Getting started with Twilio

How does it work

A User calls or sends an SMS to your Twilio phone number

Twilio receives the call or SMS and makes a request to your application

Your app receives that information and sends XML back to Twilio

Twilio executes those instructions and interacts with the user

Connect your twilio # to your application at your server

TwiML examples – Interactive Call

<?php

require "Services/Twilio.php";

/* Set our AccountSid and AuthToken */$sid = "ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";$token = "YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY";

/* Outgoing Caller ID you have previously validated with Twilio */$CallerID = 'NNNNNNNNNN';

/* Instantiate a new Twilio Rest Client */$client = new Services_Twilio($sid, $token);

$url = "http://myapplication.com/welcome.php";

$callingNumber = "888-777-6666";

/* make Twilio REST request to initiate outgoing call */$call = $client->account->calls

->create($CallerID, $callingNumber, $url);

Lets work with PHP-REST API for Twilio

Let your web browser do the dialing for you Use twilio.js to perform client side

programming Make calls from the browser Receive calls in the browser Make calls between two browsers

Twilio Client – the new way of making a phone call

<?phpinclude 'Services/Twilio/Capability.php';

$accountSid = 'ACxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';$authToken = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';$clientName = "PHPXperts";

$token = new Services_Twilio_Capability($accountSid, $authToken);$token->allowClientOutgoing('APxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx');$token->allowClientIncoming($clientName);$activeToken = $token->generateToken();?><script type="text/javascript" src="http://static.twilio.com/libs/twiliojs/1.0/twilio.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js"></

script><script type="text/javascript">$(document).ready(function(){

Twilio.Device.setup("<?php echo $activeToken;?>");params = { "client" : "<?php echo $clientName;?>" };Twilio.Device.connect(params);Twilio.Device.incoming(function (conn) {

conn.accept();});

});</script>

Twilio Client – Browser to Browser call

Private Chats(Unlimited one-to-one chat sessions)

Broadcasts (Up to 2500 viewers) Talk Shows (Have multiple hosts

broadcasting) Conferences (With up to 50 people

together)

OpenTok – broadcast yourself for free!!!

Easy sign up process Easy to follow documentation Simple Javascript & actionscript library for

client side PHP, .NET, Ruby, Java, Node.js, Pythod

library for server side Already build in plugins for your need

Getting started

<?php require_once 'SDK/API_Config.php'; require_once 'SDK/OpenTokSDK.php'; require_once 'SDK/SessionPropertyConstants.php';

$apiObj = new OpenTokSDK(API_Config::API_KEY, API_Config::API_SECRET); $session = $apiObj->create_session($_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]); $sessionId = $session->getSessionId();?>

<html><head>

<title>OpenTok - PHPXpert Sample App</title><script src="http://staging.tokbox.com/v0.91/js/TB.min.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">var session = TB.initSession("<?php echo $sessionId?>"); // Session ID.

session.addEventListener("sessionConnected", sessionConnectedHandler);session.addEventListener("streamCreated", streamCreatedHandler);session.connect(1127, "devtoken"); // OpenTok sample API key and sample token

string.

Simple Example

function sessionConnectedHandler(event) { subscribeToStreams(event.streams); session.publish();

}

function streamCreatedHandler(event) {subscribeToStreams(event.streams);

}

function subscribeToStreams(streams) {for (i = 0; i < streams.length; i++) {

var stream = streams[i];if (stream.connection.connectionId != session.connection.connectionId) {

session.subscribe(stream);}

}}
