Python Directadmin

A python implementation of Directadmin's Web API

Introduction

The aim of this project is to provide a simple and clean implementation of Directadmin's Web API for Python developers.

Directadmin is a popular web control panel. It provides an HTTP API which python-directadmin intends to implement, to help python developers interact with the control panel.

Install

Since version 0.3 python-directadmin comes with an installer script which uses distutils.

To install, just run:

python setup.py install

Examples

List all users

import directadmin

api = directadmin.Api("admin", "password", "hostname.com", 2222)
print api.list_all_users()

Connect using HTTPS and list all users

import directadmin

api = directadmin.Api("admin", \
                      "password", \
                      "hostname.com", \
                      2222, \
                      True)
print api.list_all_users()

Create an EndUser (regular user)

import directadmin

api = directadmin.Api("admin", "password", "hostname.com")
user = EndUser('username', \
               'email@domain.com', \
               'userpassword', \
               'domain.com', \
               'service_package_1', \
               '1.2.3.4')
if api.create_user(user, True):
    print "User %s successfuly created" % user['username']
else:
    print "Failed to create user"

Scripts

Within the source code of this project you will find some sample scripts meant to explain how to use the API while performing some basic administrative tasks.

Check out the Suspension Script with its source code and the DirectAdmin Console with its source code.
