Using the Cpanel::Accounting Perl module

For security reasons if you are connecting to a remote server you should set the usessl varible to 1. You must have the Net::SSLeay perl module installed for this to work.

Cpanel::Accounting supports the following methods:

• new - Create a new Cpanel::Accounting Object.

• showversion - Shows what version of WHM the remote server is running.

• listaccts - Lists currently active accounts.

• listpkgs - Lists packages avalible for creation.

• addpkg - Add a package.

• editpkg - Edit a package.

• createacct - Creates a new account on the server.

• killacct - Terminates an account on the server.

• suspend - Suspends an account on the server.

• unsuspend - Unsuspends an account on the server.

Below is a sample Perl program.

#!/usr/bin/perl

BEGIN {

       push (@INC,"/usr/local/cpanel");

}

use Cpanel::Accounting;



my($whm) = Cpanel::Accounting->new;

$whm->{host} = "localhost";

$whm->{user} = "<USERNAME HERE>";

$whm->{accesshash} = '<REMOTE ACCESS KEY HERE>';

$whm->{usessl} = 1;



my %ACCTS = $whm->listaccts();    

if ($whm->{error} ne "") {

       print "There was an error while processing your request: Cpanel::Accounting returned [$whm->{error}]\n";

       exit;

}

if ($whm->{error} ne "") {

       print "There was an error while processing your request: Cpanel::Accounting returned [$whm->{error}]\n";

       exit;

       @ACCTCT = @{$ACCTS{$acct}};

       print "$acct @ACCTCT\n";
