Spaceship.com Registrar Module for WHMCS

Sell and manage Spaceship.com domains from WHMCS. This free, open-source module connects WHMCS to the Spaceship.com Public API, with caching that keeps you clear of API rate limits.

Features

Domain lifecycle: registration, renewal and incoming transfers, with transfer status tracking.
Domain sync: keeps expiry dates and statuses up to date, including grace period and redemption.
WHOIS contacts: clients view and update Registrant, Admin, Tech and Billing contacts. Duplicate contacts aren't created.
ID protection: turn WHOIS privacy on or off.
DNS management: A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT and SRV records in the WHMCS client area.
Child nameservers: create, update and delete glue records such as ns1.yourdomain.com.
Registrar lock and EPP codes: lock status is checked through the API, with an EPP status fallback.
Domain lookup: availability checks through the Spaceship API.
Account balance: see your Spaceship wallet balance on the registrar settings page.
Rate-limit protection: a database cache cuts API calls and prevents "429 Too Many Requests" errors.
Module logging: uses WHMCS module logging, with API keys masked.

Requirements

WHMCS 8.x or 9.x
PHP 7.4 or later (8.1+ recommended)
A Spaceship.com API key and secret with the domain, contact and (optionally) DNS scopes

Installation

Download the latest release from GitHub and upload the modules/ folder to your WHMCS root.
Go to System Settings > Domain Registrars and activate Spaceship.
Enter your API key and secret.

Spaceship.com still has strict API call limitations, which is where the 422 errors actually come from.

You did not even submit a support ticket or an email. Let us know here -> https://my.topeta.com/support-portal/
