If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages.

Informations about the package authorizer

Legal Things - Authorizer

With the authorizer library, a webservice can generate an access token for a resource. The library uses public key cryptography to encrypt the access token. This means it can only be used by a system that has the private decryption key to get access to the resource.

Requirements

Required PHP extensions are marked by composer

Installation

The library can be installed using composer.

composer require legalthings/authorizer

How it works

System A has a resource which requires authorization. It will only allow system B access to the resource. Clients are allowed to use the resource, but don't have direct access to it. A client using both system A and system B, wants system A to share a specific resource with system B.

Upon request by the client, system A will generate an access token for the resource. It download the public encryption key of system B and uses it to encrypt the access token. This encrypted token returned to the client.

The client passes the link to the resource and the encrypted token to system B. Sytem B will decrypt the encrypted token and use it to download the resource.

Example

System A (has resources)

System B (can download and use resources)

Client

Why is this useful?

This is a way to allow two systems to share resources between them, with minimal coupling.

System B can use any PDF on the internet. By implementing Authorizer it gives services that want to share a resource only with system B the means to do so.
