🛠️ Helper Functions - Convenient global functions
📝 Full Logging - Optional CodeIgniter logging integration
⚡ Response Caching - Automatic caching support
🔄 CodeIgniter 4.x - Full compatibility
✨ NEW: State-Based Validation - Enterprise-grade state management
🛡️ NEW: Grace Period Support - 72-hour failover protection

📊 NEW: API Response Codes - Standardized error handling

🆕 What's New in v2.0

The CodeIgniter SDK has been hardened with enterprise-grade features:

State-Based Validation

Instead of raw API responses, use typed LicenseState objects:

helper('getkeymanager');

$state = resolve_license_state($key);

if ($state->isActive()) {
    // License is fully active
} elseif ($state->isInGracePeriod()) {
    // Grace period - network issues
} else {
    // Invalid
}

Grace Period Protection

Automatic 72-hour grace period when API is unreachable:

Prevents service disruption from network issues
Cached licenses remain valid temporarily
Configurable duration

Enhanced Error Handling

use GetKeyManager\CodeIgniter\Core\ApiResponseCode;
use GetKeyManager\CodeIgniter\Core\LicenseException;

try {
    $state = resolve_license_state($key);
} catch (LicenseException $e) {
    $code = $e->getApiCode();
    $name = $e->getApiCodeName();
    $message = ApiResponseCode::getMessage($code);
}

New State-Based Helpers

// Check license status
is_license_active($key);
is_license_in_grace_period($key);

// Feature checking
can_use_feature($key, 'premium_reports');

// State management
$state = get_license_state($key);  // Get cached state
clear_license_state($key);          // Clear cache

👉 See HARDENING_COMPLETE.md for full documentation

✅ 100% Backward Compatible - All existing code continues to work!

Requirements

PHP 7.4 or higher
CodeIgniter 4.0 or higher
ext-json, ext-openssl, ext-curl

Installation

Install via Composer:

composer require getkeymanager/codeigniter-sdk

Configuration

Copy the configuration file to your app/Config directory:

cp vendor/getkeymanager/codeigniter-sdk/src/Config/GetKeyManager.php app/Config/

Edit app/Config/GetKeyManager.php:

<?php

namespace Config;

use GetKeyManager\CodeIgniter\Config\GetKeyManager as BaseGetKeyManager;

class GetKeyManager extends BaseGetKeyManager
{
    public string $apiKey = 'your-api-key-here';
    public string $baseUrl = 'https://api.getkeymanager.com';
    public string $environment = 'production';
    public bool $verifySignatures = true;
    public ?string $publicKey = '-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
...
-----END PUBLIC KEY-----';
    
    // ... other settings
}

Using Environment Variables

You can also use .env file:

LICENSE_MANAGER_API_KEY=your-api-key-here
LICENSE_MANAGER_BASE_URL=https://api.getkeymanager.com
LICENSE_MANAGER_ENVIRONMENT=production
LICENSE_MANAGER_VERIFY_SIGNATURES=true
LICENSE_MANAGER_PUBLIC_KEY="-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----\n...\n-----END PUBLIC KEY-----"

And load them in config:

public string $apiKey;

public function __construct()
{
    parent::__construct();
    $this->apiKey = getenv('LICENSE_MANAGER_API_KEY');
}

Quick Start

Using the Library

<?php

namespace App\Controllers;

use GetKeyManager\CodeIgniter\Libraries\GetKeyManagerLibrary;

class License extends BaseController
{
    private GetKeyManagerLibrary $getkeymanager;

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->getkeymanager = new GetKeyManagerLibrary();
    }

    public function validate()
    {
        $licenseKey = $this->request->getPost('license_key');
        
        $result = $this->getkeymanager->validateLicense($licenseKey, [
            'hardwareId' => $this->getkeymanager->generateHardwareId()
        ]);

        if ($result['success']) {
            return $this->response->setJSON([
                'status' => 'valid',
                'data' => $result['data']
            ]);
        } else {
            return $this->response->setJSON([
                'status' => 'invalid',
                'message' => $result['message']
            ], 400);
        }
    }
}

Using Helper Functions

<?php

namespace App\Controllers;

class Dashboard extends BaseController
{
    public function index()
    {
        // Load the helper
        helper('getkeymanager');
        
        $licenseKey = session()->get('license_key');
        
        // Simple validation check
        if (!is_license_valid($licenseKey)) {
            return redirect()->to('/license-required');
        }
        
        // Check feature
        if (is_feature_enabled($licenseKey, 'advanced-reports')) {
            $data['show_advanced_reports'] = true;
        }
        
        // Get full details
        $licenseDetails = get_license_details($licenseKey);
        $data['license'] = $licenseDetails['data'] ?? [];
        
        return view('dashboard', $data);
    }
}

Library Usage

Basic Operations

use GetKeyManager\CodeIgniter\Libraries\GetKeyManagerLibrary;

$license = new GetKeyManagerLibrary();

// Validate license
$result = $license->validateLicense('XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX');

// Activate license
$result = $license->activateLicense('XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX', [
    'hardwareId' => $license->generateHardwareId(),
    'name' => 'Production Server'
]);

// Deactivate license
$result = $license->deactivateLicense('XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX', [
    'hardwareId' => $license->generateHardwareId()
]);

// Check feature
$result = $license->checkFeature('XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX', 'premium-features');

Offline Validation

// Read offline license file
$offlineLicense = file_get_contents(WRITEPATH . 'licenses/offline.lic');

$result = $license->validateOfflineLicense($offlineLicense, [
    'hardwareId' => $license->generateHardwareId()
]);

Creating Licenses

$result = $license->createLicenseKeys(
    'product-uuid',
    'generator-uuid',
    [
        ['activation_limit' => 5, 'validity_days' => 365],
        ['activation_limit' => 1, 'validity_days' => 30]
    ],
    'customer@example.com'
);

foreach ($result['data']['licenses'] as $lic) {
    echo "Created: " . $lic['license_key'] . "\n";
}

        $licenseKey = session()->get('license_key');
        
        if (!$licenseKey || !is_license_valid($licenseKey)) {
            return redirect()->to('/license-required')
                ->with('error', 'Valid license required');
        }
        
        // Check specific feature if provided
        if ($arguments && is_feature_enabled($licenseKey, $arguments[0]) === false) {
            return redirect()->to('/upgrade-required')
                ->with('error', 'This feature requires an upgrade');
        }
    }

    public function after(RequestInterface $request, ResponseInterface $response, $arguments = null)
    {
        // Do nothing
    }
}

Register in app/Config/Filters.php:

public array $aliases = [
    'license' => \App\Filters\LicenseFilter::class,
];

Use in routes:

$routes->group('dashboard', ['filter' => 'license'], function($routes) {
    $routes->get('/', 'Dashboard::index');
    $routes->get('reports', 'Dashboard::reports', ['filter' => 'license:advanced-reports']);
});
