org

Phony Box

PhonyBox is an easy to use telephone system managment software written in Node.js and runs on top of FreeSWITCH <https://www.freeswitch.org/>_ and Plivo <https://www.plivo.org/>_. If you are looking to setup a basic phone system for your home or office, look no further.

PhonyBox includes a Vagrant <http://www.vagrantup.com>_ configuration file so you can fire up a virtual box complete with FreeSWITCH, Plivo, Node.js, and MongoDB.

PhonyBox front-end code is written with Backbone.js and is very modular and customizable.

Features

  • Add people and extensions easily
  • Define call routing instructions
  • Record greetings for auto-attendants and define actions for digit combinations
  • Connect to the live phone system easily with our pre-built integration templates

Development Installation

  1. Install Virtual Box <https://www.virtualbox.org/>_ - a cross platform virtual machine program by Oracle

  2. Install Vagrant <http://www.vagrantup.com>_ - a virtual machine provisioner making it easier than ever to automate virtual machine setups

  3. Check out the code...

  4. In your terminal, go to the code directory and type: vagrant up (FYI - on first usage this downloads a rather large (1 gig) virtual machine file)

That is all! You now have a full phone system running in a virtual machine.
