PHP scripting along with Enhance?

MediaServe

So I'm coming to terms with the Enhance API, and know where to retrieve the data I need to provide to the cPGuard security system. I'm at the point where I'm ready to develop the PHP scripts to supply data from the API to cPGuard in the required format, and I've discovered that when I connect to the shell as root, PHP is not available by default.

What's the best way to address this? cPGuard (presumably) will be installed outside of a docker container.

Put the PHP scripts necessary to supply data from Enhance to cPGuard somewhere in the Control Panel container (the purple one tagged as CTL) where PHP is available, or is it really? Might be the best but I figured I'd ask the community.

Also, the documentation has been overhauled this weekend, but this page is blank:

MediaServe Ah good spot! I'll get the contents added to this guide asap.

MediaServe

Aliysa_Enhance Well, that page is gone totally now. Still interested in advice on how best to work with custom PHP scripts in the control panel container to work with the Enhance API to provide data to cPGuard installed outside of containerization.

MediaServe

cPGuard actually installed a PHP binary to use, so I'll use that to develop the scripts. Won't need to figure out the best way to handle PHP from the control panel container after all. I originally considered installing PHP (with APT) but I never like to install additional layers of security concerns if PHP is already available, and since cPGuard supplies their own embedded PHP-FPM system that will solve the problem.

Thank you very much for your hard work in porting CPGuard to Enhance
I use it under cPanl/Directadmin, and I am fully satisfied. I will certainly switch any VPS to Enhance when this solution is available.

MediaServe

Copernic Thanks! I'll be sure and update this thread when I get things working.

The cPGuard team will probably add detection for Enhance and prompt for the API details to install, restrict domains to the local server, etc. so that the user/domain files are already created during the install process. That would the best way to install I imagine, so I'll try to get that up and running as soon as possible.

I myself am desperate to be rid of cPanel, so I'll be working on this with every free minute!
