−
It will prepare default configurable options which can be afterward easily edited as described in [https://www.docs.modulesgarden.com/General#How_To_Use_Configurable_Options this article].<br />
+
−
'''''Important:''' Configurable option '' 'flavor|Flavor' will be overwritten by 'disc|Disc', 'ram|RAM' and 'vcpus|VCPUs'.''<br />
+
−
Therefore, you can solve this in three ways:
+
−
*Remove '' 'disc|Disc' '', '' 'ram|RAM' '' and '' 'vcpus|VCPUs' '' configurable option and rely completely on '' 'flavor|Flavor' ''.
+
−
*Remove '' 'disc|Disc' '' and '' 'vcpus|VCPUs' '', and allow '' 'flavor|Flavor' '' being overwritten by '' 'ram|RAM' '' (multiple combinations are allowed here).
+
−
*Remove '' 'flavor|Flavor' '' and rely completely on '' 'disc|Disc' '', '' 'ram|RAM' '' and '' 'vcpus|VCPUs' ''.
+
−
''Note: The second and the third options results in the creation of a new flavor on your server each time a new order is made.''

The content of the package to upload should look like this.  
 
|}
 
|}
 
{|
 
{|
−
|style="padding: 0px 0px 15px 15px;"|Customize the rules according to your needs by providing:
+
|style="padding: 0px 0px 20px 25px;"|[[File:VT_2.png]]
−
*'''direction''' - '' "egress" '' or '' "ingress" ''
+
−
 
+
−
*'''ethertype''' - '' "IPv4" '' or '' "IPv6" ''
+
−
 
+
−
*'''description''' - '' "your rule description" '' - visible in the panel only
+
−
 
+
−
*'''remote_ip_prefix''' - IP address, format bound to the ethertype field, e.g.: '' "::/0" ''
+
−
 
+
−
*'''port_range_min''' - value between 1 and 63535, eg: '' "101" ''
+
−
 
+
−
*'''port_range_max''' - value between 1 and 63535, e.g.: '' "200" ''<br/> In case you enter the same value in the '' 'port_range_min' '' and '' 'port_range_max','' then one port will be set, not a range of ports.
+
−
 
+
−
*'''protocol''' - enter one of the following: '' "tcp", "udp", "icmp", "custom" ''<br/> '''''Important:''' 'Protocol' must be provided if 'port_range' has been defined.''
+
 
|}
 
|}
 
{|
 
{|
−
|style="padding: 0px 0px 30px 15px;"|Now, that your file is ready, a new security group will be created in your OpenStack panel and visible in the product's Module Settings under '' 'Use Security Groups' '' on the product creation.<br/> The rules are visible for the client in the '' 'Firewall' '' section. If you terminate the product, this group will be deleted as well.

===Custom Config Scripts===
 
 
{|
 
{|
−
|style="padding: 10px 0px 15px 15px;"|'''28. In this area, you can write a custom script using [https://raymii.org/s/tutorials/Automating_Openstack_with_Cloud_init_run_a_script_on_VMs_first_boot.html Cloud-Init] and arrange it to be executed on newly created VMs.'''<br />
+
|style="padding: 0px 0px 20px 25px;"|[[File:VT_3.png]]
−
This way you can automate your work instead of making all kinds of specific images for specific tasks manually. <br /><br />
+
−
'''Important notes:'''
+
−
*Scripts can be written in standards like '''Bash''' or '''[https://yaml.org/about.html YAML]'''.
+
−
*You can find examplary clout-init config scripts [https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/examples.html here].
+
−
*Initial scripts have to be supported by VPS operating system to be executed properly.
+
−
*Scripts should be used only by advanced users. The incorrect usage of the scripts may damage your system!

{|
 
{|
−
|style="padding: 0px 0px 15px 15px;"|You can configure scripts in the same format, but for clients' individual choice when ordering the product.<br />
+
|style="padding: 0px 0px 20px 25px;"|[[File:VT_4.png]]
−
All you need to do is add a new configurable option and assign it to the OpenStack VPS & Cloud product.<br />
+
−
'''''Note:''' These scripts are executed regardless of the script specified in the module settings.''<br />
+
−
The easiest way is through the edition of existing 'Configurable options for the OpenStack VPS & Cloud' group, and adding the new configurable option there.<br />
+
−
For example, if you want to offer the pre-installed PHP version depending on a client's choice, you can add a new option named '''script_PHP|PHP version''' and then define multiple options, like on the screenshot below:
+

 +
'''''Note:''' The cron execution is required for products in version 1.1.0 and later.''<br/>
 +
 
 +
php -q /yourWHMCS/modules/servers/VultrVps/cron/cron.php queue
 +
 
 +
Remember to replace "yourWHMCS" with a proper directory. <br/>
 +
Suggested time interval for cron execution is 5 minutes.

==Configuration of Server==

+
|style="padding: 10px 0px 20px 0px;"|'''Before you can go on, you must generate your Vultr API Token. You will need it to connect with the server successfully.'''<br/>
 +
Underneath you will find instructions where to find your API details.

