What is HMAC-SHA authentication?

HMAC-SHA authentication allows you to implement very simple key / secret authentication for your API using hashed signatures.

Making a request

use PhilipBrown\Signature\Token;
use PhilipBrown\Signature\Request;

$data    = ['name' => 'Philip Brown'];
$token   = new Token('abc123', 'qwerty');
$request = new Request('POST', 'users', $data);

$auth = $request->sign($token);

$http->post('users', array_merge($auth, $data));

Authenticating a response

use PhilipBrown\Signature\Auth;
use PhilipBrown\Signature\Token;
use PhilipBrown\Signature\Guards\CheckKey;
use PhilipBrown\Signature\Guards\CheckVersion;
use PhilipBrown\Signature\Guards\CheckTimestamp;
use PhilipBrown\Signature\Guards\CheckSignature;
use PhilipBrown\Signature\Exceptions\SignatureException;

$auth  = new Auth('POST', 'users', $_POST, [
	new CheckKey,
	new CheckVersion,
	new CheckTimestamp,
	new CheckSignature
]);

$token = new Token('abc123', 'qwerty');

try {
    $auth->attempt($token);
}

catch (SignatureException $e) {
    // return 4xx
}
