NAME

App::WHMCSUtils - CLI utilities related to WHMCS

VERSION

This document describes version 0.006 of App::WHMCSUtils (from Perl distribution App-WHMCSUtils), released on 2019-09-19.

FUNCTIONS

calc_deferred_revenue

Usage:

calc_deferred_revenue(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

This utility collects invoice items from paid invoices, filters eligible ones, then defers the revenue to separate months for items that should be deferred, and finally sums the amounts to calculate total monthly deferred revenues.

This utility can also be instructed (via setting the full option to true) to output the full CSV report (each items with their categorizations and deferred revenues).

Recognizes English and Indonesian description text.

Categorization heuristics:

  • Fund deposits are not recognized as revenues.

  • Hosting revenues are deferred, but when the description indicates starting and ending dates and the dates are not too old.

  • Domain and addon revenues are not deferred, they are recognized immediately.

  • Other items will be assumed as immediate revenues.

Extra rules (applied first) can be specified via the extra_rules option.

To use this utility, install the Perl CPAN distribution App::WHMCSUtils. Then, create a configuration file ~/whmcs-calc-deferred-revenue.conf containing something like:

db_name=YOURDBNAME
db_host=YOURDBHOST
db_user=YOURDBUSER
db_pass=YOURDBPASS

db_host defaults to localhost. db_user and db_pass can be omitted if you have /etc/my.cnf or ~/.my.cnf. This utility can search for username/password from those files.

You can also add other configuration like extra_rules, e.g.:

extra_rules=[{"type": "^$", "description": "^(?^i)sewa\\b.*ruang", "category": "rent"}]

You can then run the utility for the desired, e.g.:

% whmcs-calc-deferred-revenue --date-start 2013-01-01 --date-end 2017-10-31 \
    --date-old-limit 2013-01-01 --full --output-file ~/output.csv

Wait for a while and check the output at ~/output.csv.

This function is not exported.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • date_end => date

    End at this date (based on invoice payment date).

  • date_old_limit => date

    Set what date will be considered too old to recognize item as revenue.

    Default is 2008-01-01.

  • date_start => date

    Start from this date (based on invoice payment date).

  • db_host => str (default: "localhost")

  • db_name* => str

  • db_pass => str

  • db_port => net::port (default: 3306)

  • db_user => str

  • extra_rules => array[hash]

    Example (in JSON):

    [
        {
            "type": "^$",
            "description": "^SEWA",
            "category": "rent"
        }
    ]
  • full => true

  • output_file => filename

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (any)

restore_whmcs_client

Usage:

restore_whmcs_client(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

Restore a missing client from SQL database backup.

This function is not exported.

This function supports dry-run operation.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • client_email => str

  • client_id => posint

  • restore_domains => bool (default: 1)

  • restore_hostings => bool (default: 1)

  • restore_invoices => bool (default: 1)

  • sql_backup_dir => dirname

    Directory containing per-table SQL files.

  • sql_backup_file => filename

    Can accept either .sql or .sql.gz.

    Will be converted first to a directory where the SQL file will be extracted to separate files on a per-table basis.

Special arguments:

  • -dry_run => bool

    Pass -dry_run=>1 to enable simulation mode.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (any)

send_verification_emails

Usage:

send_verification_emails(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

Send verification emails for clients who have not had their email verified.

WHMCS does not yet provide an API for this, so we do this via a headless browser.

This function is not exported.

This function supports dry-run operation.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • action => str (default: "send-verification-emails")

    The default action is to send verification emails. You can also just list the clients who haven't got their email verified yet.

  • url* => url

    It should be without /admin part, e.g.:

    https://client.mycompany.com/

Special arguments:

  • -dry_run => bool

    Pass -dry_run=>1 to enable simulation mode.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (payload) is optional, the actual result.
