HostBill – Multiple possibilities for developers

Want to build a module for HostBill? Not a problem!

We’ve been working recently on DevKits, documentation and examples so you can integrate virtually anything with HostBill now!

Whats possible?
– Hosting/App/Provisioning modules
– Connecting forms with provisioning modules
– Payment Gateways
– Plugins
– Using API
– Domain Registrars
– Custom Product Types (work in progress)

Stay tuned for next updates – I’m off  trying to hook up coffee machine API with HostBill 😉

Full OnApp 2.1RC4 module hotfix

HostBill users recently reported issue with OnApp 2.1RC4 module.

Problem:
When creating billing plan using API it’s not possible to create machine as a client, as OnApp throws HTTP500 + bad response error.

Solution:
We’ve created patch for OnApp Full-Featured module 2.1. To apply it please download your copy of module again from our client area, and extract archive contents in main HostBill directory.

Patch drawbacks:
This patch hard-codes clients’ cpu-shares to unlimited (it’s not setting cpu-shares limit in OnApp), and for new machines created from HostBill client area it sets cpu-share to 1, despite of slider settings.

Please note:
This is temporary patch, once OnApp will fix this bug with next RC/Stable version we will upload regular version of module with working CPU-Shares limit.
