ISPConfig 3 Developer documentation

[otacon]

by listen do you mean a cron job, or in what manner do you have a plugin listen to the module?


When I hear listen I envision the plugin pinging a certain file in the ispconfig port every 5 minutes.

The plugin is not doing anything actively. The ISPConfig Server event based system and listening means that a plugin is subscribing itself for a event and that this plugin executes code when it gets called in case that the event happens.

I am just trying to develop a PHP script to export a list of zones from DNS. Using the API I can get lists for a particular client, but I am not sure how to get a list of all zones from ISPConfig. Is there a function to accomplish this? Or even a function to get a list of all client ID's so I could then in turn pass that off to the dns_zone_get_by_user() function?

I want to import these zones to my vps providers DNS servers as a slave zone using their API so when clients add zones their slaves are added automatically.

Thanks!

I thought a little bit more about the online documentation and I am always coming back to MediaWiki (or another wiki platform) as a better solution for http://docs.ispconfig.org

You can restrict access to admin-generated users, of cause.

i did follow the Steps for creating the menu struckture ... that works, but with creating the List and form pages i ran into problems.

i did the same as you discribed in the doc. I created the form definition and the action file, but no Lan or list file apear after klicking on the link assosiated with them.

all i did to the form file was erase some fields i didn't need and remaned the links.
in the action file i changed
$tform_def_file =

and the help from:
if(!stristr($_SESSION['s']['user']['modules'],'help')) {

weher is my mistake?

Maybe the directories are not writable by the user that runs the ispconfig interface (ispconfig or the apache user, it depends if the interface is run as fastcgi or mod_php).
