Description
-----------

[](#description)

This package currently implements a client for the RFC1413 (IDENT) protocol. I don't currently have plans to add a server, but making one would be trivial.

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

[](#installation)

Install this package via composer:

```
composer require tigron/ident

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Very simple:

```
$ident = new Tigron\Ident\IdentClient();
echo $ident->getUser();
echo $ident->getOsType();

```

Optionally, you can

The constructor accepts some options as well:

```
$ident = new Tigron\Ident\IdentClient($remote_address, $remote_port, $local_port, $ident_port, $timeout);

```

Some setters are provided, for your convenience:

```
$ident->setRemoteAddress($remote_address);
$ident->setRemotePort($remote_port);
$ident->setLocalPort($local_port);
$ident->setIdentPort($ident_port);
$ident->setTimeout($timeout);

```
