How to create an addon domain using xmlapi-php?

I am trying to create an addon domain using xmlapi-php. I have a shared hosting account.

This sample code is from github 

<?php

    include '../xmlapi.php';    
    $ip = getenv('REMOTE_HOST');
    $root_pass = getenv('REMOTE_PASSWORD');

    $domain = "somedns.com";

    $xmlapi = new xmlapi($ip);
    $xmlapi->password_auth("root",$root_pass);
    $xmlapi->set_http_client('curl');
    $xmlapi->set_port(2086);
    $xmlapi->set_debug(1);

    print $xmlapi->adddns($domain,$ip);            
?>

I am having trouble getting this code to work to create an addon domain. How can it be done?

Well I've figured it out to the best of my ability and here is the solution for all the lost souls out there:

Authentication

You need run the following code at least once for authentication and xml api wrapper:

// AUTHENTICATION -------------------------

  include("xmlapi.php");    

  $host = "Host ip address or Site.com";
  $my_user = "Your cPanel user ID";
  $my_pass = "Your cPanel password";

  $xmlapi = new xmlapi($host);
  $xmlapi->set_port(2083);
  $xmlapi->password_auth($my_user, $my_pass);
  $xmlapi->set_output('json');
  $xmlapi->set_debug(1);

Now you can start using the functions provided in the xmlapi.php but you are not limited to them.

Email Creation Example

// Calling on the function "addpop" "email_user@email_domain" ------------------------- 

  $email_user = "apitest";
  $email_password = "adfm90f";
  $email_domain = "somesite.com";
  $email_query = '10';
  $email_quota = '600';

  //$result will be set equal to the JSON output returned by the call
  //api1_query is the function
  //in the array is where you pass the required parameters

  $result = $xmlapi->api1_query($my_user, "Email", "addpop", 
  array($email_user, $email_password, $email_quota, $email_domain));

Displaying the results

 $result = json_decode($result, true); //Decoding the JSON results to PHP
 print_r($result); //Printing the array onto the page

 //example of displaying a particular array key, in this example its "result"

 echo $result['data']['result'];
