PHP class for communicating with DA

[l0rdphi1]

Hey.

This is a small PHP class put together to help communicate with DirectAdmin. It is simple enough, and most anyone can make good use of it.

Current Version: v2.6
Last updated 2005-07-29

Download: php-source (http://files.directadmin.com/services/all/httpsocket/httpsocket.php) or tarball (http://files.directadmin.com/services/all/httpsocket/httpsocket.tar.gz)

Numerous implementation examples are located here (http://files.directadmin.com/services/all/httpsocket/examples/).

Pretty nifty, eh?

[loopforever]

An additional method is to simply use fopen(), file(), or getfilecontents() on the full URL. For example:



$diskUsage = getfilecontents("http://user:pass@your.server.com:2222/CMD_API_SHOW_USER_USAGE?user=$some_user_name")

echo "Disk Usage is: $diskUsage";


Just another way of doing this... :) Thanks for sharing your method, I might put it to good use...

That doesn't work with the new sessions sytem. And plus you have to parse_strthe results :)

How would you send your information to CMD_ACCOUNT_USER to create an account?
I made all the fields and such, but I'm unsure on how to send the info.

[l0rdphi1]

John said he'd be adding an API_ACCOUNT_USER soon, but right now I use:
$fsock->request("/CMD_ACCOUNT_USER?username=$client_sql[client_uname]&email=".strtolower($client_sql[client_email])
."&passwd=$client_sql[client_pword]&passwd2=$client_sql[client_pword]&domain=$client_sql[client_domain]"
."&bandwidth=".($client_sql[client_bandwidth]*1024)."&quota=$client_sql[client_storage]&uvdomains=ON&unsubdomains=ON"
."&unemails=ON&unemailf=ON&unemailml=ON&unemailr=ON&umysql=ON&udomainptr=ON&uftp=ON&aftp=ON&cgi=ON&ssl=ON"
."&suspend_at_limit=ON&skin=loopXv1&ip=$server_ip&add=Submit&action=create");

$client_sql is an array of the user's data.

$server_ip the server's shared IP.

*Note: This example uses the version 1.xx of this class; you need the wrapper (http://www.l0rdphi1.com/junk/httpsocket/httpgetsocket.phps) to continue in this fashion*

[l0rdphi1]

I edited my original post to include version 1.1 of the class.

I hadn't realized PHP's parse_str() function breaks when DA uses '&' characters in the returned string, and thus version 1.1 fixes this.

Additionally, I recently replied to this (http://www.directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=492#post2786) thread with the code I use to create DA accounts.

Enjoy,

Phi1.

[thoroughfare]

Hi,

Looks interesting, what can it do exactly? Is it just for the API commands?

Cheers,
Matt :)

[l0rdphi1]

Yeah, it's a simple tool for using DA's API. You could use it for other socket connections too though.

[thoroughfare]

Thanks :)

[Gadget]

I have one question, when this code is in actual working form, cant someone go "view source" and pull out your username and password for DA Login?

[l0rdphi1]

Not that I'm aware of. Even if view-source worked for me, shouldn't it only display the HTML source, and not any of the PHP?

And incase you fear someone actually getting the PHP source: you could always encrypt the password making it at least a little harder to figure out.

Phi1.

[l0rdphi1]

I just updated to 1.2 to fix some problems with url encoded arrays.

Enjoy :D

[lidios]

How about having visitors create mailboxes?

How do you implement this in the class?

<form action=/CMD_EMAIL_POP method=POST>
action=create
domain=domain.com
user=emailname (do not include @domain.com)
passwd=password
passwd2=password
create=Create

???

[l0rdphi1]

You won't need a class if you're going to send it via a form, but then again, I'm not sure that will even work. Try it, if you please.

I can modify the class to support POST, but I won't get time enough for that until this weekend.

Phi1.

[thoroughfare]

Just post the form to your own PHP script, which in turn parses the form and uses the DA communicating class to send the info on to DA ;)

Matt

[l0rdphi1]

The problem as I take it is that DA's CMD_EMAIL_POP API doesn't take GET data. As I said though, I can add support for POST this weekend :)

[FarCry]

this needs a little *bump* or a little bit of a sticky?

[l0rdphi1]

I'm currently in the process of rewriting this by the way. Will support both GET and POST, and fix a bug in the array_last_parsed method.

Feel free to sicky, if you like :)

[l0rdphi1]

Thanks for the sticky :D

We should see v2.0 today. Yay. ;)

[l0rdphi1]

Okay, 2.0 is up. There have been a lot of changes.

I put together a wrapper for old versions, so you don't have to recode anything. Check that out here (http://www.l0rdphi1.com/tools/httpsocket/httpgetsocket.phps).

Enjoy :)

[dryas]

Hello,

there is a big problem with the new html safe characters feature in version 1.203.

The "parse_str" PHP Function will not work together with the unicode html characters.... :-(

Benny

Linuworx.de

[DirectAdmin Support]

Ok, I'll have a look and make sure it works for 1.20.4

John

[dryas]

Hi,

sorry, but this feature is terrible. :( Nothing against html safe characters, but it blocks any php or perl script.

If you use &#[NUMBER], PHP didn't work, because it misinterprets the GET Variables. If you use %[NUMBER] Perl will make problems...

The %[NUMBER] works with PHP, but this is not HTML safe, isn't it? I must search and replace all the characters all the time...

Out of the frying pan into the fire... :(

Benny

[l0rdphi1]

Just escape = and & somehow, with some character sequence, or something. Nothing else is needed.

= -> |EQL|
& -> |AMP|

or something. :)

With the class I can easily convert these back to = and &.

[DirectAdmin Support]

Hello,

The proper version was released 4 days ago :) Just upgrade to 1.20.4. It uses the proper %?? instead of &#??.

http://www.directadmin.com/features.php?id=254

John

[l0rdphi1]

Ah, yes. For some reason I was under the impression this still wasn't fixed. Sorry :)

[lidios]

Hi,

Every time I try to use this, it tells me:

Could not excute your request



Details
You do not own that domain

Would anyone know why that is?

[l0rdphi1]

Check and make sure you're using the admin|{username} // {admin_password} login format

[lidios]

I found what was wrong!

In the examples, it showed the domain name to be inside {}, apparently, the {} are not needed. After I took those out, it worked fine.

