PHP-Fernet

Fernet-PHP implementation of the Fernet token specification in PHP. This is a fork of Kelvinmo implementation at fernet-php with some improvements:

• Drop supporting old PHP versions
• Exception base for error handling
• Support msgpack wrapper to reduce token size
• Key rotation (TBD)

Requirements

• PHP 5.6 or later
• hash extension
• openssl or mcrypt extension
• mbstring.func_overload needs to be switched off in php.ini

Installation

You can install via Composer.

{
    "require": {
        "webonyx/php-fernet": "dev-master"
    }
}

Usage

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use Fernet\Fernet;
use Fernet\InvalidTokenException;

$key = '[Base64url encoded fernet key]'; // or $key = Fernet::generateKey();
$fernet = new Fernet($key); // or new FernetMsgpack($key);

$token = $fernet->encode('string message');

try {
    $message = $fernet->decode('fernet token');
} catch (InvalidTokenException $exception) {
    echo 'Token is not valid';
}
?>
