WHMCS Marketplace authentication

The WHMCS Marketplace authentication configuration is required and can be set via environment variables.

If you don't have an WHMCS Marketplace account yet, please create one. The credentials have to be made available in your CI environment via the WHMCSMP_LOGIN and WHMCSMP_PASSWORD environment variables. The account must have access to the product(s) you want to publish new versions for.

WHMCS Marketplace Product ID

The WHMCS Marketplace Product ID configuration is required and can be set via environment variables.

The Product ID has to be made available in your CI environment via the WHMCSMP_PRODUCTID environment variable.

That said, before you can use this module for publishing new product/module version to the WHMCS Marketplace, this Product has already to exist and as mentioned above, the account you provide here for authentication has to have access to manage that product. You can find the Product ID in the url when being in edit mode e.g. https://marketplace.whmcs.com/product/1234/edit.

Environment variables
