[![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)
[![Rust Version](https://img.shields.io/badge/rust-1.70%2B-blue.svg)](https://www.rust-lang.org)

A comprehensive, type-safe Rust library for generating [TwiML (Twilio Markup Language)](https://www.twilio.com/docs/voice/twiml) XML responses for Voice, Messaging, and Fax applications.

TwiML is Twilio's XML-based language for controlling phone calls, SMS/MMS messages, and faxes. This library provides an idiomatic Rust API with strong type safety, builder patterns, and zero external dependencies.

## Features

- **Comprehensive Voice Support**: All TwiML voice verbs including Say, Play, Dial, Gather, Record, Connect, Enqueue, Pay, and more
- **Messaging (SMS/MMS)**: Full support for text and multimedia messages with multiple media attachments
- **Fax Operations**: Configure fax reception with PDF/TIFF formats and custom page sizes
- **Built-in Validation**: Validate TwiML structure, URLs, phone numbers, and content lengths
- **Type Safety**: Strongly typed API with builder patterns for compile-time correctness
- **Zero Dependencies**: No external dependencies for maximum compatibility and minimal footprint
- **Full SSML Support**: Advanced speech synthesis with break, emphasis, prosody, phonemes, and more
- **Security**: Automatic XML escaping to prevent injection attacks
- **Well Documented**: Comprehensive documentation with examples for every feature
- **Thoroughly Tested**: 167+ tests ensuring reliability and correctness

## Installation

Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
twiml-rust = "0.1.0"
```

**Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV)**: 1.70

## Quick Start

### Simple Voice Call

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, TwiML};

fn main() {
    let response = VoiceResponse::new()
        .say("Hello! Welcome to TwiML Rust.")
        .play("https://example.com/music.mp3")
        .hangup();

    println!("{}", response.to_xml());
}
```

**Output:**
```xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Response>
  <Say>Hello! Welcome to TwiML Rust.</Say>
  <Play>https://example.com/music.mp3</Play>
  <Hangup/>
</Response>
```

### Simple SMS Message

```rust
use twiml_rust::{MessagingResponse, TwiML};

fn main() {
    let response = MessagingResponse::new()
        .message("Thanks for your message! We'll get back to you soon.");

    println!("{}", response.to_xml());
}
```

**Output:**
```xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Response>
  <Message>Thanks for your message! We'll get back to you soon.</Message>
</Response>
```

## Comprehensive Examples

### Interactive Voice Response (IVR)

Build sophisticated phone menus with DTMF and speech recognition:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::{Gather, Say}, TwiML};

fn main() {
    let gather = Gather::new()
        .input(vec!["dtmf".to_string(), "speech".to_string()])
        .action("https://example.com/process-input")
        .timeout(10)
        .num_digits(1)
        .add_say(Say::new("Press 1 for sales, 2 for support, or say a department name."));

    let response = VoiceResponse::new()
        .say("Welcome to our automated system.")
        .gather(gather)
        .say("We didn't receive any input. Goodbye!")
        .hangup();

    println!("{}", response.to_xml());
}
```

### Call Forwarding with Dial

Forward calls to phone numbers, SIP addresses, or Twilio clients:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::{Dial, DialNumber}, TwiML};

fn main() {
    let dial = Dial::new()
        .timeout(30)
        .caller_id("+15551234567")
        .add_number(
            DialNumber::new("+15559876543")
                .send_digits("wwww1234")  // Send DTMF after connection
        );

    let response = VoiceResponse::new()
        .say("Please wait while we connect your call.")
        .dial_with(dial)
        .say("The call could not be completed. Please try again later.")
        .hangup();

    println!("{}", response.to_xml());
}
```

