Voice API callTo Parameter Only Initiates Call to Last Number in Array

[oxenprogrammer]

Issue Description

The Voice API currently specifies the CallTo parameter as an array of phone numbers in comma-separated string format, which can be passed to the options object as shown below:

 const options = {
      callFrom: "+256******", // Set your Africa's Talking phone number in international format
      callTo: ["+2567*******", "+256*******"], // Set the numbers you want to call to in a comma-separated list
    };

However, when initiating a call, it appears that the API is only dialing the last number in the array, rather than calling all the numbers as expected.

Expected Behavior

The expected behavior is for the callTo parameter to facilitate calling all the numbers listed in the array, ensuring that each number in the list receives a call.

Hi @oxenprogrammer

As indicated in the README, the callTo parameter should be a string and not an Array.

africastalking-node.js/README.md

Lines 201 to 205 in 611774a

	- `voice.call({ callFrom, callTo })`: Initiate a phone call
	- `callFrom`: Your Africa's Talking issued virtual phone number. `REQUIRED`
	- `callTo`: Comma-separated string of phone numbers to call. `REQUIRED`
	- `clientRequestId`: Additional information that can be used to tag the call in your callback URL.

I have tested and confirmed with the following sample code

import {username, apikey, callFrom} from './config.js'
import AT from 'africastalking'

const credentials = {
    apiKey: apikey,
    username: username
};
const callTo = '+2547XXXXXXXX,+2547YYYYYYYY';

const voice = AT(credentials).VOICE

voice
    .call({callFrom, callTo})
    .then((res) => res)

EDIT: My bad. I have confirmed and a comma separated array should also work as per the code

africastalking-node.js/lib/voice.js

Lines 21 to 27 in 611774a

	if(typeof callTo === 'string'){
	callTo = callTo.split(',');
	};
	if(!Array.isArray(callTo)){
	reject('"callTo" can only be an array of phoneNumbers, or a string of comma-separated phoneNumbers');
	};

@SamuelMwangiW I could push a fix but I also created an issue here on community Contribution Guidelines as a I couldn't get one.

@DaggieBlanqx kindly advise

@DaggieBlanqx is anything going to get done here?
Actually this whole thing doesn't work in version 0.6.2, it works on 0.5.5.
Is there a problem with the call API?
