Java Voice Quickstart

This quickstart serves as a guide to get your first Voice application up and running with FreeClimb.

Specifically, the project will:

• Receive an incoming call via a FreeClimb application
• Respond with a PerCL command to say 'Hello World!' to caller

Tutorial

We offer a Java Voice Quickstart Tutorial for more detailed set-up instructions and explanation of how FreeClimb works.

Requirements

A FreeClimb account

A registered application with a named alias

A configured FreeClimb number assigned to your application

Trial accounts: a verified number

Tools:

• Java 8 or higher
• Gradle 5.5 or higher
• ngrok (recommended for hosting)
• Git

Setting up the Quickstart

1. Make your local server publicly accessible

   ngrok http 3000

   Once you run ngrok you should receive a response with a public URL, that looks something like 'https://ba1c-63-209-137-19.ngrok-free.app'.

2. Configure your applications's endpoints by adding a publicly accessible URL (we recommend an ngrok URL) and the route reference /incomingCall to your App Config's VoiceURL:

   https://YOUR-URL.ngrok-free.app/incomingCall

Running the Quickstart

1. Start your voice quickstart application

   gradle build && java -Dserver.port=3000 -jar build/libs/java-voice-quickstart.jar

2. Call the FreeClimb number assigned to the application you've configured for this tutorial

Using Docker to Run the Quickstart

1. Pull docker image from dockerhub

   docker pull freeclimbapi/java-voice-quickstart

2. Run docker image

   docker run -p 3000:3000 freeclimbapi/java-voice-quickstart
