Extracted from [SimpleSAMLphp](http://www.simplesamlphp.org), used by [OpenConext](http://www.openconext.org). This library is a collaboration between [UNINETT](http://uninett.no) and [SURFnet](http://surfnet.nl). Before you use it ----------------- [](#before-you-use-it) **DO NOT USE THIS LIBRARY UNLESS YOU ARE INTIMATELY FAMILIAR WITH THE SAML2 SPECIFICATION.** If you are not familiar with the SAML2 specification and are simply looking to connect your application using SAML2, you should probably use [SimpleSAMLphp](http://www.simplesamlphp.org). While this library is tagged as stable it is currently not very developer friendly and it's API is likely to change significantly in the future. It is however a starting point for collaboration between parties. So let us know what you would like to see in a PHP SAML2 library. Note that the **HTTP Artifact Binding and SOAP client not work** outside of SimpleSAMLphp. Usage ----- [](#usage) - Install with [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md), add the following in your composer.json: ``` { "require": { "simplesamlphp/saml2": "0.1.*" } } ``` Then run `composer update`. - Provide the required external dependencies by extending and implementing the `SAML2_Compat_AbstractContainer`then injecting it in the ContainerSingleton (see example below). - Use at will. Example: ``` // Use Composers autoloading require 'vendor/autoload.php'; // Implement the Container interface (out of scope for example) require 'container.php'; SAML2_Compat_ContainerSingleton::setContainer($container); // Set up an AuthnRequest $request = new SAML2_AuthnRequest(); $request->setId(SAML2_Utils::generateId()); $request->setIssuer('https://sp.example.edu'); $request->setDestination('https://idp.example.edu'); // Send it off using the HTTP-Redirect binding $binding = new SAML2_HTTPRedirect(); $binding->send($request); ``` License ------- [](#license) This library is licensed under the LGPL license version 2.1.
