FaxDispatch in Hylafax

How to rename received fax file names?

You can create a file with name FaxDispatch if you already don't have it after installation. file path is /var/spool/hylafax/etc/FaxDispatch . In FaxDispatch you have variables such as callerid number and name. So with a simple dialplan you can change the calleridname and add the asterisk variables you want and use in FaxDispatch. For example I want to save date, time and uniqueid in the fax file name .

here is the Dialplan :

exten => s,1,NOOP( ** Hey Im receiving a Fax ** )
exten => s,n,SET(CALLERID(name)=DATE-${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,%Y-%m-%d)}-TIME-${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,%H-%M-%S)}-UNIQUEID-${UNIQUEID})
exten => s,n,Dial(IAX2/iaxmodem)
exten => s,n,Hangup

and in FaxDispatch you can use $CALLID1 that is callerid number and $CIDNAME that is callerid name.

case "$DEVICE" in
ttyIAX1) cp $FILE /var/spool/hylafax/recvq/FAX-$CALLID1-$CIDNAME.tif;;
esac
