It currently *does* allow the following: - Updating of GSB lists to a MySQL database - Basic checking of URLs' against lists and then full-hash checks against the full GSB database - Caching of full-hash keys to minimise requests to the remote Google server At current it *does not* allow the following: - Requests using MAC keys (integrity checks) The main class is definitely not as efficient as it could be and has developed very quickly to meet the basic GSB specification; any contributions, bug fixes etc are **very** welcome! Download -------- [](#download) - Installation using composer ``` $ composer require samcleaver/phpgsb ``` - You could manually download phpgsb by this link: Installation ------------ [](#installation) 1. Enter database details into install.php (Replace DATABASE\_USERNAME, DATABASE\_NAME and DATABASE\_PASSWORD with respective information) 2. Run install.php 3. Look at listupdater.php and lookup.php example files for basic methods on using the system. 4. If you choose to use listupdater.php as-is then set it as a cron job/scheduled task to run every minute. *(It won't actually update every minute but is required incase of backoff procedures and timeouts)* FAQ --- [](#faq) - **When I do a lookup, phpGSB says the URL is safe but I know it's not.***The database is updated in chunks from Google's central server. Because of this, you need to run updates for 24 hours before you can start doing lookups, this is a limitation of the specification and not the implementation. (Check Step 5 of installation on how to ensure updates are running.)* License ------- [](#license) The phpGSB library is released under the New BSD License. ``` Copyright (c) 2010-2015, Sam Cleaver Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without modification, are permitted provided that the following conditions are met: * Redistributions of source code must retain the above copyright notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer. * Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution. * Neither the name of the organization nor the names of its contributors may be used to endorse or promote products derived from this software without specific prior written permission.
