WHMCS SDK

A simple wrapper around the WHMCS API.

Installation

This package is installed using Composer. You can use the following command to add it to a project.

composer require hansadema/whmcs-sdk
composer update

Usage

This API client encapsulates the WHMCS with a simple OO wrapper.

First, you need to create a client instance with the details of your WMCS installation:

$api = new \HansAdema\WhmcsSdk\Client('https://example.com/whmcs/installation/url/', 'myusername', 'mypassword');

Note the trailing / in the URL. The username and password are the credentials of a user with the "API Access" permission. You can use your main admin user for this, but for security it's recommended to create a special API user for every project.

After creating the client, you can start to send a request. The methods correspond to the action names from the WHMCS API, the other attributes can be submitted as an array.

For example, to execute the "AcceptOrder" action, you could use the following code.

try {
    $result = $api->acceptOrder([
        'orderid' => 123,
        'serverid' => 456,
        //...
    ]);
} catch (\HansAdema\WhmcsSdk\RequestException $e) {
    echo "Error connecting to WHMCS: ".$e->getMessage();
} catch (\HansAdema\WhmcsSdk\ResponseException $e) {
    echo "There was an issue with your API call: ".$e->getMessage();
}

Note that two different types of exceptions are being used here. The RequestException is used whenever there is a problem connecting to your WHMCS installation, for example because the installation is down or the credentials are not correct. The ResponseException is thrown whenever the API result was not successful, for example due to missing or invalid method parameters.
