API Usage in Skins

[mikeyg6754]

Hello,
I would like to be able to retrieve Server Stats in a skin that I am working on. It seems that all the stats that I am looking to use individually are contained within the |STATS| variable.
I saw the CMD_ADMIN_STATS in the API and it looks like this would be perfect. I am just unsure of how I should go about retrieving the variables from the Skin.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Hello,

And what is your question? Note, API can be used anywhere where you want it, and custom PHP code can be used within Directadmin skins. All you need to start learning API you can find here: http://directadmin.com/api.html

If I were to use CMD_ADMIN_STATS how would I get the results to the page, would I have to use CURL ?

There is ability to use CMD_API_ADMIN_STATS with Php Communication class for DA's API

Ok, I've looked at this class and it looks like it might work. My only problem now is:

$sock->connect('yoursite.com',2222);
$sock->set_login('admin','password');

How can I get the current login data in order to connect?

If I'm not mistaken, you can connect to 127.0.0.1

$sock->connect('127.0.0.1',2222);

within the current session without need to authenticate additionally.

When I put the following in my content_main.html it ends up printing part of the code on screen.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong. I've tried to change the file extensions of index and content_main to php and update them in the files_admin.conf but that did not change anything.

<?php
	include '|HTM_SOCKET|';

	$sock = new HTTPSocket;

	$sock->connect('127.0.0.1',2222);

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

?>

Here is exactly what I am getting.

I appreciate your help!

You need to use PHP code within a special token:

|$/usr/local/bin/php
<?
echo "Hello world!";
echo "Document root is: ".getenv("DOCUMENT_ROOT");
?>
