How to make API calls to cPanel (or other) servers configured in tblservers?

[QuinnP]

As the title says, I'm writing an addon module and I'd like to know how I can make API calls to cPanel servers that have the API details stored in tblservers. I wasn't able to find anything in the dev docs, so any examples or documentation would be much appreciated. Thanks!

okay so to anybody who's wondering... the API key is in plane text which (afaik)... is not how it's supposed to be

however this does make my job easier. If anybody else is looking, your cURL requests look something like this:

curl -H 'Authorization: whm {tblservers.username}:{tblservers.accesshash}' 'https://{tblservers.hostname}:{tblservers.port}/json-api/{action}?api.version=1'

Replace the action and the relevant fields from tblservers.