{|
 
{|
−
|style="padding: 0px 0px 20px 25px;"|[[File:VT47.png]]

|style="padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px;"|
+
|style="padding: 0px 0px 20px 25px;"|[[File:VT_5.png]]
−
Using this method, you can perform assorted actions on newly created machines, e.g.: modifying files, preinstalling & preconfiguring software, executing any statements that would normally be executed via the terminal.<br /><br />
+
−
The general rule is that configurable option names should begin with '''script_prefix''' to be recognized as containing a custom script.<br />
+
−
Then, choices under the option have their own names which are matched with a name of existing file with the corresponding script under the
+
−
'''yourWHMCS/modules/servers/OpenStackVpsCloud/scripts''' path.<br />
+
−
Note that files with scripts have to have '''exactly''' extension corresponding to the given entries in the configurable options.<br /><br />
+
−
In the example above, there are two options: '''php5.yml''' and '''php7.yml''', therefore it makes the module read corresponding files:<br />
+
−
*modules/servers/OpenStackVpsCloud/scripts/php5.yml
+
−
or
+
−
*modules/servers/OpenStackVpsCloud/scripts/php7.yml
+
−
You can add many scripts in the exact way.

{|
 
{|
−
|style="padding: 0px 0px 15px 15px;"|'''From the version 1.9.0 you can also use the WHMCS variables of ordered products in your scripts.''' <br />
+
|style="padding: 0px 0px 15px 15px;"|'''8. Move to the '' 'API' '' details section under your account.'''
−
 
+
There find the '' 'Personal Access Token' '' section and generate your API Key.''' <br/>
−
These variables can be managed in the same way as [https://docs.whmcs.com/Email_Templates#Merge_Fields merge fields] in email templates.<br/>
+
You must previously enable API to be able to generate the API key. Copy the key as you will need in the next steps of the server configuration.
−
 
+
−
The exemplary execution of the clout-init test script is presented below:
+
−
 
+
−
<pre>
+
−
#cloud-config
+
−
 
+
−
runcmd:
+
−
    - sudo echo "account id: {$accountid}" >> /tmp/whmcs_info.txt
+
−
    - sudo echo "service id: {$serviceid}" >> /root/whmcs_info.txt
+
−
    - sudo echo "addon id: {$addonId}" >> /var/log/whmcs_info.txt
+
−
    - sudo echo "user id: {$userid}" >> ~/whmcs_info.txt
+
−
</pre>
+
−
 
+
−
You will save IDs of the WHMCS '' 'account', 'service', 'addon' '' and '' 'client' '' into the '' 'whmcs_info.txt' '' files in various directories on the created instance. <br/>Of course, you can use the variables in any custom script according to your needs.<br/>

[edit] Installation and Configuration

This tutorial will show you how to successfully install and configure Vultr VPS For WHMCS.

We will guide you step by step through the whole installation and configuration process.

[edit] Installation

1. Log in to our client area and download the module.
VT 1.png
2. Extract the package and upload its content into the main WHMCS directory.

The content of the package to upload should look like this.

VT 2.png
4. When you install Vultr VPS For WHMCS for the first time you have to rename the 'license_RENAME.php' file.

The file is located in 'modules/servers/VultrVps/license_RENAME.php' . Rename it from 'license_RENAME.php' to 'license.php' .

VT 3.png
5. In order to configure your license key, you have to edit the previously renamed 'license.php' file.

Enter your license key between quotation marks as presented on the following screen.
You can find your license key in our client area → 'My Products'.

VT 3 1.png
6. Now, set up the 'storage' folder as recursively writable.

This folder is available at '/yourWHMCS/modules/servers/VultrVps/'.

VT 4.png
7. The final step of the module instillation is setting up a cron command that is required for several module features to work properly.

Note: The cron execution is required for products in version 1.1.0 and later.

php -q /yourWHMCS/modules/servers/VultrVps/cron/cron.php queue

Remember to replace "yourWHMCS" with a proper directory.
Suggested time interval for cron execution is 5 minutes.

[edit] Configuration of Server

Before you can go on, you must generate your Vultr API Token. You will need it to connect with the server successfully.

Underneath you will find instructions where to find your API details.

7. Firstly, log into your Vultr account at: https://my.vultr.com/.
VT 5.png
8. Move to the 'API' details section under your account.

There find the 'Personal Access Token' section and generate your API Key.
You must previously enable API to be able to generate the API key. Copy the key as you will need in the next steps of the server configuration.

VT 6.png
9. Now, log in to your WHMCS and proceed to 'System Settings' → 'Servers' and press 'Add New Server'.
VT 7.png
10. Next, enter your server name and a hostname or an IP address. Then select 'Vultr VPS' from the 'Type' field.

Now, provide the previously generated API token in the 'Password' field. Then check the connection, if successful, save the changes.

VT 8.png
11. It is time to create a server group. To do so, click on 'Create Server Group'.
VT 9.png
12. Enter a name, click on your previously created server, press 'Add' and afterward 'Save Changes'.
VT 10.png

[edit] Configuration of Product

Click on 'Create a New Group' .

VT 11.png
14. Enter a product group name and press 'Save Changes'.
VT 12.png
15. When you have a product group, you can create your product.

21. At the end of the configuration process, you can decide whether you want to generate configurable options for the product.

Configurable options can be used by your clients to select each virtual machine parameters individually during order placement.
Otherwise, if configurable options are not defined, then the fixed parameters specified in the earlier configuration will be used instead.

If you decide to use configurable options, press the 'Create' button and select which options you want to generate.

Remember that only one of the four options: 'osapp_id|Operating System or Application' 'os_id|Operating System', 'iso_id|ISO', 'snapshot_id|Snapshot', 'app_id|Application' can be used at once!
In case more than just one option is left for the client to select, they will be taken into consideration in the following manner:

  1. 'osapp_id|Operating System or Application'
  2. 'os_id|Operating System'
  3. 'Snapshot'
  4. 'ISO'
  5. 'Application' as the last one.

Note that the configuration for disabled options will still be taken from the configuration of the main product.
More information about how to use configurable options can be found here or in the official WHMCS documentation.