### Voice Recording (Voicemail)

Record caller messages with transcription:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::Record, TwiML};

fn main() {
    let record = Record::new()
        .action("https://example.com/handle-recording")
        .method("POST")
        .max_length(120)
        .finish_on_key("#")
        .transcribe(true)
        .transcribe_callback("https://example.com/transcription");

    let response = VoiceResponse::new()
        .say("Please leave a message after the beep. Press pound when finished.")
        .record(record)
        .say("Thank you for your message. Goodbye!")
        .hangup();

    println!("{}", response.to_xml());
}
```

### MMS with Multiple Media Attachments

Send multimedia messages with images, videos, or other media:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{MessagingResponse, messaging::{Message, MessageAttributes, Body, Media}, TwiML};

fn main() {
    let message = Message::with_nouns(
        MessageAttributes::new()
            .to("+15551234567")
            .from("+15559876543")
    )
    .body(Body::new("Here are the photos from today's event!"))
    .add_media(Media::new("https://example.com/photo1.jpg"))
    .add_media(Media::new("https://example.com/photo2.jpg"))
    .add_media(Media::new("https://example.com/photo3.jpg"));

    let response = MessagingResponse::new()
        .message_with_nouns(message);

    println!("{}", response.to_xml());
}
```

### Advanced SSML (Speech Synthesis)

Use SSML for fine-grained control over speech synthesis:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::Say, TwiML};

fn main() {
    let say = Say::new("Welcome to our service")
        .voice("Polly.Joanna")
        .language("en-US")
        .add_break(Some("medium".to_string()), None)
        .add_emphasis(Some("strong".to_string()), "Please listen carefully")
        .add_break(None, Some("1s".to_string()))
        .add_prosody(
            Some("high".to_string()),    // pitch
            Some("slow".to_string()),    // rate
            None,                         // volume
            "This is important information"
        );

    let response = VoiceResponse::new()
        .say_with(say)
        .hangup();

    println!("{}", response.to_xml());
}
```

### Conference Calls

Create and manage conference calls:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::{Dial, DialConference}, TwiML};

fn main() {
    let conference = DialConference::new("MyConferenceRoom")
        .start_conference_on_enter(true)
        .end_conference_on_exit(false)
        .wait_url("https://example.com/wait-music")
        .max_participants(10)
        .beep("true");

    let dial = Dial::new().add_conference(conference);

    let response = VoiceResponse::new()
        .say("You are joining the conference.")
        .dial_with(dial);

    println!("{}", response.to_xml());
}
```

### Fax Reception

Configure fax reception with custom settings:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{FaxResponse, fax::{ReceiveAttributes, ReceiveMediaType, ReceivePageSize}, TwiML};

fn main() {
    let response = FaxResponse::new()
        .receive(Some(
            ReceiveAttributes::new()
                .action("https://example.com/fax-received")
                .method("POST")
                .media_type(ReceiveMediaType::ApplicationPdf)
                .page_size(ReceivePageSize::Letter)
                .store_media(true)
        ));

    println!("{}", response.to_xml());
}
```

## Validation

The library includes comprehensive validation to catch errors before sending TwiML to Twilio:

### Basic Validation

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, TwiML, validate_twiml};

let response = VoiceResponse::new()
    .say("Hello!")
    .hangup();

let xml = response.to_xml();

// Validate the generated TwiML
match validate_twiml(&xml) {
    Ok(warnings) => {
        if warnings.is_empty() {
            println!("✓ Valid TwiML with no warnings");
        } else {
            println!("✓ Valid TwiML with {} warnings:", warnings.len());
            for warning in warnings {
                println!("  - {}", warning);
            }
        }
    }
    Err(e) => eprintln!("✗ Invalid TwiML: {}", e),
}
```

### Strict Validation

Enable strict validation for production environments:

```rust
use twiml_rust::validate_twiml_strict;

match validate_twiml_strict(&xml) {
    Ok(warnings) => println!("Passed strict validation"),
    Err(e) => eprintln!("Failed strict validation: {}", e),
}
```

### What Gets Validated

- **XML Well-formedness**: Proper XML structure and balanced tags
- **Required Elements**: Presence of `<?xml>` declaration and `<Response>` root
- **URL Validation**: URLs start with `http://`, `https://`, or `/`
- **Phone Numbers**: E.164 format validation (starts with `+`)
- **Content Lengths**: Say content (4096 chars), Message body (1600 chars)
- **Logic Warnings**: Unreachable verbs, infinite loops, etc.

