Methods

• $OBJ->login( username => str, password => str, )

  Returns { msg => str, ok => bool, token => str }

• $OBJ->set_password( username => str, password => str, token => str, )

• $OBJ->add_user( firstname => str, lastname => str, email => str, username => str, password => str, token => str, )

• $OBJ->get_users( token => str, )

• $OBJ->enrol_student( username => str, course => str, token => str, )

• $OBJ->get_course_id( short_cname => str, token => str, )

• $OBJ->get_user( token => str, username => str, )

• $OBJ->suspend_user( token => str, username => str, suspend => bool default TRUE )

  If suspend is true/nonzero (which is the default) it kills the user's session and suspends their account preventing them from logging in. If suspend is false they are given permission to login. NOTE: This will only work if the Moodle server has had this patch (or its equivalent) applied: https://github.com/fabiomsouto/moodle/compare/MOODLE_22_STABLE...MDL-31465-MOODLE_22_STABLE

• $OBJ->raw_api( method => moodle webservice method name, token => str, params => hashref of method parameters )

  returns Moodle's response.
