openssl_sign
Generate signature
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.4, PHP 5)
bool openssl_sign ( string data, string &signature, mixed priv_key_id [, int signature_alg] )
openssl_sign() computes a signature for the specified data by using SHA1 for hashing followed by encryption using the private key associated with priv_key_id. Note that the data itself is not encrypted.
Parameters
- data
- signature
If the call was successful the signature is returned in signature.
- priv_key_id
- signature_alg
Defaults to
OPENSSL_ALGO_SHA1. For more information see the list of Signature Algorithms.
Examples
Example 1677. openssl_sign() example
<?php
// $data is assumed to contain the data to be signed
// fetch private key from file and ready it
$fp = fopen("/src/openssl-0.9.6/demos/sign/key.pem", "r");
$priv_key = fread($fp, 8192);
fclose($fp);
$pkeyid = openssl_get_privatekey($priv_key);
// compute signature
openssl_sign($data, $signature, $pkeyid);
// free the key from memory
openssl_free_key($pkeyid);
?>
