This project supports the following: ------------------------------------ [](#this-project-supports-the-following) - Full EPP 57xx RFC standard - Extensible PHP objects to add registry-specific additions - Rock-solid object-oriented programming, object inheritance and exception handling - Interface tested and in use with a registrar that handles 600.000+ domain names - Public/private key client certificates for connecting to EPP service (for example see Registries/IIS) - Connection to EPP via HTTP/SSL (for example see Registries/Openprovider) - DNSSEC transactions - Registry sunrise, landrush and claims periods (draft-ietf-eppext-launchphase) - TMCH/TMDB CNIS retrieval examples with standard ICANN registrar message This code will provide you with a fully functional EPP client to connect to any registry world-wide that supports EPP. All code is organized in objects, so connecting to a new registry is just a matter of object re-use and extension. Sample registry connections are provided in the Registries directory. --- Currently supported registries: - SIDN (.nl) - dotAmsterdam - Donuts - EurID (.eu) - DNS Belgium (.be .vlaanderen .brussels) - .CO.NL - dotFRL - IIS (.nu and .se) - CarDNS (.hr) - Metaregistrar - Nic.AT (.at) - Key Systems RRPPROXY - .PT - Switch (.ch) - Openprovider - Ficora (.fi) - DNS.PT (.pt) - Norid (.no) - Arnes (.si) - Nic.lv (.lv) - SK-NIC (.sk) All code changes are tested automatically with the phpunit tests in the Tests directory Example scipts in the main directory: FileDescriptioncheckdomain.phpCheck one domain name.timeddomaincheck.phpCheck multiple domain names and check how fast the registry is.registerdomain.phpRegister a domain name.changepassword.phpChange EPP password.infodomain.phpGet information on a domain name.modifydomain.phpUpdate a domain name with new info.createcontact.phpCreate a contact object.updatecontact.phpUpdate contact details of a created contact object.createdomain.phpRegister a domain name in general availability phase.signdomain.phpDNSSEC sign a domain name.poll.phpList registry poll messages and confirm a message.checklaunchdomain.phpCheck domain name in 'claims' phase of draft-ietf-eppext-launchphase and check if the domain is free.createlaunchdomain.phpRegister domain name in 'claims' phase of draft-ietf-eppext-launchphase.checktmchdomain.phpCheck domain name in the 'claims' phase and check if the domain has a claim and retrieve the cnis info from the TMCH.test-claim.phpConnect to the TMCH test service and retrieve the list of domain names, query cnis info and display icann std warning msg.createclaimeddomain.phpCreate domain name that has a tmch claim in the claims phase of the launch.How to use this repository -------------------------- [](#how-to-use-this-repository) 1. Check out the latest version from github. (Or `composer require metaregistrar/php-epp-client`) 2. Use the `Examples/checkdomain.php` and create a connection to your favorite registry (for example `new Metaregistrar\EPP\metaregEppConnection()`). 3. Create a `settings.ini` in with the following contents: ``` interface=eppConnection hostname=ssl://epp-ote.metaregistrar.com port=7000 userid=xxxxxxxx password=xxxxxxxxx logging=true certificatefile=/home/xxxxxx/xxxxxxx.pem certificatekey=/home/xxxxxx/xxxxxxx.key certificatepassword=xxxxxxx verifypeer=true/false verifypeername=true/false allowselfsigned=true/false ``` 4. Now, `checkdomain.php` should be functioning and checking domains. **If** you do not want to use `settings.ini` files in the Registries directory, you can create a connection as follows: `$conn = Metaregistrar\EPP\eppConnection::create('path-to-settings.ini');` Or set all parameters individually: ``` $conn = new Metaregistrar\EPP\eppConnection(); $conn->setHostname('ssl://epp-ote.metaregistrar.com'); // Hostname may vary depending on the registry selected $conn->setPort(7000); // Port may vary depending on the registry selected $conn->setUsername('xxxxxxxx'); $conn->setPassword('xxxxxxxxx'); ``` ### Health Score 63 — FairBetter than 99% of packages Maintenance71 Regular maintenance activity Popularity53 Moderate usage in the ecosystem Community40 Growing community involvement Maturity77 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 75.1% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
