This document describes how to implement Modules. A Module allows packages and services to be created. They define the fields requested when adding or editing packages and services, as well as handle all communication with remote servers to provision said packages and services.

As of Blesta 4.12 we've included a useful tool to help developers get started and save time. Blesta's Extension Generator can be used to generate many the files necessary for a module and will create basic code with an option to include comments to help you understand each part of the code. |
Getting Started with Modules
...
Now that we've looked at some of the basic of creating a module, let's take a look at all of the required methods each module must implement: Module Methods.
Registrar Modules
As of Blesta 5.1 we introduced a new type of module, the registrar module. Registrar modules are utilized by the Domain Manager plugin, which include specific functions for domain management. Registrar modules implement all the functions as standard modules in addition to the Blesta\Core\Util\Modules\Registrar interface.
