Usage

1. Importing the Package

const twilioHelper = require('@parloa/twilio-helper-package');

2. Making a Twilio Call

const options = {
  accountSid: 'your_account_sid',
  authToken: 'your_auth_token',
  fromNumber: 'your_twilio_phone_number',
  toNumber: 'destination_phone_number',
  textToPlay: 'text_to_say_or_mp3_url',
  seconds: 5, // duration of pauses in seconds
  twiMLType: 'sayAndPause', // or 'mp3'
};

twilioHelper.makeTwilioCall(options)
  .then(callSid => {
    console.log(`Twilio call initiated with Call SID: ${callSid}`);
  })
  .catch(error => {
    console.error(`Error: ${error.message}`);
  });

3. Adding Parts to an Existing Twilio Call

const { accountSid, authToken, callSid } = options; // reuse options or provide necessary values
const ssml = '<speak>additional_text_to_say</speak>';

twilioHelper.addPartToTwilioCall(accountSid, authToken, callSid, ssml, 3)
  .then(updatedCallSid => {
    console.log(`Twilio call updated with additional part. Updated Call SID: ${updatedCallSid}`);
  })
  .catch(error => {
    console.error(`Error: ${error.message}`);
  });

4. Waiting for a Call to Complete

twilioHelper.waitForCallToComplete(accountSid, authToken, callSid)
  .then(completedCall => {
    console.log(`Twilio call completed. Final Call Status: ${completedCall.status}`);
  })
  .catch(error => {
    console.error(`Error: ${error.message}`);
  });
