[](#usage)

### Generate a token

[](#generate-a-token)

```
/**
 * Create a token with data and return the id
 * @param  array  $content   an array of custom data
 * @param  string $expire    expire exprimed in '+6 days +2 hours' format
 * @param  int $length Token length
 * @return string            The token id
 */

$myNewTokenId = \Token\Token::generate(array $content, $expire, 8);
```

### Get token

[](#get-token)

```
// return null (expired or not found) or Token entity
$token = \Token\Token::get($tokenId);
```

### Delete token

[](#delete-token)

Tokens deletion can be ignored, they will be destroyed on expire, but sometime you need to delete one token immediately

```
/**
 * Delete token from id or entity
 *
 * @param \Token\Model\Entity\Token|string $token Token entity or id
 * @return bool True if token was deleted
 */
$result = \Token\Token::delete($token);
```

### Auto cleaning

[](#auto-cleaning)

Each time a token is read, expired tokens are pruned
