MicroVBX

A micro VBX framework for Twilio built on Flask.

Usage

  1. Run MicroVBX like any flask app. The easiest way to get going:

    python app.rb

  2. In a new terminal, use Ngrok to proxy a public web address for your app:

    ngrok 5000

  3. Create a new flow for your app. See flows/wedding.py for an example.

  4. Assign the ngrok URL and flow route to one of your Twilio numbers. For example:

    Voice Request Url: http://7b5a904a.ngrok.com/myflow

  5. Call your Twilio phone number!

Design

  • A library of reusable plugins provide for common use cases atop of TwiML.
  • A flow is a state machine of configured applets and their transitions which forms the call tree.
  • Multiple flows are supported, each corresponding to a separate flask route.

Many of these applets are based on openvbx.org plugins.

Example

MicroVBX was built for RSVPing to my wedding by phone. This is included as an example flow.
