Command Line Interfase to SB anyone?

[JRios]

I am not too familiar with SB yet, i am looking for a way to auto create users con SB, perhpas as in PLESK by a command line, or in this case is it as simple as adding the user directable to the database table??? ... any help would be appreciated !

There are no utilities providing this functionality. Writing directly to the DB is not really an option because db structure seems rather complicated so it is very easy to screw things up

IMHO the best way to solve this problem is to write some utility that creates users/sites/whatever using remote api.

Refer to API documentation http://download1.swsoft.com/SiteBui..._US/sitebulder-3.2-win-sdk-integration-guide/

SiteBuilder implements SOAP-based API (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOAP)

Here is the simple code that invokes CreateAccountWithNewPlan to create reseller. Note that in practice one should use a combination of CreatePlan and CreateAccountFull instead of CreateAccountWithNewPlan.

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use SOAP::Lite +trace => [ qw (all) ];

my $soap = SOAP::Lite
    -> proxy('http://sitebuilder.yourserver/ServiceFacade/AccountWebService.asmx')
    -> ns('http://swsoft.com/SiteBuilder/AccountService/v_3_2');

my @headers = (SOAP::Header->name("CredentialsSoapHeader" =>
                \SOAP::Data->value(
					SOAP::Header->name("Login" => "admin"),
					SOAP::Header->name("Password" => "admin")
                )
));
$headers[0]->uri("http://swsoft.com/SiteBuilder/AccountService/v_3_2");

my @data = (
        SOAP::Data->name("username", "test"),
        SOAP::Data->name("password", "test"),
        SOAP::Data->name("firstName", "john"),
        SOAP::Data->name("lastName", "doe"),
        SOAP::Data->name("email", 'john@nowhere.com'),
        SOAP::Data->name("role", "Reseller"),
);

$soap->CreateAccountWithNewPlan(@data, @headers);

You'll need sitebuilder-remote_admin package installed as well as perl with SOAP::Lite to run this code.
