# teams-call
Shell script to detect when you're on a Microsoft Teams Call.
## Bash script
When calling the script it will exit with
* 0 if you're on a call
* 1 if you're not
## Python script
```python
import teams_call
isInCall = teams_call.isInCall()
```
## How?
You don't wanna know.
## Seriously... how?
When I connect to a call I see
`eventData: s::;m::1;a::1` in ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/logs.txt and when I disconnect it writes `eventData: s::;m::1;a::3`.
Sad, but you asked for it.
Couldn't find any other way.
Specifically, the GraphQL API for checking the call presence is deprecated since v1.0 and I didn't want to scrape the network traffic or screengrab the status icon.
* eventData: s::;m::1;a::0 call in call + screen is shared
* eventData: s::;m::1;a::1 call started / joined
* eventData: s::;m::1;a::3 call left
## Why?
I couldn't find a script that does this.
Using it to indicate that I'm busy with a status LED outside the office.
Using this script in combination with [ControlPlane](https://www.controlplaneapp.com/) to trigger the LED on status change.
## Limitations
Supports macOS and Linux. For Windows, see [this project](https://github.com/EBOOZ/TeamsStatus).
