A PHP library for signing URLs and verify their validity.

It works by appending a computed signature and an expiring timestamp to an URL. The generated URL is valid if its data is not altered in any way and until the specified expiring time.

A signed URL possession, provides limited time to perform a request, and can transport publicly visible query parameters, for example tokens and other not sensitive data, without the need to store them in a backend storage like session or cache.

Some use cases:

- Login links
- Password reset links
- Email confirmation links
- etc.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install via Composer:

```
composer require coppolafab/php-url-signer
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use coppolafab\UrlSigner\HashHmacUrlSigner;
use DateTimeImmutable;

$urlSigner = new HashHmacUrlSigner('valid'  /** signature key */);

// valid until 2020-09-13T12:26:40+00:00
$expirationDate = (new DateTimeImmutable())->setTimestamp(1600000000);

$signedUrl = $urlSigner->sign('https://example.com/', $expirationDate);
// 'https://example.com/?url_expires_at=1600000000&signature=d6ebe19e590813d94d1b58fe9f9e204a3c5f074ac791dbf0fc2bc3631091f2f1'

$isValid = $urlSigner->verify($signedUrl);
// true, if verified before $expirationDate
```