### Validation Warnings

The library also provides warnings for potential logic issues:

```rust
use twiml_rust::MessagingResponse;

let response = MessagingResponse::new()
    .redirect("https://example.com")
    .message("This will never be sent!");  // Warning: unreachable

let warnings = response.validate();
for warning in warnings {
    println!("âš  {}", warning);
}
// Output: âš  Warning: 1 verb(s) after Redirect at index 0 will never be reached
```

## Security

### XML Injection Prevention

All user-provided content is automatically escaped to prevent XML injection attacks:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, TwiML};

let user_input = "<script>alert('xss')</script>";
let response = VoiceResponse::new().say(user_input);

println!("{}", response.to_xml());
// Output: <Say>&lt;script&gt;alert('xss')&lt;/script&gt;</Say>
```

The library provides two escaping functions:
- `escape_xml_text()` - For text content between tags
- `escape_xml_attr()` - For attribute values (also escapes quotes)

### Best Practices

1. **Always validate** TwiML before sending to production
2. **Use strict validation** in production environments
3. **Never disable** automatic XML escaping
4. **Validate user input** before using in phone numbers or URLs
5. **Use HTTPS** for all callback URLs in production

## Use Cases

### Customer Support IVR

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::Gather, TwiML};

fn support_menu() -> String {
    let gather = Gather::new()
        .input(vec!["dtmf".to_string()])
        .action("https://example.com/handle-menu")
        .num_digits(1)
        .add_say("Press 1 for account issues, 2 for technical support, 3 for billing.");

    VoiceResponse::new()
        .say("Thank you for calling customer support.")
        .gather(gather)
        .say("We didn't receive your selection. Goodbye.")
        .hangup()
        .to_xml()
}
```

### Appointment Reminders

```rust
use twiml_rust::{MessagingResponse, TwiML};

fn send_reminder(name: &str, date: &str, time: &str) -> String {
    MessagingResponse::new()
        .message(format!(
            "Hi {}, this is a reminder of your appointment on {} at {}. Reply CONFIRM to confirm.",
            name, date, time
        ))
        .to_xml()
}
```

### Call Recording System

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::Record, TwiML};

fn voicemail_system() -> String {
    let record = Record::new()
        .action("https://example.com/save-recording")
        .max_length(180)
        .transcribe(true)
        .transcribe_callback("https://example.com/transcription")
        .play_beep(true);

    VoiceResponse::new()
        .say("You have reached the voicemail of John Doe.")
        .say("Please leave a message after the beep.")
        .record(record)
        .say("Thank you. Your message has been recorded.")
        .hangup()
        .to_xml()
}
```

### Two-Factor Authentication

```rust
use twiml_rust::{MessagingResponse, TwiML};

fn send_2fa_code(code: &str) -> String {
    MessagingResponse::new()
        .message(format!("Your verification code is: {}. Do not share this code.", code))
        .to_xml()
}
```

## Examples

See the [`examples/`](examples/) directory for complete, runnable examples:

- **`voice_call.rs`** - Voice call handling with IVR, call forwarding, voicemail, and SSML
- **`sms_message.rs`** - SMS/MMS messaging with media attachments and attributes
- **`fax_receive.rs`** - Fax reception configuration with various options

Run examples with:
```bash
cargo run --example voice_call
cargo run --example sms_message
cargo run --example fax_receive
```

## Architecture

### Core Traits

The library is built around the `TwiML` trait:

```rust
pub trait TwiML {
    fn to_xml(&self) -> String;
}
```

All response types (`VoiceResponse`, `MessagingResponse`, `FaxResponse`) implement this trait, providing a consistent interface for XML generation.

### Builder Pattern

All verbs and nouns use the builder pattern for ergonomic API:

```rust
let dial = Dial::new()
    .timeout(30)
    .caller_id("+15551234567")
    .record("record-from-answer")
    .add_number(DialNumber::new("+15559876543"));
```

### Type Safety

The library uses Rust's type system to prevent invalid TwiML:

- Enums for valid values (e.g., `ReceiveMediaType::ApplicationPdf`)
- Optional types for optional attributes
- Nested enums for verb-specific nouns (e.g., `DialNoun`, `GatherNoun`)

## Advanced Features

### Comments in TwiML

Add XML comments for debugging or documentation:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, TwiML};

let response = VoiceResponse::new()
    .comment_before("Generated by my application v1.0")
    .comment("Main greeting")
    .say("Hello!")
    .comment_after("End of TwiML");

println!("{}", response.to_xml());
```

