The fetch() method is a wrapper to return a hash reference from the cpanelprint() function, which retrieves a cPanel variable.

We deprecated this method.
To return a data result for a cPanel variable's value, use the cpanelprint() method.

Example

// Get a hashref of the cPanel account's username.
$cpanel->fetch('$user');

# Get a hashref of the cPanel account's username.
$cpliveapi->fetch('$user');

Parameter	Type	Description	Possible values	Example
`variable`	string	A cPanel variable.	A valid cPanel variable. For a full list of cPanel variables, read our Guide to cPanel Variables documentation.	`$user`

This method returns the cPanel variable's value as a hash reference.
