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.

API Key Authorization for Laravel with replay attack prevention
Installation
How it works?
Both sides (i.e. client and server) have a secret key. Client calculates a token - hash value for concatenated secret key and current timestamp. The Token and the timestamp are sent with request to server as separate HTTP headers. Server recalculates hash value and validates the token by comparing it with this value and by checking that received timestamp belongs to current time ± window interval.
