I'm currently working on an administration panel for multiple client sites.
In this panel, I want to be able to create a new client, and a new website for the given client. For this, I plan on running scripts to create the database and the site on IIS, and then automatically download (NuGet or some such) and install umbraco and select custom packages.
Ive been looking into programatically installing umbraco, and looking into the source code to see how Umbraco does it with the information entered into the installation wizard, but before trying to override parts of the application and go down "a path of darkness", I just want to ask if anyone else have been having the same "issues" and if so, how you solved it?

Hi Steffen,
Can you share your skype and so we can discuss this things and try to resolve this issue. basically i also want the same functionality.
Thanks Harshwardhan Dangra
Hi Steffen,
maybe have a look at https://our.umbraco.org/projects/collaboration/chauffeur/.
Its a cli to work with the umbraco api and it also has methods to set up the database like the installer does.
