Heliip Laravel Encrypted Responses
==================================

[](#heliip-laravel-encrypted-responses)

Laravel package for encrypting API responses with Laravel's `Crypt` service.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.3 or higher
- Laravel 13
- PHP extensions: `json`, `zlib`

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require heliip/laravel-encrypted-responses
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=encrypted-responses-config
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Enable automatic registration for the `api` middleware group:

```
ENCRYPT_RESPONSES_AUTO_REGISTER=true
```

Or register the middleware manually in `bootstrap/app.php`:

```
use Heliip\LaravelEncryptedResponses\Http\Middleware\EncryptResponse;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Configuration\Middleware;

->withMiddleware(function (Middleware $middleware) {
    $middleware->api(append: [
        EncryptResponse::class,
    ]);
})
```

For specific routes, use the middleware alias:

```
Route::middleware('encrypt.responses')->get('/profile', ProfileController::class);
```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

The configuration file is published to `config/encrypted-responses.php`.

Common environment variables:

```
ENCRYPT_RESPONSES_ENABLED=true
ENCRYPT_RESPONSES_AUTO_REGISTER=false
ENCRYPT_RESPONSES_JSON_ENCODED_COMPRESSED_PAYLOAD=true
ENCRYPT_RESPONSES_COMPRESS=true
ENCRYPT_RESPONSES_COMPRESSION_LEVEL=9
ENCRYPT_RESPONSES_OUTPUT=raw
ENCRYPT_RESPONSES_CONTENT_TYPE=text/plain
```

`ENCRYPT_RESPONSES_OUTPUT=raw` returns the encrypted string as the response body.

`ENCRYPT_RESPONSES_OUTPUT=json` returns:

```
{"payload":"encrypted-value"}
```

Payload Format
--------------

[](#payload-format)

With `ENCRYPT_RESPONSES_JSON_ENCODED_COMPRESSED_PAYLOAD=true`, payloads are encoded as:

```
Crypt::encryptString(json_encode(base64_encode(gzcompress(json_encode($data), 9))))
```

Exclusions
----------

[](#exclusions)

The middleware skips:

- Binary file responses
- Streamed responses
- Empty responses such as `204` and `304`
- Excluded paths and route names
- Excluded content types such as images, video, PDF, and ZIP

To skip encryption for a single request:

```
X-Skip-Response-Encryption: 1
```

Manual Encryption
-----------------

[](#manual-encryption)

```
use Heliip\LaravelEncryptedResponses\Facades\EncryptedResponse;

$encrypted = EncryptedResponse::encrypt(['ok' => true]);
```

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

```
composer test
```
