cPanel connection wrapper for Ruby.

You will first need to build the basic class for the remote server calls you wish to implement. I wrote the plugin to be extremely barebones, so you could implement what you deemed necessary to stay lean:

require 'cpanel'

class CpanelServer  
  attr_reader :server

  def initialize(url, key, user = 'root')    
    @server = Cpanel::Server.new({
      :url => url,
      :key => key,
      :user => user
    })
  end

  def change_password(user, new_password)
    server.request("passwd", {
      :user => user,
      :pass => new_password
    })
  end
end

server = CpanelServer.new("https://server.com:2086", "API_KEY_HERE")
server.change_password("myuser12", "s3cur3p@55")

All API calls can be performed using JSON or XML. You can set this in the initialization, if you’d like:

def initialize(url, key, connection_type = "json")
  @server = Cpanel::Server.new({
    :url => url,
    :key => key,
    :api => connection_type
  })
end

Please insert all bug and feature requests into the GitHub Issues tracker:

github.com/voxxit/cpanel/issues

• Fork the project.

• Make your feature addition or bug fix.

• Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.

• Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)

• Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
