Member Management API? Can I add/remove/update members via an API?

Hi all,
I’m new to EE and doing some research for a client who needs to integrate EE with a 3rd party system (NATS from Too Much Media).
Does EE offer an API – or some other mechanism – that allows the following?
- ADD a user
- REMOVE a user
- CHECK if a username is available
Thanks so much in advance!

If not via API, would this just be done by straight SQL? (yuck)

Hi OwenKav,
Looks like no one helped you out with this one. Did you manage to find out if this is possible?

Take a look at the member model.
$this->EE->load->model('member_model');
$this->EE->load->helper('security');
$data['username'] = $this->input->post('username');
$data['password'] = do_hash($this->input->post('password'));
$data['email'] = $this->EE->input->post('email');
$data['ip_address'] = $this->EE->input->ip_address();
$data['unique_id'] = random_string('encrypt');
$data['join_date'] = $this->EE->localize->now;
$data['language'] = $this->EE->config->item('deft_lang');
$data['timezone'] = ($this->EE->config->item('default_site_timezone') && $this->EE->config->item('default_site_timezone') != '') ? $this->EE->config->item('default_site_timezone') : $this->EE->config->item('server_timezone');
$data['daylight_savings'] = ($this->EE->config->item('default_site_dst') && $this->EE->config->item('default_site_dst') != '') ? $this->EE->config->item('default_site_dst') : $this->EE->config->item('daylight_savings');
$data['time_format'] = ($this->EE->config->item('time_format') && $this->EE->config->item('time_format') != '') ? $this->EE->config->item('time_format') : 'us';
$data['group_id'] = 1;
if ($this->EE->member_model->get_members('', '', '', $data['username'], '', 'username')->num_rows() > 0)
{
$this->EE->output->show_user_error('submission', 'Username already exists!!!!');
}
$member_id = $this->EE->member_model->create_member($data);
$this->EE->member_model->delete_member($member_id);You’d, of course, have to do this in your own custom module/template.
