PHP OpenID
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
This is the PHP OpenID library by JanRain, Inc. You can visit our
|
|
website for more information about this package and other OpenID
|
|
implementations and tools:
|
|
|
|
http://www.openidenabled.com/
|
|
|
|
GETTING STARTED
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
First, run the 'examples/detect.php' script either from the command
|
|
line or via the web. It will generate a report of any system
|
|
configuration changes necessary to run the library.
|
|
|
|
INSTALLATION
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
You will need PHP 4.3.0 or greater to use this library. We have
|
|
tested the library Linux on PHP 4.3.0, 4.4.1, 5.0.5, and 5.1.1. We
|
|
have tested the library on Windows XP on PHP 4.4.4.
|
|
|
|
Follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Install dependencies.
|
|
|
|
- Enable either the GMP extension or Bcmath extension. (GMP is
|
|
STRONGLY recommended because it's MUCH faster!) This is
|
|
required.
|
|
|
|
- Enable the CURL extension.
|
|
|
|
- If you plan to use SQLite, PostgreSQL, or MySQL to store OpenID
|
|
data, you'll need PEAR MDB2. You can install this by running this
|
|
as root:
|
|
|
|
# pear install MDB2
|
|
|
|
You'll also need to install and enable the appropriate PHP
|
|
database extension. Alternatively, you can store OpenID data on
|
|
the filesystem instead of using a relational database. Nothing
|
|
special is required for using the filesystem method.
|
|
|
|
- Install either the DOM or domxml PHP XML processing extension,
|
|
but not both (they are incompatible).
|
|
|
|
2. Copy the Auth/ directory into your PHP include path.
|
|
|
|
TESTING YOUR SETUP
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
You can use the example code to test your setup. To run the example
|
|
consumer or server, follow the instructions in the examples/README
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
USING THE API
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
The best way to get started using the API is to take a look at the
|
|
example consumer and server in the examples/ directory. See the
|
|
examples/README file for more details.
|
|
|
|
TROUBLESHOOTING
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
* If you're unable to use an OpenID URL with the library, you may want
|
|
to try using the discover tool (examples/discover.php). This tool
|
|
will perform OpenID discovery on the identifier and give a list of
|
|
discovered OpenID services and their types.
|
|
|
|
* On some systems, PHP basedir restrictions prevent web servers from
|
|
opening a source of randomness, such as /dev/urandom. If your PHP
|
|
OpenID library has trouble getting a satisfactory source of
|
|
randomness, check your Apache and PHP configurations to be sure that
|
|
the randomness source is in the list of allowed paths for the
|
|
"open_basedir" option.
|
|
|
|
* In some cases, bugs in the GMP math library will result in signature
|
|
validation errors when using this library. Since GMP is preferred
|
|
over bcmath (for performance), you will have to define
|
|
Auth_OpenID_BUGGY_GMP in your application *before* importing any of
|
|
the library code:
|
|
|
|
define('Auth_OpenID_BUGGY_GMP', true);
|
|
|
|
* Not all PHP installations support SSL. You can find out if yours
|
|
supports SSL by reading the "HTTP Fetching" section of the output of
|
|
"examples/detect.php." If your installation does not support SSL,
|
|
then https:// identity URLs and server URLs will not be supported by
|
|
the library. An attempt to use such an identity URL will be
|
|
equivalent to using an invalid OpenID. To enable SSL support,
|
|
recompile PHP with OpenSSL support or install the appropriate OpenSSL
|
|
module for your platform. If you are using CURL, CURL will need to be
|
|
built with OpenSSL support.
