TCAdmin API, NOT Billing

[cjmwid]

I'm just curious if there is an API that could be used to let us say, start/stop/restart/execute a custom script from an url? that could contain a token kinda?

 

Like, https://urltopanel.com/api.php?token=<blah>&action=<blank>

 

Reason I ask, I'd like to make a discord bot for this small community they people could send a command to that would run a custom script that would update the server, then from the bot, I could control access for who can run what commands, etc.

 

Not sure if this is possible with billing API if it is any examples would be appreciated!

Best I can think it is if you use the bot to send commands to the billing api url.

 

Here are some examples: http://help.tcadmin.com/Billing_API_Examples

 

I know you mean not billing, but in this case they are one and the same. You can use the same API for the start/stop things.

It doesn't require a billing to work.

I'm more interested in it running a script then starting and stoping

No such thing in the API I am afraid.

Only way I see how that could happen if you use a before or after event to trigger the script.

On a restart or a suspend, etc.

Tcadmin is outdated and lacks many of the modern updates, the API has limited functionality. You can still run mysql queries to manipulate the database however.

Hello,

 

I have already done what you are hoping to do but it's closed source since it's a private project but it's a discord bot like you wanted to make. It's made in C# and it uses the TCAdmin billing API and also MySQL queries to communicate with the database etc.

Through my Discord Bot I can stop/start the server, change the name, amount of people on the server, etc all through the API.

I was speaking with Luis though on Support Ticket. He said in a few months TCAdmin will be upgraded to .net 4.5 and will be introducing a API similar to https://pterodactyl.io/

 

If you'd prefer not to start building an API yourself to use like I did. You may want to wait for a few months.