**Output:**
```xml
<!-- Generated by my application v1.0 -->
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Response>
  <!-- Main greeting -->
  <Say>Hello!</Say>
</Response>
<!-- End of TwiML -->
```

### Custom Voice Attributes

Fine-tune text-to-speech with voices and languages:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::Say, TwiML};

let say = Say::new("Hello, how are you?")
    .voice("Polly.Joanna")      // Amazon Polly voice
    .language("en-US")           // US English
    .loop_count(2);              // Repeat twice

let response = VoiceResponse::new().say_with(say);
```

Supported voices include:
- **Amazon Polly**: `Polly.Joanna`, `Polly.Matthew`, `Polly.Salli`, etc.
- **Google**: `Google.en-US-Standard-A`, `Google.en-GB-Wavenet-B`, etc.
- **Standard**: `man`, `woman`, `alice`

### Machine Detection

Detect answering machines when dialing:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::{Dial, DialNumber}, TwiML};

let dial = Dial::new()
    .add_number(
        DialNumber::new("+15551234567")
            .machine_detection("DetectMessageEnd")
            .machine_detection_timeout(30)
            .amd_status_callback("https://example.com/amd-status")
    );

let response = VoiceResponse::new().dial_with(dial);
```

### SIP Integration

Dial SIP endpoints with custom headers:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::{Dial, DialSip}, TwiML};

let sip = DialSip::new("sip:user@example.com")
    .username("myuser")
    .password("mypass")
    .add_custom_header("X-Custom-Header", "value");

let dial = Dial::new().add_sip(sip);
let response = VoiceResponse::new().dial_with(dial);
```

### Media Streaming

Stream audio to WebSocket endpoints:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::{Connect, Stream}, TwiML};

let stream = Stream::new()
    .url("wss://example.com/stream")
    .track("both_tracks")
    .status_callback("https://example.com/stream-status");

let connect = Connect::new().add_stream(stream);
let response = VoiceResponse::new().connect(connect);
```

### Payment Processing

Collect payment information securely:

```rust
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, voice::Pay, TwiML};

let pay = Pay::new()
    .charge_amount("19.99")
    .currency("USD")
    .payment_method("credit-card")
    .action("https://example.com/payment-complete")
    .status_callback("https://example.com/payment-status");

let response = VoiceResponse::new()
    .say("Please enter your payment information.")
    .pay(pay);
```

## FAQ

### Q: Does this library make HTTP requests to Twilio?
**A:** No, this library only generates TwiML XML. You need to serve the XML from your web server in response to Twilio's HTTP requests.

### Q: Can I use this with async/await?
**A:** Yes! The library is sync but works perfectly in async contexts. Just call `to_xml()` to generate the XML string.

### Q: How do I serve TwiML from my web server?
**A:** Use any Rust web framework (Actix, Axum, Rocket, etc.) and return the XML with `Content-Type: application/xml`:

```rust
// Example with Axum
use axum::{response::IntoResponse, http::header};
use twiml_rust::{VoiceResponse, TwiML};

async fn handle_call() -> impl IntoResponse {
    let twiml = VoiceResponse::new()
        .say("Hello from Rust!")
        .to_xml();

    (
        [(header::CONTENT_TYPE, "application/xml")],
        twiml
    )
}
```

### Q: Is this library production-ready?
**A:** Yes! The library is thoroughly tested with 167+ tests and follows Rust best practices. However, always validate your TwiML before deploying to production.

### Q: What's the difference between `say()` and `say_with()`?
**A:** `say()` is a convenience method for simple text. `say_with()` accepts a `Say` object with custom attributes and SSML elements.

### Q: Can I contribute new TwiML verbs?
**A:** Absolutely! Please open an issue first to discuss, then submit a PR with tests and documentation.