This is what I'm talking about:


<?php

include 'httpsocket.php';

$sock = new HTTPSocket;

$sock->connect('comain.com',2222);
$sock->set_login('username,'************');

$sock->set_method('POST');

$sock->query('/CMD_EMAIL_POP',
array(
'action' => 'create',
'domain' => 'domain.com', //NOT '{domain.com}'
'user' => 'start',
'passwd' => 'pass',
'passwd2' => 'pass',
'create' => 'Create'
));
$result = $sock->fetch_body();

echo $result;

?>

[lidios]

I have a Question though...

How can you set it so that after, lets say, the POP account has been created, the default header (Log Out, Change Password, Help, buttons, and on the left, the DA Logo, and the tree) don't show up?

The links are broken anyways, which I guess is good cuz noone wants visitors to be able to do anything after creating their Email account...

[l0rdphi1]

Remember, any CMD_API* token will return a pretty result that this php class can parse. It's the other tokens that end up returning their in-DA HTML values.

[Marckus_e]

I have just tried to use the finished example of the CMD_DOMAIN script from l0rdphi1.

I change the login and password, servername and what the domain it should create.

Run the script and end up on the login page, nothing seems to be runned.

No errors?

Creating a user works fine but i want to be able to create a second domain with CMD_DOMAIN (which isn't in the API list).

/Best Regards
Marcus

[l0rdphi1]

Can you reply with the code you're using? (minus your password :))

[Marckus_e]

<?php

include 'httpsocket.php';

$sock = new HTTPSocket;
$sock->connect('ssl://ipadress',2222);

$sock->set_login("admin|web270","notforyou!");

$sock->set_method('POST');

$sock->query('/CMD_DOMAIN',
array(
'action' => 'create',
'domain' => 'kalletestar.se',
'ubandwidth' => 'unlimited',
'uquota' => 'unlimited',
'ssl' => 'OFF',
'cgi' => 'ON',
'php' => 'ON',
'create' => 'Create'
));
$result = $sock->fetch_body();

echo $result;

?>


There it is!

[l0rdphi1]

Hmmmm. You are using your 'admin' user password, correct? Besides the SSL connection (which people have been having trouble with), that looks like it should work without any problems. Are you sure your PHP configuration is set up to handle ssl:// includes in PHP? (I'd guess it is, though)

[Marckus_e]

Solved!

Used the wrong password.

One shall not work on mondays!

[guido]

OKe,

I'm new with this so bare with me :D

Oke I have a reseller account with a certain hostingcompany... Created a new user with a own domain, where I want to automatically, with the help of PHP, create new subdomains and emailaccounts.

for example:

'mydomain.com' is the account, with 'test' as username and 'rain' as password
And I want to create the next examples:

test.mydomain.com

and

test@mydomain.com


Well the email part worked with me, by using the virtual email commands : /CMD_API_POP

The username + password I used for that command were the username and password of the 'mydomain.com' account (created under 'Your Reseller').

But the listing and creation of subdomains, doesn't work with me. I will c&p an example where I was trying to print a list of already existing subdomains:



$sock = new HTTPSocket;
$sock->connect("<my IP>",<my Port>);
$sock->set_login("test","rain");$sock->query('/CMD_API_SUBDOMAINS', array('domain' => 'mydomain.com'));

$result = $sock->fetch_parsed_body();
print_r($result);




What am I doing wrong :D

[guido]

A little bit of reading explains a LOT :)

oke they are running 1.21.0 and the commands I try to use are implements in 1.21.2 -> figures...

So I'll just bug those guys, if the want to upgrade...

I'll be back :D

[guido]

Oke next question... I can do almost everything:

create subdomains
create databases
create emailboxes

and get lists of all the options above.

BUT is it also possible to create FTP accounts (under the subdomain)? I can't find anything about it in the API, but I've to admit, I'm a really bad reader as well as a writer :D

So is FTP control something I overlooked or just not present... and where can I request such a API extention ;) Because if I'm getting it right "l0rdphi1" is the PHP code master, but not the DA developer, that's John isn't it?

Greetz

[DirectAdmin Support]

Hello,

Anything you can do via webbrowser can be done via the API. The only difference is that you might not get a parseable result, but the command will be executed. Just load the desired page in your web browser, go "view source" and retrieve all form values for the command you want and apply them to your script.

John

[guido]

Cool, thenx you!

I will go and experiment :D

Greetz

[l0rdphi1]

I have updated the communication class to version 2.1, which includes support for DA's new skin login key system.

From within a skin, you may now use the following to login as the code-executing (or "current") user:
$Socket = new HTTPSocket;
$Socket->connect('127.0.0.1',2222);
$Socket->set_login($_SERVER['USER']);
// $_SERVER['USER'] will always contain the current user's name

$Socket->query('/CMD_API_SHOW_DOMAINS');
$r_ query_result = $Socket->fetch_parsed_body()

print_r($r_query_result);Remember, this only works within skins.

Enjoy. :)

[YouCMe]

Can you please fix the download links? :)

Tnxz! :D

[l0rdphi1]

Working for me. Give it another go.

[YouCMe]

hmm http://www.l0rdphi1.com/tools/httpsocket/httpsocket.tar.gz that link and the phps link give me a page cannot be displayed message :(
can you please mail me the .tar.gz at my support@youcme.nl email adres?

weird that i can't see the page :)
tnxz in advance ;)

Hi everybody,

somewhat new to PHP and I am wondering if anybody would be oppossed to showing me a complete example. How this api works with your clients hosting registration form. Or maybe just a clarification of what is really required to make this work.

After reading this thread here is what I think is supposed to be done, someone please let me know if this is correct:

[list=1]
I need to create my form which gathers the user information
The form action should be add_domain.php or whatever it is I am trying to do
make sure I include a call to the httpsocket.php from with in the form action script.
[/list=1]

Is it that simple?

