Below you will see a list of each official module produced by Cliquesoft. Clicking on a module name from the list will take you to the appropriate section that outlines the various API's used by the modules' graphical frontend. It is important to note that the 'username' and 'SID' values should be passed for every communication with the server, even if they are null values (which will default to the 'guest' account). Also, all the mentioned parameters that are encapsulated with parenthesis are optional. Any questions, comments, or concerns should be directed to our staff.

Dashboard

In order to process any of these API's, all requests should be directed to the 'modules/webbooks/webbooks.php' file. The type of request will be specified per section below.

Load the interface

Since the default themed dashboard is hard coded within the 'themes/default/webbooks.html' file, there isn't a request to load the interface.

Populate the form

To populate all the various values of the interface form objects, the below parameters will need to be passed via a GET request.

action=init
target=values
username=
SID=

Update user status

To update the users working status, the below parameters will need to be passed via a GET request.

action=init
target=values
username=
SID=

This will return all the information in the following XML layout:

<pre>




==System Configuration==
In order to process any of these API's, all requests should be directed to the 'modules/webbooks/system_configuration.php' file.  The type of request will be specified per section below.

===Load the interface===
To load the modules default HTML interface (themes/default/webbooks.system_configuration.html), the below parameters should be passed to the appropriate php file via a GET request.  Loading an alternative screen relies on the symlinks set in the users data directory (e.g. data/_guest/_theme/{images|layout|styles}).
<pre>
action=init
target=screen
username=
SID=

This will return the raw contents as it is found in the file, replacing all occurrences of the variable ${UN} anywhere.


Populate the form

To populate all the various values of the interface form objects, the below parameters will need to be passed via a GET request.

action=init
target=values
username=
SID=

This will return all the information in the following XML layout:

<general>
   <admin id="INTEGER" name="STRING" type="{provider|vendor|employee}" email="STRING" phone="INTEGER" ext="INTEGER" mobile="INTEGER" sms="{0|1}" mail="{0|1}" />
   <system socialURI="STRING" [accessURI="STRING" logins="INTEGER" support="STRING" balance="DECIMAL" prefix="STRING"] />
</general>

The <system> tag has only one mandatory value (socialURI) when the software is not working in a HOSTED mode, otherwise all the other values will be returned as well.
