What Was Implemented

This PR adds complete softphone functionality to the platform with Twilio telephony and OpenAI Realtime API integration.

Backend Changes

  1. WebSocket Support

    • Added @fastify/websocket to enable WebSocket in Fastify
    • Configured @nestjs/websockets with Socket.IO adapter
    • Modified main.ts to register WebSocket support
  2. Database Schema

    • Added integrationsConfig JSON field to Tenant model (encrypted)
    • Created calls table migration for tenant databases
    • Generated Prisma client with new schema
  3. VoiceModule (backend/src/voice/)

    • voice.module.ts - Module registration
    • voice.gateway.ts - WebSocket gateway with JWT auth
    • voice.service.ts - Twilio & OpenAI integration
    • voice.controller.ts - REST endpoints and webhooks
    • DTOs and interfaces for type safety
  4. Tenant Management

    • tenant.controller.ts - New endpoints for integrations config
    • Encryption/decryption helpers in tenant-database.service.ts

Frontend Changes

  1. Composables

    • useSoftphone.ts - Global state management with WebSocket
  2. Components

    • SoftphoneDialog.vue - Full softphone UI with dialer, call controls, AI features
    • Integrated into default.vue layout
    • Added button to AppSidebar.vue with incoming call indicator
  3. Pages

    • settings/integrations.vue - Configure Twilio and OpenAI credentials
  4. Dependencies

    • Added socket.io-client for WebSocket connectivity

Documentation

  1. SOFTPHONE_IMPLEMENTATION.md - Comprehensive technical documentation
  2. SOFTPHONE_QUICK_START.md - User-friendly setup guide

🎯 Key Features

  • Outbound calling with dialer
  • Inbound call notifications with ringtone
  • Real-time call controls (mute, DTMF, hang up)
  • Call history tracking
  • AI-powered transcription (OpenAI Realtime)
  • AI suggestions during calls
  • Tool calling for CRM actions
  • Multi-tenant with encrypted credentials per tenant
  • WebSocket-based real-time communication
  • Responsive UI with shadcn-vue components

📦 New Dependencies

Backend

{
  "@fastify/websocket": "^latest",
  "@nestjs/websockets": "^10.x",
  "@nestjs/platform-socket.io": "^10.x",
  "socket.io": "^latest",
  "twilio": "^latest",
  "openai": "^latest",
  "ws": "^latest"
}

Frontend

{
  "socket.io-client": "^latest"
}

🚀 Quick Start

1. Run Migrations

cd backend
npx prisma generate --schema=./prisma/schema-central.prisma
npm run migrate:all-tenants

2. Configure Tenant

  1. Log into tenant account
  2. Go to Settings → Integrations
  3. Add Twilio credentials (Account SID, Auth Token, Phone Number)
  4. Add OpenAI API key (optional, for AI features)
  5. Save configuration

3. Use Softphone

  1. Click "Softphone" button in sidebar
  2. Enter phone number and click "Call"
  3. Or receive incoming calls automatically

🔐 Security

  • All credentials encrypted with AES-256-CBC
  • JWT authentication for WebSocket connections
  • Tenant isolation via database-per-tenant architecture
  • Sensitive fields masked in API responses

📊 Database Changes

Central Database

ALTER TABLE tenants ADD COLUMN integrationsConfig JSON;

Tenant Databases

CREATE TABLE calls (
  id VARCHAR(36) PRIMARY KEY,
  call_sid VARCHAR(100) UNIQUE NOT NULL,
  direction ENUM('inbound', 'outbound'),
  from_number VARCHAR(20),
  to_number VARCHAR(20),
  status VARCHAR(20),
  duration_seconds INT,
  recording_url VARCHAR(500),
  ai_transcript TEXT,
  ai_summary TEXT,
  ai_insights JSON,
  user_id VARCHAR(36),
  started_at TIMESTAMP,
  ended_at TIMESTAMP,
  created_at TIMESTAMP,
  updated_at TIMESTAMP,
  FOREIGN KEY (user_id) REFERENCES users(id)
);

🎨 UI Components

  • SoftphoneDialog: Main softphone interface

    • Dialer with numeric keypad
    • Incoming call banner with accept/reject
    • Active call controls
    • Real-time transcript view
    • AI suggestions panel
    • Recent calls list
  • Sidebar Integration: Phone button with notification badge

🔄 API Endpoints

REST

  • POST /api/voice/call - Initiate call
  • GET /api/voice/calls - Get call history
  • GET /api/tenant/integrations - Get config
  • PUT /api/tenant/integrations - Update config

WebSocket (/voice namespace)

  • call:initiate - Start outbound call
  • call:accept - Accept incoming call
  • call:reject - Reject incoming call
  • call:end - End active call
  • call:dtmf - Send DTMF tone
  • ai:transcript - Receive transcription
  • ai:suggestion - Receive AI suggestion

⚠️ Known Limitations

  1. Media Streaming: Twilio Media Streams WebSocket not fully implemented
  2. Call Routing: Basic inbound call handling (no intelligent routing yet)
  3. RBAC: Voice-specific permissions not yet integrated
  4. Audio Muting: UI present but actual audio muting not implemented
  5. Queue System: No call queue management (single call at a time)

🔮 Future Enhancements

  1. Full Twilio Media Streams integration for audio forking
  2. Intelligent call routing (availability-based, round-robin, skills-based)
  3. Call queue management with BullMQ
  4. RBAC permissions (voice.make_calls, voice.receive_calls)
  5. WebRTC for browser-based audio
  6. Call analytics dashboard
  7. IVR (Interactive Voice Response) system
  8. Call recording download and playback
  9. Voicemail support

🧪 Testing

Manual Testing Checklist

  • Install dependencies
  • Run migrations
  • Configure Twilio credentials
  • Make outbound call
  • Receive inbound call (requires public webhook URL)
  • Test call controls (mute, DTMF, hang up)
  • Configure OpenAI and test AI features
  • Check call history
  • Test on multiple browsers

Twilio Test Mode

Use Twilio test credentials for development without making real calls.

🐛 Troubleshooting

Issue Solution
Build errors Run npm install in both backend and frontend
WebSocket connection fails Check BACKEND_URL env variable
Calls not working Verify Twilio credentials in Settings → Integrations
AI features not working Add OpenAI API key in integrations settings