I am not sure as I have seen a multitude of different things in the forums. For instance, what about this - (used by some to create new accounts):

http://www.directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=492#post2786 -

<?php

$obj->request("/CMD_API_ACCOUNT_USER?username=<username>&email=<email>&passwd=<password>"
."&passwd2=<password>&domain=<primary_domain>&bandwidth=<megs_bandwidth>"
."&quota=<megs_storage>&uvdomains=ON&unsubdomains=ON&unemails=ON&unemailf=ON"
."&unemailml=ON&unemailr=ON&umysql=ON&udomainptr=ON&uftp=ON&aftp=ON&cgi=ON&ssl=ON"
."&suspend_at_limit=ON&skin=<skin>&ip=<server_ip>&add=Submit&action=create");

$result = $obj->array_last_parsed();

if ($result[error]) {

echo "Woo. There was an error.<p>$result[details]";

exit;
}

echo $result[text];

?>

How does all this tie together? And what about the wrapper he mentions at the bottom of the post?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
3DPN

[ctnchris]

is it possible to log someone in using this by their e-mail name and pass for that? I have a staff only section on my irc net page im working on and it would be easier if they could just have one pass for everything, and that way I wouldnt have to make a whole new system.

[thoroughfare]

The class doesn't support HTTPS does it?

Yes, actually it does. PHP's "https" is ssl:// :)

$socket = new HTTPSocket;
$socket->connect('ssl://yourserver',2222);

$socket->method('POST'); // this is an optional call; default is GET
$socket->query("/CMD_API_SHOW_USERS",array( 'user' => 'admin' ));

if ($socket->fetch_parsed_body())
{
print_r($socket->fetch_parsed_body());
}

I don't think you can login to DA's API via an email address, but you may be able to at least verify they've got the right email password using PHP's IMAP functions.

Is it that simple? I think it is indeed that simple. Here's add_domain.php for you: http://www.l0rdphi1.com/tools/httpsocket/examples/example.add_domain.phps

Hi i'm trying to get the class running


but i only get empty arrays till now



<?php

include "httpsocket.php";

$sock = new HTTPSocket;
$sock->connect('myserverip',2222);

$sock->set_login("admin","mypass");

$sock->query('/CMD_API_SHOW_USER_USAGE&user=usernameofaccount');
$result = $sock->fetch_body();

print_r(array_values($result));


?>

i also tryed this


<?
include 'httpsocket.php';

$sock = new HTTPSocket;

$sock->connect('ssl://myipnumber,'2222');
$sock->set_login('admin','mypasswd');

$sock->query('/CMD_API_SHOW_USER_USAGE?user=ausername');
$result = $sock->fetch_body();


echo $result;

?>

[l0rdphi1]

Hello,

Is your server running over SSL or not? Only use ssl:// when running over SSL.


$sock->query('/CMD_API_SHOW_USER_USAGE&user=usernameofaccount');That should be:
$sock->query('/CMD_API_SHOW_USER_USAGE','user=usernameofaccount');
Good luck, Phi1. :)

[nbhosting]

<?

include 'httpsocket.php';

$sock = new HTTPSocket;

$sock->connect('ssl://217.170.21.24',2222);
$sock->set_login('admin','myadminpass');

$sock->query('/CMD_API_SHOW_USER_USAGE','user=project14');
$result = $sock->fetch_result();

echo $result;

?>


still only get blank pages
i got ssl activated on the domain i'm working on
i also tryed to disable ssl and the use only the ipnummer

no succes there also

[l0rdphi1]

The question is: Is DirectAdmin running over SSL?

If it is, use ssl://

If it is not, just put the IP :)

Phi1.

[nbhosting]

i tryed both ways

both return me an empty array

[l0rdphi1]

And the proper value IS returned from:

https://217.170.21.24:2222/CMD_API_SHOW_USER_USAGE?user=project14

?

Phi1.

[nbhosting]

thatway i get promted for login and my ssl warning after that i get the right output

[l0rdphi1]

You do have OpenSSL complied into _PHP_, yes? That's needed to make ssl:// queries.

Phi1.

[nbhosting]

i will check

How to check exists user "test" or no?

[l0rdphi1]

RosT,

You can do the following:[list=1] login through the API as test's owner grab the array returned by CMD_API_SHOW_USERS use in_array (http://php.net/in_array) to test if test exists within the above array[/list=1]

An how to get list of all domains in the directadmin database? Not for one user - for all.

[jmstacey]

I don't see any specific comand for this in the api manual.

So what you can do is get the list of all users, store it as an array. Then have it collect the domains that each owner has and display them. Probably using foreach (http://us4.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.foreach.php)

[rushost]

for exp. I have 2 DA servers
and one database of users (logins, domains and so on)

user on 1 server created mydomain.com

Is it possible by using your php-class disallow user on second server create same domain name? ....DA allow because it is not using same DNS :(

[l0rdphi1]

This PHP class can only communicate with DA's API: www.directadmin.com/api.html

Can't do what's not there :)

[jmstacey]

If you are adding domains through a custom script that you made and not through Da then it would be possible, just not automatically through the api.

You would have to have your script gather a domain list from both servers and then compare them to the domain trying to be created and if there are any matches fail because of a duplicate.

[Avenueduweb]

Hello,

It's very good and very easy to install this system. But i've got a little problem, my users register an account, automatically the user is create in directadmin but he is suspended, when the user pay their account with paypal, the account become "unsuspended" automatically, no problem for that. But, i want to send a "welcome message" after unsuspend an account, how I do that ? Thanks. Bye.

Hi

I'm struggling to create a database using the API.

I can get a list of existing databases for the user's account, I can create POP mail boxes (this proves my socket and login work correctly) BUT every time I try to create a database i get


Program Error
Details: A segmentation fault has occurred

If I set it up manually with the same name/user/password it works.

If I attempt to create it when one already exists, it tells me it can't because my quota has been reached (i have max 1 db for this account type).

I have tried both /CMD_DB and /CMD_API_DATABASES

Here's the code for my latest attempt:
<?php

include 'httpsocket.php';

$sock = new HTTPSocket;

$sock->connect('account ip address',2222);

$sock->set_login("bloggs","******");

$sock->set_method('POST');

$mydata = array(
'action' => 'create',
'name' => 'db',
'user' => 'usr',
'passwd' => '******');

$sock->query('/CMD_API_DATABASES',$mydata);

$result = $sock->fetch_body();

echo $result;

First I am no expert but I believe you need to use /CMD_API_DATABASES to get this done.

Ooops - that was just a typo from my test to create POP boxes instead! [ I will now edit my original post ].

But thanks anyway for a quick response.

