A Little Project :)

So, when I get bored I start random projects. My most recent one is a control panel for a gsp I plan to open up. It has some neat features but is still very much a wip. I don't plan on using this to replace my current blesta setup but it will go on the gsp.

If you have any suggestions, tips (especially on security), etc... I would love to hear them!

 

 

*I put the topic here since this isn't related to blesta in any way, shape, or form. If it belongs in the show off section well...sorry I guess.*

Not bad and yeah this forum is safe for it lol

Looks nice but I think a fully featured plugin and set of modules for Blesta would work best. Focus on what makes GSP's unique and let Blesta handle the rest.

 

But, if you do develop it as a standalone panel, you can still write a module for Blesta.

If there is a module for Blesta we'll add it our list of Third Party plugins / modules page to help you get customers.

I honestly have no idea how blesta works code side so making a module for it is beyond me. Maybe eventually I will sit down and figure it out. The entire point of this is to be 100% unique from the other providers that use the common billing systems and control panels as the original plan was to keep it to myself.

 

Most likely when/if I make some success off of it I will release it. It runs off of OnApp api to create a vds and install the software. Could make "modules" for other APIs. Just brainstorming

 

Anyways, any suggestions to make this panel more unique are welcome!

After developing a blesta payment gateway and modifying multicraft module enough for making a provisioning module for a totally different service, I think that blesta is a *very* powerful platform for managing service from the service itself to the billing.

 

I have a custom made GSP panel for my services, but as I'm preparing blesta for putting it to my production environment, I find that migrating the whole panel as a blesta module is a very attractive choice, as it can be more comfortable for users (less login combinations to remember (if you don't do something like a shared login), a single portal to manage all.

 

You should really consider doing a module instead of a whole panel, but if you are going to sell and license your panel, you might want to keep it standalone.

 

As a tip for developing, just be paranoid about user input, it always work lol (and you should consider using a WAF like apache's mod security just for prevention)

Every post and get request gets sanitized. As well I am using prepared statements. As for integrating it with blesta, I plan to eventually give it out as licensed panel with a blesta module. That of course will be after I get some use out of it.
