FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package escher
EscherPHP - HTTP request signing lib 
Escher helps you creating secure HTTP requests (for APIs) by signing HTTP(s) requests. It's both a server side and client side implementation. The status is work in progress.
The algorithm is based on Amazon's AWS Signature Version 4, but we have generalized and extended it.
More details will be available at our documentation site.
Signing a request
Escher works by calculating a cryptographic signature of your request, and adding it (and other authentication information) to said request. Usually you will want to add the authentication information to the request by appending extra headers to it. Let's say you want to send a signed POST request to http://example.com/ using the Guzzle\Http library:
Presigning an URL
In some cases you may want to send authenticated requests from a context where you cannot modify the request headers, e.g. when embedding an API generated iframe. You can however generate a presigned URL, where the authentication information is added to the query string.
Validating a request
You can validate a request signed by the methods described above. For that you will need a database of the access keys and secrets of your clients. Escher accepts any kind of object as a key database that implements the ArrayAccess interface. (It also accepts plain arrays, however it is not recommended to use a php array for a database of API secrets - it's just there to ease testing)