[resolveit]

Can you post the code that gives you the segment fault. From your post I read that when you try to create a database you get a segment fault, is this correct? Or do you get the segment fault when you try to create POP accounts?

Kind Regards,

If you read the API Documentation it says that you should use /CMD_DATABASES or /CMD_API_DATABASES and not /CMD_DB.

Let me know if this works...

[mike_p]

Thanks but that doesn't seem to give any improvement.

Could someone who has succeeded please post their code?
(Ive ended up trying so many different ways my heads now spinning!)

Even the password is as-is - but will be changed in a few minutes time.

Thanks for any further help.

There is also no mention of "domain" or "create" fields in the API Interface for databases.

Ill work on it tonight and post some code later tonight.

There is also no mention of "domain" or "create" fields in the API Interface for databases.
They're commented out: when uing the /CMD_DB call they are required. By using the CMD_DB I was able to get the list of existing databases.

Thanks for sticking with it!

Thanks - thats very kind of you.

[resolveit]

Well, I can report that I have it working. I want to complete a couple more API commands and will then release the interface, including forms and calls to the API. I will do this tonight so everybody can use it as they see fit.

Kind Regards,
Onno Vrijburg

[mike_p]

Thanks

[resolveit]

Here is what I have so far. I am making this available as open source and would appreciate it if other people woud contribute by building some of the classes or by fixing bugs in the code.

I am fully aware that the code is not 100% and some results are not shown (could use help on this) but at least most of the completed classes work well.


Content of the ZIP file
/code - classes for the API
/config - Configuration file (admin userID, password ...)
/forms - Forms for entering data (links 1-1 to API classes)
/protocol - httpsocket Class


Kind Regards,
Onno Vrijburg

[l0rdphi1]

Excellent package you have there, Onno. Your open-source package will be a HUGE help to those who are just getting started with DA's API.

Cheers! :)

[mike_p]

1/ Thanks for that Onno.

Most functions seem to work for me.... except it still refuses to create a database! Your function reports that it worked OK - when it doesn't!

I get the feeling there is a bug in my system somewhere.

----------------------------------------
2/There are a couple of changes I would suggest to improve the output of some of the functions
eg for

da_list_accounts.php

i would replace

echo $result;

with

foreach ($result['list'] as $key => $value) {
echo "$key : $value<br />\n";
}

[toothbrush]

Hi there.

I'm having the same problem as mike_p, and I'm also using the exact same code that's been posted here (which is correct according to the API definitions here on da.com).

If anyone has any more suggestions they'd be very welcome.

edit: I'm also on DA 1.23

Paul van der Walt

[resolveit]

This seems to be a problem in DA 1.23. I have just tried it on a box running DA 1.22 and it works, on another box running DA 1.23 it does not work.

DASupport can you confirm that this is a problem in DA 1.23? Or help us solve the problem.

Kind Regards,
Onno Vrijburg

[mike_p]

I had the problem before I upgraded to v1.23 (as well as after!).

Does the API use the same system to connect to the database as the main DirectAdmin app? I'm wondering whether it may be a MySQL client library version issue.

i.e. the mysql_connect function is deprecated in later versions
and mysql_real_connect function takes different parameters depending on the version.

[toothbrush]

Not sure, could be. Did minimal research on the 'segmentation fault' error, found this bugreport: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=25400, that doesn't seem to be useful except that it's MySQL's fault. The version mentioned there is 4.0.14, I have version 4.0.16.

I find it very strange, I'm still getting that error even though I'm trying to fake a POST command which is essentially identical to the one used in the DA control panel (i.e. not using the API). Unfortunately I don't have any ideas.

[mike_p]

Onno -

If you have a box on which it works and one where it doesn't, could you please compare the mysql client libraries in use on each?

Perhaps there is a conflict depending on whether you use the
mysql-shared-compat or the mysql-shared libraries.
On my server I've got the shared-compat libraries. (MySQL-shared-compat-4.0.16)

[toothbrush]

Hi. I had a slight problem with the CMD_API_SHOW_USER_DOMAINS api. The problem is this: the api definition says that the return will be in the form of Array(domain.com,domain1.com) etc, and this is true when I open http://adminuser:adminpass@mydomain.com:2222/CMD_API_SHOW_USER_DOMAINS?user=myuser. I then get the following:


userdomain.com=14.6848:unlimited:1.86753:4.5522:0:no:unlimited:ON:ON:ON:

The funny thing is that when I use the http socket library to access the api the same is returned, but with the format "userdomain_com" as the variable name in the array. Very strange. So for example this code:


$listSocket = new HTTPSocket;

$listSocket->connect($siteurl,$siteport);
$listSocket->set_login($adminusername,$adminpassword);

$listSocket->query('/CMD_API_SHOW_USER_DOMAINS',array('user'=>'myuser'));

$listresult = $listSocket->fetch_parsed_body();
print_r($listresult);

...I get the following output:


Array
(
[userdomain_com] => 14.3521:unlimited:1.86654:4.48669:0:no:unlimited:ON:ON:ON:
)

Does anyone have any idea why this is? I have implemented a workaround but would still like to know the reason.

Thanks,

[l0rdphi1]

I believe PHP's parse_str (http://php.net/parse_str) function replaces periods with underscores.

PHP.net:
Note that variables cannot contain a DOT (.) in PHP. So, DOT will be replaced by underscore. e.g. variables like "variable.something" will be converted into "variable_something".

Great, a logical explanation :)

[ctnchris]

I have
<?php

include 'httpsocket.php';

$sock = new HTTPSocket;

$sock->connect('p44.org',2222);
$sock->set_login('admin','passs');

$sock->query('/CMD_API_SHOW_ALL_USERS');
$result = $sock->fetch_parsed_body();

foreach ($result as $user) {
echo "$user <br />";
}

?> and I know I screwed up something, anyone with a spare second wanna help? i want to list all users without the array crap showing.

[toothbrush]

...
foreach ($result as $user) {
echo "$user <br />";
}
...

I have a feeling the foreach needs the following changes:


foreach ($result['list'] as $key => $user) {
echo "$user <br />";
}

Give that a try and tell me what happens :) HTH

[fusionictnl]

Problem:

Authentication doesn't work when having special characters like:

< or + or / or -

A lot of passwords on my server have those characters and is accepted by DA.

