# Notes: This is a script modified from the original to work with a FreePBX Distro PBX so that email notifications sent from
#        Asterisk voicemail contain a a speech to text transcription provided by Google Cloud Speech API

# Usage: copy this file to /usr/sbin/ set ownership to asterisk:asterisk and make it executable.
#        In the [general] section of /etc/asterisk/voicemail.conf set mailcmd=/usr/sbin/sendmail-gcloud
#            or in FreePBX 14 GUI go to Settings->Voicemail->Email Config->Mail Command to set this.
#        This script also uses dos2unix, ensure it is executable by the asterisk user (chmod 777)
#
# Requirements: 
#   Google Cloud services account (paid--free trial available) with Google Speech to Text API enabled
#   gcloud cli utility https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/downloads-yum
#      gcloud utility must be authenticated. Before doing this, 'su asterisk' so authentication happens in the correct user account
#      authenticate with: gcloud auth login
#      select project: gcloud config set project <Project ID>
