P7M Extractor
=============

[](#p7m-extractor)

A simple class that allows to extract the original file from a signed p7m file.

Added a secondary function in case the original function fails.

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

[](#requirements)

- PHP 7.0+
- Symphony Prcess 3.3 or 4.0+

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

[](#requirements-1)

Behind the scenes this package leverages [openssl](https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSSL). You can verify if the binary installed on your system by issueing this command:

```
which openssl
```

If it is installed it will return the path to the binary.

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer klement-alexander/p7m-extractor
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Extracting text from a pdf is easy. P7M::extract('test.pdf.p7m', 'test.pdf', 'C:/Program Files/OpenSSL-Win64/bin/openssl.exe')

```
use FilippoToso\P7MExtractor\P7M;

$success = (new P7M())
    ->setSource('source.pdf.p7m')
    ->setDestination('destination.pdf')
    ->save();
```

Or easier:

```
use FilippoToso\P7MExtractor\P7M;

$success = P7M::convert('source.pdf.p7m', 'destination.pdf');
```

By default the package will assume that the `openssl` command is located at `/usr/bin/openssl`. If it is located elsewhere pass its binary path to constructor

```
use FilippoToso\P7MExtractor\P7M;

$success = (new P7M('/custom/path/to/openssl'))
    ->setSource('source.pdf.p7m')
    ->setDestination('destination.pdf')
    ->save();
```

or as the last parameter to the `extract` static method:

```
$success = P7M::convert('source.pdf.p7m', 'destination.pdf', '/custom/path/to/openssl');
```

If you want to get the content as a string instead of saving it to a file you can use the get() method or the extract() static method.