But when using the DA Class it isn't working at all. Somehow DA or the API translates it the wrong way.

Please can someone verify this by just using a password with a < or a + or something or both :P

Thx!

[l0rdphi1]

Hello,

Looking at my source, passwords as passed to DA like this:
$array_headers['Authorization'] = 'Basic '.base64_encode("$this->remote_uname:$this->remote_passwd");

That's a pretty standard format, so I'm not sure where the problem is. Perhaps this is a problem with DA? Or you're doing something silly?

I'd confirm right now if I wasn't so busy :(

Phi1.

[fusionictnl]

I have tested it with curl_exec and it goes exactly the same way wrong.

Edit: I have changed the password without those characters and it goes great!

So there's definitly something wrong with the encoding procedure. Or DA's way of translating the passwords out of the headers!

Hello,

Looking at this (http://www.l0rdphi1.com/tools/httpsocket/examples/example.suspend_user.phps), the location member of your $tab array should be set to CMD_SELECT_USERS:
'location' => 'CMD_SELECT_USERS',
Good luck.

Phi1.

[noose]

With your fix output is ( location => 'CMD_SELECT_USERS' ):

Cannot Execute Command



Details

Empty post



with location => '/CMD_SELECT_USERS' output is:

Error: document not found

[l0rdphi1]

Also, the select key should be select0 in $tab.

Phi1.

[noose]

i try select and select0.... nothing :(

[l0rdphi1]

Oh, here we go; CMD_SELECT_USERS is a POST-only form.

You need a
$da->set_method('POST'); somewhere before the query. :)

[noose]

still nothing :(

Empty post

[l0rdphi1]

Post everything you got now. :)

Phi1.

[noose]

http://thc.net.pl/suspend.phps <- script
http://thc.net.pl/error.txt <- output

[l0rdphi1]

That looks like it should work now.

One last posibility: Try adding this somewhere before the query:
$da->doFollowLocationHeader = FALSE;
Phi1.

[noose]

still nothing :( :( :( How to do this ?? :(

[fusionictnl]

Since update of latest DA 1.23.1 it isn't working anymore :s None of the plugins :s

Getting a bit tired about Da's way of updating things!

So what shoud I do ? I have the newst version of DA....

[fusionictnl]

Warning: fsockopen(): no SSL support in this build in /usr/local/directadmin/plugins/billing/admin/include/da.api on line 161

It is compiled with php (configure_ap2_php)

Recompiled it Again and it worked. Maybe this should be standard, with-openssl option. (don't know why it didn't take it the first time when upgrading to apache 2)

[noose]

I don't understand :( could U write it in a simpler way ? Plz.... :P

[fusionictnl]

Add:

--with-openssl \

to the /usr/local/directadmin/customapache/configure.php_ap2

and do a build ./build php_ap2

[l0rdphi1]

--with-openssl IS supposed to be standard. Not sure what happened with this release. :(

[noose]

it isn't this :(

[fusionictnl]

It never was, the same for IMAP. Once you compiled php again after first install you don't have these functions anymore!

[l0rdphi1]

Hello,

I assume you mean change file permissions of a file on a remote server? If so, then no; this class can't do that.

Phi1.

[jmstacey]

You can chmod files through the DirectAdmin filemanager, but you can not do it through the DA api. There is no point to. It should work within your php scripts as long as its configured correctly and you have safemode off.

[resolveit]

Yeah I know there shouldnt be a problem but there is, so I looked for a differnet way to do it.

I only asked because I saw you could do it through the DirectAdmin filemanager and hoped the api would be able to do it too.

Anyways, thanks for the help.


Using this HTTP class you can duplicate anything in DA, just figure out the form variables and the command line + userid & password and you'll be able to set it up.

I think you'll find that this would become totally unmanagable when you have a lot of files in the directories.

Hi,

i have this as result:

http://www.mywebspace.nl/index.php

i use this: http://www.l0rdphi1.com/tools/httpsocket/httpsocket.phps
as httpsocket.php

and this:
http://www.l0rdphi1.com/tools/httpsocket/examples/example.show_all_users.phps
as index.php

What is here wrong?

Thnx

[jmstacey]

You can not use the CMD_SHOW_ALL_USERS command unless you have sufficient permissions to do so, such as an admin account. Make sure that your script is logging in as the admin.

[louis]

But i am the admin

[jmstacey]

What happens if you attempt to run that command in DA but not through your script
i.e. http://yourdomain.com:2222/CMD_SHOW......

[louis]

It works now..

But i have another problem:(



<?php

include 'httpsocket.php';

$sock->set_login('admin','pass');

$sock->query('/CMD_API_SHOW_USER_USAGE?user=tester');
$result = $sock->fetch_parsed_body();

print_r($result);

?>


How get i only the bandwidth in an variable?
$Bandwidth = "the bandwidth that the users use";

Thnx

[FarCry]

Try

$result['bandwidth']

[louis]

Yeah it works :D Thnx guys

Hi all!
How I can show result (such as
Processor Name
Processor Speed (MHz)
System Uptime and others) CMD_SYSTEM_INFO at my script.
:o

[chase]

Hi guys,

Im trying to write something with your httpsocket that makes it possible to add email users to DA from a flat file. Saves me a lot of work and ofcourse the rest of the world.

The problem is that only the last user is added in DA. Possible due to the socket is open. I have tried something but did not manage to get it working.

Here is how it works. A user.txt is used to put all the names in. It reads in the new_users array. A password is generated by an pass generator(password.php).
When the script is executed the names and password are been listed. So far so good. Only the last user is the list will be added to DA. How can I close the stream ? In otherwords how can I close the connection to DA and open again when the next user in the array is loaded. Or you maybe have an other solution for this problem.

I hope you have time to answer this maybe easy question.

