Question php script to create websites

thomasvestergaard

New Pleskian
Hello

I use plesks 10.4.4 and would like to know if i can create websites with a php script?

Today i create them manually but the amount of sites i create is getting more and more and would like to automate the process.

I know nothing of plesks api so any help is appreciated

Regards
Thomas
 
My problem is that i don't know how to call "create website" and how to set all of the parametres that is avaliable. I'm looking for a easy to follow guide in php?
 
I now have access to get all domains and see som info.

1. But in this add excample how do i know what to set in webspace-id, can i leave it blank and it will autocreate a unik id?
2. How do i enable "Microsoft ASP support "
3. How do i enable "Custom error documents "
4. How do i enable " Additional write/modify permissions "
5. How do i switch Web statistics to "Webalizer" and check the checkbox in "accessible via password-protected directory '/plesk-stat/webstat/"

<packet version="1.6.3.0">
<site>
<add>
<gen_setup>
<name>sample.com</name>
<webspace-id>13</webspace-id>
</gen_setup>
<hosting>
<vrt_hst>
<property>
<name>fastcgi</name>
<value>true</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>php</name>
<value>true</value>
</property>
</vrt_hst>
</hosting>
</add>
</site>
</packet>
 
I now have this php code, but have no idear how to move on

function addNewSite()
{
$xmldoc = new DomDocument('1.0', 'UTF-8');
$xmldoc->formatOutput = true;

// <packet>
$packet = $xmldoc->createElement('packet');
$packet->setAttribute('version', '1.6.3.0');
$xmldoc->appendChild($packet);

// <packet/site>
$site = $xmldoc->createElement('site');
$packet->appendChild($site);

// <packet/domain/add>
$add = $xmldoc->createElement('add');
$domain->appendChild($add);

// <packet/domain/get/gen_setup>
$gen_setupTmp = $xmldoc->createElement('gen_setup');
$get->appendChild($gen_setupTmp);

// dataset elements
$gen_setupTmp->appendChild($xmldoc->createElement('name'));
$gen_setupTmp->appendChild($xmldoc->createElement('webspace-id'));



return $xmldoc;
}
 
And what about these,

  • webspace-name, required
    It defines the name of a subscription to which the Panel will assign a new site. Data type: string.

  • webspace-id, required
    It defines the ID of a subscription to which the Panel will assign a new site. Data type: string.

  • webspace-guid, required
    It defines the GUID of a subscription to which the Panel will assign a new site. Data type: string
 
Sorry, I'm not PHP developer. I have given you all available documentation and direction. Then you, as a PHP developer, can sort it out by yourself, I think.
