Signed Urls
===========

[](#signed-urls)

A library for signing and validating short-lived, one-time URLs using public and private keys. Designed for Laravel, but can be used elsewhere.

Evolved from `twogether/laravel-url-signer`

Installation with Laravel
-------------------------

[](#installation-with-laravel)

`composer require actinity/signed-urls`

`php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Actinity\SignedUrls\Laravel\SignedUrlServiceProvider"`

`php artisan actinity:generate-key-pair`

The last command will give you a public and private key pair. Add the private key to your .env file.

```
SIGNED_URLS_PRIVATE_KEY=
```

Configuring
-----------

[](#configuring)

Every app that you will be communicating between needs a `source_name`. By default this is `Str::slug(config('app.name'))` but you can explicitly set it in `config/signed_urls.php`.

Also in that config file you'll see a `public_keys` array. This is where you can add the public keys for apps that will make requests. So if you have an app called `dashboard`, you would configure `'source_name' =>  'dashboard'`. If that needs to make signed requests to an app called `reports`, then in that reports app you would configure it like this:

```
    'source_name' => 'reports',
    'public_keys' => [
        'dashboard' =>
    ]
```

The `source_name` parameter from your config will be added to every generated URL as `ac_sc`. For more complex logic when resolving a key to validate, you can implement `Actinity\SignedUrls\Contracts\KeyProvider`and specify that in the config.

Generating URLs
---------------

[](#generating-urls)

To generate a signed URL, get the service from the service container, likely through injection.

```
$service = app(\Actinity\SignedUrls\SignedUrlService::class);
$url = $service->sign('https://www.example.com');
```

Validating URLs
---------------

[](#validating-urls)

To validate a signed URL:

```
$service = app(\Actinity\SignedUrls\SignedUrlService::class);
try {
    $service->validate($request->fullUrl());
} catch(\Actinity\SignedUrls\Exceptions\InvalidSignedUrl $exception) {
    dd($exception->errors());
}
```

You can also just use `Actinity\SignedUrls\Laravel\SignedUrlMiddleware`.