Regards,
Chase


PS: here is the code

<?

include 'httpsocket.php';
include 'password.php';


// Enter the domain name
$domain = "mydomain.net";

// Set quota for mailbox for all users. Size is in MB
$quota = "30";

// Enter the length of the password
$passlen = 6;

$new_users = file ("users.txt");
$number_of_users = count($new_users);
if ($number_of_users == 0){
echo "Enter users into the users.txt file";
exit;}

for ($i=0; $i<$number_of_users; $i++){
$user=$new_users[$i];
echo $user." ";
$password = generatePassword($passlen);
echo $password."<BR>";

$sock = new HTTPSocket;
$sock->connect('myIP',2222);
$sock->set_login('me','myselfandI');
$sock->set_method('GET');

$sock->query('/CMD_API_POP',

array(
'action' => 'create',
'domain' => $domain,
'user' => $user,
'passwd' => $password,
'quota' => $quota

));
$result = $sock->fetch_parsed_body();
// Now Close the connection
}


?>

try this:



$sock = new HTTPSocket;
$sock->connect('myIP',2222);
$sock->set_login('me','myselfandI');
$sock->set_method('GET');



for ($i=0; $i<$number_of_users; $i++){
$user=$new_users[$i];
echo $user." ";
$password = generatePassword($passlen);

'action' => 'create',
'domain' => $domain,
'user' => $user,
'passwd' => $password,
'quota' => $quota
));
$result = $sock->fetch_parsed_body();
}
it may be work! A don't try this!

[chase]

Sorry Kolobok,

thatz already what I have tried before. Ain't gonna work. Build the stream and then parse.

I need to shutdown the stream and rebuild when it goes through the loop.

socket_close($sock);
or socket_close($socket);

stream_set_blocking() would do the trick if knew the streams name.

Don't know the name of that stream.

Maybe you can help me with that.

First thought was im going to quick for the DA and build in a sleep, but that is not the problem. Parsing a array doesn't like the httpsocket.php either.

I will dig deeper tommorow....would be nice to add 100 users at once,

Greetz,
Chase

[kolobok]

chase try this function:


/**
* Close socket
*/
function close_socket() {
return $this->socket_close();
}

(you must add this function in you httpsocket.php)
and use it function on you script:


$result = $sock->close_socket();

use urldecode :) '%2' is a slash, if you'd put it in the URL, apache might think that you are requesting a file in another map, so the query string (everything behind ?, exactly the response from the class you are getting) is encoded.

You should try to replace

, that might work.

Is it possible to create/remove user and reseller packages using the DA API??

-Thanks in advance!

[l0rdphi1]

@kolobok: if PHP is compliled with openssl you could also do this:

$sock = new httpsocket();
$sock->connect("ssl://IP",2222);
$sock->query("/PAGE");

@WildFyre: Yes, that is possible. However, I'm not sure if there are CMD_API functions to do that. You may need to fake POST data to DA's GUI.

Good luck.

with it class you can simple create own billing for auto accept payments create / delete / suspend users

Can someone figure out why this doesnt works?

I want to retrieve all the server stats...

Thnx!!!

(using 2.6 by the way.)

Also I would like to know if there is an possibility to create a package from a API command....

Hello,
I'm trying to create a billing system, but i'm having a problem.
When the system try to suspend and already suspended user. DA turns it UNsuspended...

[jmstacey]

You should get the status of the user first and then suspend or unsuspend if needed.

[rocketcity]

Hello,

I have never use an API before and know very little about what to do. I have read through this thread but am some what confused on what to do. I have a customer with 750+ email accounts that need to put on the server and have a couple of questions.

I have copied the httpsocket.php file to the server. What I am not sure about is:

1) What is the best way to create a file with this many email addresses? As I do not want to add them 1 by 1.

2) How do I send the cmd_api_pop file to the server. Do I upload the file to the server and then call it from a browser or do I run this from shell or is there some other way of doing it?

Thanks in advance for the help.

[rocketcity]

Hello, Anybody?

[resolveit]

The simple answer is you write a program to call the API.

[r3n3gad3]

anyone has an answer to my question? :confused:

Onno actually did answer you.

If you want to know how to be a PHP programmer, I'm afraid that's well beyond the scope of this forum.

I want an automatic list of all available domains what are on my servers. Or a list of domains owned by a couple of users.

(want to make an dropdown menu with sites i made automaticly..)

How to do this?

[jmstacey]

You'll have to collect a list of all users on the server, or just selected users, then foreach user retrieve the domain list and add them to a master array.

[resolveit]

or you could simply read the /etc/virtual/domains file for a complete list of domain names on the server.

[HostPerfect]

How can i read that? Can someone give an example?

[nobaloney]

$ cat /etc/virtual/domains

Jeff

[HostPerfect]

No, i mean with php :rolleyes:

[jmstacey]

As in you want code?

Your lucky I'm in a programming mood today ;)

This is the gist of it:


foreach (file('/etc/virtual/domains') as $domain)
{
echo $domain;
}

Since DA is reporting success but the account isn't actually created it could be a bug. Make sure you're running the latest version of DirectAdmin and if that doesn't solve the problem, toss an email to support.

Of course I use newest version.

Hi Guys... Excellent class file... got it working with the code i will post below. I have a few things I need to ask tho...

Want I want is a user to register on the site, this will then create them a folder on my server, and create an FTP account which sets them as a user - so they can only access the folder they created (using their chosen username)....

THe problem is that I cannot find if its possible to set their permissions etc... I dont want them to create new folders etc or upload more than ONE file. Do you think its possible to do this??

heres what I have working....

To specify those kind of limits on a sub-domain I think you will need to create the sub-domain as a regular domain. That is, add sub1.domain.com as a new domain instead of a sub-domain on domain.com. Then you can just use the regular domain APIs.

Hopefully that helps.

Cheers!

[hostpc.com]

Thanks for the confirmation phil.... we'll still need to manually modify DNS for domain.com tho (if the subs are spread over multiple servers) correct?

[nobaloney]

Unless the DNS for the subdomains are on the same server as the main domain, you need to create NS records for both sub.example.com and for www.sub.example.com (unless you don't want it to work) pointing to the two nameservers on your DA server hosting the subdomain.

Hello, in httpsocket.php, there is a line where we specify the login username and password:

$sock->set_login("admin|{username}","{admin_password}");

What should be the value here if i were to make a plugin that is accessed at user level ? if it should be the client's login id and his password, how do i automatically capture this password ?

Please help, thanks!

[Rewt]

I had originally posted this in support, then realized it needs to go here.

I need something that will create a domain alias on the fly -- using the httpsocket.php class I think would be the way to do it.

Basically, the domain foo.com already exists. When the user signs up, they are inputting their domain name, bar.com, in a form field. I need to know where to look to make the backend magic happen.

