A simple PHP class for license generation and verification based on openssl signatures

Usage

Using the Licensee class is as easy as pie, because it follows the PSR-0 namespace standard.

1. Add "bart/licensee":"dev-master" to your composer.json require-dev
2. Run composer update
3. Enjoy!

Note: If you developing with the amazing Laravel 4 framework, you can add an alias: 'License' => 'Bart\Licensee\License'

Methods

createLicense($data, $private_key_path, [$license_path])
storeLicense($license_path)
validateLicense($license_path, $public_key_path)
getDataAndValidateLicense($license_path, $public_key_path)
createKeypair([$private_key_path], [$public_key_path])

Example

$lic = new License();

// The array we want to create a license from
$data = array(
  'licensee' => 'Company name',
  'version' => '1.0',
  'valid_until' => time() + 60*60*24,
  'key' => sha1(uniqid(true))
);

// Create a new public and private key
$lic::createKeypair('/tmp/private.pem', '/tmp/public.pem');

// Create the license
$lic->createLicense($data, '/tmp/private.pem', '/tmp/license.lic');

// Validate the license and get the data back
$valid_data = $lic->getDataAndValidateLicense('/tmp/license.lic', '/tmp/public.pem');
