h9.js - Node.js Wrapper for the HostNine API

This wrapper attemps to normalize the HostNine API that is provided to Resellers. The following coding practices are employed to make this API as flexible as possible.

Any domains lookups may use the domain ID OR the domain name
Any package lookups may use the package id OR package name. Any time the package is referenced in an object you may directly reference the ID with package_id, the package name with package or automatically lookup the package with pack
Most location lookups may use the location ID OR location name. The only exception is for createAccount method.

Each callback returns data with the following practices:

The success attribute is always persistant on all requests
The result attribute is persistant on most requests. This is passed through based on the API results
Any singular data points are assigned to the data attribute
Any listed array based data will be listed based on the method used. For example getAccounts will return accounts.
All errors return a message attrible useful for user friendly errors.

Code Examples

   var h9 = require('h9')('API-KEY-GOES-HERE');
   
   // list all active accounts 
   h9.getAccounts({status:1},function(err, results){
       if(err){
           console.error(err)
       }else{
           if(results.success){
               console.log('Accounts:', results.accounts);
           }else{
               console.log('Failed to list accounts:', results.result);
           }
       }
   });
   
   // create new account (note this normally takes several seconds to complete) https://cp.hostnine.com/api/docs/accounts.html#createAccount
   h9.createAccount({
       domain: 'exampledomain.com',
       username: 'username',
       password: 'ChangeThisPassword',
       location: '(US) Central)',
       pack_id: 'PackageName',
       contact: 'example@email.com'
   },function(err,results){
        if(results.success){
            console.log('Account Created');
        }else{
            console.error('Failed to create account with error: '+results.result);
        }
   });
   
   
   // view account https://cp.hostnine.com/api/docs/accounts.html#viewAccount
   h9.viewAccount('exampledomain.com',function(err,results){
        if(results.success){
            console.log('Account Created');
        }else{
            console.error('Failed to create account with error: '+results.result);
        }
   });
   
   // edit account https://cp.hostnine.com/api/docs/accounts.html#modifyAccount
   h9.modifyAccount('exampledomain.com',{
       quota: 1024*50
   },function(err,results){
        if(results.success){
            console.log('Account Created');
        }else{
            console.error('Failed to create account with error: '+results.result);
        }
   });
   
   // fix permissions https://cp.hostnine.com/api/docs/scriptstools.html#fixPermissions
   h9.fixPermissions('exampledomain.com',function(err,results){
        if(results.success){
            console.log('Account permissions fixed');
        }else{
            console.error('Failed to fix communications with error: '+results.result);
        }
   });

Documentation

If you need documentation on what the methods or data points are, I would recommend matching the methods here with the API Docs. Each page is separate into functions depending on their grouping.