It seems possible: http://www.directadmin.com/features.php?id=583
(haven't tried it myself though)

[2-bizzy]

I will try this...
Thnx!

[2-bizzy]

Now, I have this script:



function DACreatePackage($da_packagename,$da_bandwith,$da_quota,$da_vdomains,$da_nemails) {
$socket = new HTTPSocket;

$socket->connect($c_da_ip,2222);
$socket->set_login($c_da_username,$c_da_password);

$socket->set_method('POST');
if($da_nemails == "0") {
$socket->query('/CMD_API_MANAGE_USER_PACKAGES',
array(
'packagename' => $da_packagename,
'bandwith' => $da_bandwith,
'quota' => $da_quota,
'vdomains' => $da_vdomains,
'nsubdomainschecked' => 'checked',
'nemailschecked' => 'checked',
'nemailfchecked' => 'checked',
'nemailmlchecked' => 'checked',
'nemailrchecked' => 'checked',
'mysqlchecked' => 'checked',
'domainptr' => '5',
'ftpchecked' => 'checked',
'aftpchecked' => '',
'cgichecked' => 'checked',
'sslchecked' => 'checked',
'sshchecked' => '',
'dnscontrolchecked' => 'checked',
'suspendatlimitchecked' => 'checked',
'add' => 'Save'
));}
$result = $socket->fetch_body();
return $result;
}

If I run this script the error result is 0, but there's no package created in DA.
What's wrong with this script?

[Aspegic]

Don't you need to have something like
global $c_da_ip, $c_da_username, $c_da_password;
in there somewhere?

[2-bizzy]

They were already load from the database like this:



$settings = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM settings");
$s = mysql_fetch_assoc($settings);

$c_da_username = $s["c_da_username"];
$c_da_password = $s["c_da_password"];
$c_da_ip = $s["c_da_ip"];


So that's not the problem.

[Aspegic]

That's not what I mean. It's not a matter of whether or not these variables have valid values or not. What I'm referring to is the 'scope' of these three variables. You have to declare them 'global' inside 'DACreatePackage', otherwise they won't be 'known' inside that function.

PHP Variable scope: http://us2.php.net/variables.scope

[2-bizzy]

Now I have this:


function DACreatePackage($da_packagename,$da_bandwith,$da_quota,$da_vdomains,$da_nemails,$da_ip,$da_username,$da_password)

It's working!
Thnx!

[Aspegic]

That's another way of getting those variables in there ;)

My question is : Using the "Create User" script given to us by the good guys of DA, how can i get the output info returned to me to print, instead of the whole web page. I need to know this as im including pages, and this messes things up

Cheers people ;)

[2-bizzy]

You can use the $result

sample:

echo $result['error'];

I've got also a problem. I cant create resellers (the resellers will not be created in DA) with the following script:



//DirectAdmin create reseller
function DACreateReseller($da_user,$da_email,$da_password,$da_domein,$da_package,$da_ipadres,$da_ip,$da_username,$da_password) {
//Connectie opzetten
$socket = new HTTPSocket;

//Inloggen
$socket->connect($da_ip,2222);
$socket->set_login($da_username,$da_password);

$socket->set_method('POST');

$socket->query('/CMD_API_ACCOUNT_RESELLER',
array(
'action' => 'create',
'username' => $da_user, // The User's username. 4-8 characters, alphanumeric
'email' => $da_email, // A valid email address
'passwd' => $da_password, // The User's password. 5+ characters, ascii
'passwd2' => $da_password, // Password double check. 5+ characters, ascii
'domain' => $da_domein, // A valid domain name in the form: domain.com
'package' => $da_package, // One of the User packages created by the Reseller
'ip' => $da_ipadres, // One of the ips which is available for user creation. Only free or shared ips are allowed.
'notify' => 'no', // yes or no. If yes, an email will be sent to email
'add' => 'Submit' //Submit
));
$result = $socket->fetch_body();
return $result;
}


What's wrong in this script?

If i create an user with the api, i can't choose if spamassasin is enabled? Also suspend at limit, cron jobs and system info are off..
I want to choose if they are on?

How to fix that?

[Scr33x0r]

Hey, im new here :)

I'm not using your class, its just to much overkill for me and i rather write my own functions. However I do got some API questions.

Customers can order more than one domain with a package, so I need to create a domainpointer by api after i add the package.

The package with the standard domain is no problem, however, when I'm trying to add the domainpointer it says:


error=1&text=Could not excute your request&details=You do not own that domain

The url/api im using:

"CMD_API_DOMAIN_POINTER?domain=".$huidige."&action=add&from=".$nieuwe."alias=yes";

Where $huidige is the domain that comes with tha package and the $nieuwe is the domain that should be add as a domainpointer.

So is this possible to do with admin login or should i use user login?

[kencox]

Would you happen to have a post script written to add
Resellers?
An then another for resellers to add users?

[DirectAdmin Support]

change:
$Socket->set_login($_SERVER['USER']);to:
$Socket->set_login("|USERNAME|");As this is DA, not apache, so the $_SERVER array isn't filled (I don't think)

John

[redesb]

Thanks for the reply John,

Same wrong result, I have proven with "|USERNAME|", "$_SERVER['REMOTE_USER']", "$_SERVER['USER']", without 'set_login', changing the API call, with GET, with POST,... I don't know that to prove more.

All the times the same result:

Array ( [Array] => )

One array with 4 void elements and 401 http code, I am beginning to suspect that the class 'HTTPSocket' don't work from within of skin or that 'DA' prevents that it works.

The only way to get the result is including the 'password' field in 'set_login', but this is not a solution when you wish to add some new feature to the skin.

Somebody has been able to extract some result from within of any skin, calling any function of the API without password field in 'set_login'?

Can you post any working example?

[redesb]

After some more tests, I found the problem. The script run without password but only in one new folder not in 'filemanager' folder.

John, is there any restriction in the 'filemanager' folder that prevent the API call run?

[DirectAdmin Support]

Yes, the filemanager is chrooted before the skins are processed. This means that when you access /usr/local/bin/php, the chroot makes it /home/username/usr/local/bin/php.

