Manage your All-Inkl account with the KAS API for PHP

All-Inkl.com provides an API for automated access to all your accounts, settings, (sub-)domains, databases, cronjobs, mail accounts, ... This API is called the KAS API. To learn more about it, visit the official KAS API Documentation. There are also some example forms to try out.

This is a PHP implementation of the API, which provides simple access to all functions provided by the API.

Requirements

• PHP >= 7.0
• JSON Extension
• SOAP Extension

Installation

The recommended installation method is to use Composer. This software is available at Packagist.

 composer require kveldscholten/kasapi-php

Alternatively you can clone the following Git repository (git clone https://github.com/kveldscholten/kasapi-php.git, see below).

Usage

Now, we will take a closer look at how this API works.

Whenever you want to use the API, you need to create a KasConfiguration object first. This is done easily:

$kasConfiguration = new KasApi\KasConfiguration($login, $authData, $authType);

$login is quite self explaining. The KAS API allows for different types of authentication. Thus, you need to specify an authentication type and the corresponding authentication data. Have a look at the documentation of All-Inkl to obtain a list of possible authentication methods.

As an example, assume you want to use plain as authentication method. In this case, $authType simply would be plain, and $authData should be set to the plain Password of your KAS account. Assuming your login is w0123456 and your password is password, the following line would create the correct credential object:

$kasConfiguration = new KasApi\KasConfiguration("w0123456", "password", "plain");

Next, you need to create an KasApi object to operate on:

$kasApi = new KasApi\KasApi($kasConfiguration);

On this object, you can call any API method specified in the KAS documentation. Alternatively, you can have a look at the KasApi class.

$kasApi->get_databases();

Examples from the KasApi class might look like this:

protected $functions = [
  [...]
  'get_dns_settings'        => 'zone_host!, record_id',
  'get_domains'             => 'domain_name',
  'get_topleveldomains'     => '',
  'get_ftpusers'            => 'ftp_login',
  'get_mailaccounts'        => 'mail_login',
  [...]
];

This array specifies which API functions you may call and which parameters to pass. The ! suffix means that this parameter is required and has to be specified (e.g. zone_host!), all other parameters are optional (e.g. domain_name).

So if you look at get_dns_settings above, you see that a call like

$kasApi->get_dns_settings([
  'zone_host' => 'example.com.',
  'record_id' => 123
]);

is perfectly valid.

Usage without Composer

Here's an example of how to use the API if you just git clone this repository: (Place this file in the parent directory of the src directory.)

<?php

namespace KasApi;

foreach (glob("src/KasApi/*.php") as $filename) {
    require_once $filename; // include kasapi-php
}

try {
  $kasConfiguration = new KasConfiguration("w0123456", "password", "plain");
  $kasApi = new KasApi($kasConfiguration);

  $kasData = $kasApi->get_domains(); // any API function as described above
} catch(KasApiException $e) {
  echo $e->getFaultstring(); // show SOAP error
}

var_dump($kasData); // $kasData is a plain old PHP array

?>
