Direct plugin access to connecting socket

This new feature will allow a plugin to run without any of that overhead. When the plugin outputs something via stdout, that data is immediately sent to the user's socket. No directadmin output it sent through the socket at all.

With this flexibility, comes the responsibility to send the correct headers as well.

The way to tell DA that you want to have full control over the socket, is to rename your script file with the extension ”.raw”, eg:

/usr/local/directadmin/plugins/pluginname/user/script.raw

Sample script.raw:

#!/bin/sh
echo “HTTP/1.1 200 OK”;
echo “Content-Type: text/html”;
echo ””;
echo “hello world<br>”;
sleep 1
echo “hello again<br>”;
sleep 1
echo “and again<br>”;
sleep 1
echo “and again<br>”;
exit 0;