[Lem0nHead]

I found this intermitent problem on version 2.4 and upgraded to 2.6, but it still happens

I couldn't track when it happens, but it's happening pretty often (ie, 20% of times I try to use the API, it happens for around 10~15 minutes and then stops)

I tracked this down to line 174 (v2.6):
$socket = @fsockopen( $this->remote_host, $this->remote_port, $sock_errno, $sock_errstr, 10 );

debugging it I got:
$this->remote_host = "ssl://127.0.0.1"
$this->remote_port = 2222

I just get this error:

Server Error
The following error occurred:

[code=SERVER_RESPONSE_CLOSE] The server closed the connection while reading the response. Contact your system administrator.
Please contact the administrator.

so this must be crashing very hard for some reason...
I though it may not recognize "ssl://", but it does (otherwise, why would it work many times and just not a few?)

I also tried telnet 127.0.0.1 2222 and got with no problems

NOTHING after this 174 line is executed
this fsockopen function is just crashing everything

any hints?

[fwpeter]

It works fine with localhost: $sock->connect('ssl://localhost', 2222);

If you don't want to use localhost check your firewall settings and make sure it passes port 2222 and 443.

A suggestion for the next version: when PHP error reporting is set to E_ALL (as on my server) line number 306 throws a warning. I solved this by changing the line
// from:
if ($headers['location'])

// to:
if (!empty($headers['location'])) Hope this is helpful.
Thanks again

Hi guys,

I am using CMD_API_VERIFY_PASSWORD to check against user password without a problem.

Now I have new clients who have purchased a vps from us, and I want to check against the vps admin password, but I am not getting the desired results.



$sock = new HTTPSocket;
$sock->connect($serverip,2222);

$sock->set_login("admin",$dapassword);

$sock->set_method('POST');

$sock->query('/CMD_API_VERIFY_PASSWORD',
array(
'user' => $loginname,
'passwd' => $_SESSION['clave']
));
$result = $sock->fetch_body();


The result I get is blank (unset)

I am using his vps ip in serverip, and his admin password in $dapassword.

$loginname = "admin"

and $_SESSION['clave'] = same admin password

My thought process is

1- Login as admin
2- Verify against amin (user) password.

The only reason I can think of for it not working is becuase admin is not owner of admin user (becuase they are at the same level??)

Does this make any sense to anyone ?

Thanks !

how can I get DA answer, like that:


Success Returns error=0&text=text&details=details
Failure Returns error=1&text=text&details=details

[Rbv]

How can I check if the username exist, before opening a new accout ?

RosT,

You can do the following:[list=1] login through the API as test's owner grab the array returned by CMD_API_SHOW_USERS use in_array (http://php.net/in_array) to test if test exists within the above array[/list=1]

How can I grab the array ?

Hello guys,

I use the API communication class without any problems on a few servers, but now that I have a new server in spain, which is a debian box with DA 1.281 , it is not responding to my API commands.

For example, when I check for password match :

$sock->query('/CMD_API_VERIFY_PASSWORD',
array(
'user' => $_SESSION['usernm'],
'passwd' => $_SESSION['userpw']
));

I always get "valid=0" as a response code, when usually I should be getting "valid=1"

Is there a certain port that needs to be open in order for the commands to work?

Thanks !

[cyberneticos]

Sorry,

I am actually getting no response. I wish I was getting valid=0, cuase that would mean I am connecting at least.

But I get nothing, null.


port 2222 is open. I checked with nmap..

Any ideas ?

It works great with my other servers,. and the admin password is that same.

[cyberneticos]

Ok,

I've tested other API commands and they are working correctly, so I am connecting. But for some reason CMD_API_VERIFY_PASSWORD does not want to give me a result, nor error nor valid result,... nothing. Just an empty array.

My OS is Debian,. incase that helps.

[cyberneticos]

Ok,

I am getting these entries in my directadmin error log:



2006:12:22-11:25:16: Socket write error: fd is connected to a pipe or socket whose reading end is closed. When this happens the writing process will also receive a SIG_PIPE signal. (Thus, the write return value is seen only if the program catches, blocks or ignores this signal.)
2006:12:22-11:25:16: Error reading from 83.59.69.134:


83.59.69.134 is my IP at the moment.

Anyone ?

[cyberneticos]

Nevermind guys,..

The server from where my script was being launched, was using APF firewall. We added the server's IP to the /etc/apf/allow_hosts.rules file and it works :)

BUT ONLY using GET

Does not work using post,......

Any risk of using GET at this point ?

Thanks

If you have questions I can help you

Hello, just for say, i had modify PHP class because i have this error in apache log:
[Wed Jan 24 02:00:09 2007] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Notice: Undefined index: location in xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\httpsocket.php on line 306

so for resolve this i make this change:
line 306:
if (isset($headers['location']))
{
$this->redirectURL = $headers['location'];
$this->query($headers['location']);
}

modify by:
if (isset($headers['location']))
{
if ($headers['location'])
{
$this->redirectURL = $headers['location'];
$this->query($headers['location']);
}
}

and now, no error logs ;)
good luck and thanks for this class :D

$sock->set_method('POST');

$sock->query('/CMD_API_CHANGE_INFO',

Here is what I have so far. I am making this available as open source and would appreciate it if other people woud contribute by building some of the classes or by fixing bugs in the code.

I am fully aware that the code is not 100% and some results are not shown (could use help on this) but at least most of the completed classes work well.


Content of the ZIP file
/code - classes for the API
/config - Configuration file (admin userID, password ...)
/forms - Forms for entering data (links 1-1 to API classes)
/protocol - httpsocket Class


Kind Regards,
Onno Vrijburg

resolveit you are the MAN!! BIG Thanks for this package!!

[geforce]

Hey all.
I love this class but..

I cant access my admin account because the skin it was using was deleted.

So does anyone have a command which will set the skin of an account?

[geforce]

Nevermind I got it from a post above.

It works that script.

[nzyme]

could some1 put together the features of this class? Im guessing its been evolving a lot since the topic started :)

[l0rdphi1]

could some1 put together the features of this class? Im guessing its been evolving a lot since the topic started :)

Actually, this class has hardly changed since back then; it's designed to be a base class that only queries the DA APIs.

You can find usage for all of the APIs at these URLs:

http://www.directadmin.com/api.html
http://www.directadmin.com/search_versions.php?query=CMD_API

What someone might consider doing is making a library class that extends this class and implements methods that return result sets for each API, but in my mind that's taking it a bit far. :)

Good luck!
