cPanel API 2 Functions - Branding::spritelist

Description

This function lists sprite information and locations. Sprites store the cPanel interface's icons as a single image to conserve bandwidth.

Warning:

We strongly recommend that you use the following UAPI function instead of this function:

  • Branding::spritelist — This function retrieves a sprite URL.

Note:

cPanel API 2's Branding module only modifies data for the x3 theme.

 

Examples


 WHM API (JSON)

https://hostname.example.com:2087/cpsess###########/json-api/cpanel?cpanel_jsonapi_user=user&cpanel_jsonapi_apiversion=2&cpanel_jsonapi_module=Branding&cpanel_jsonapi_func=gensprites&img=

 LiveAPI PHP Class

$cpanel new CPANEL(); // Connect to cPanel - only do this once.

    'Branding''gensprites',
        array(      
            'img'           => 'getstart',

 LiveAPI Perl Module

my $cpliveapi = Cpanel::LiveAPI->new(); # Connect to cPanel - only do this once.
  
# List sprite information for the Getting Started Wizard.
my $list_sprites $cpliveapi->api2(
    'Branding''gensprites',
    {
            'img'           => 'getstart',
            'imgtype'       => 'icon',
            'method'        => 'skip_filetype_gif',
            'subtype'       => 'img',
    }
 );

 cPanel Tag System (deprecated)

Warning:

In cPanel & WHM version 11.30 and later, cPanel tags are deprecated. We strongly recommend that you only use the LiveAPI system to call the cPanel APIs.

cPanel API 2 calls that use cPanel tags vary widely in code syntax and in their output. For more information, read our Deprecated cPanel Tag Usage documentation. Examples are only present in order to help developers move from the old cPanel tag system to our LiveAPI.
