1. DESCRIPTION ==============

phpFob is a PHP implementation of the most excellent CocoaFob at http://github.com/gbd/cocoafob/.

phpFob can generate or decode CocoaFob compatible license codes. phpFob extends the use of CocoaFob and opens up the use of CocoaFob for licensing directly in FastSpring http://www.fastspring.com/, Shine http://github.com/tylerhall/Shine or others.

2. USAGE ========

The best way to get the latest version of the code is to clone the main Git repository:

git://github.com/jschilli/phpFob.git

licensekey.php has a test function - it illustrates the usage of the library

	$lic = make_license('product', 'User Name', 10);
	echo "$lic\n";
	if (verify_license('product', 'User Name', 10, $lic)) {
		echo "License IS Valid\n";
	} else {
		echo "License IS NOT valid\n";
	}

should result in something like this:

GAWAE-FAJYB-FRQ52-PJTD6-BXVTP-B56N4-QPL5M-PN2AC-CR2E2-5Z2DV-9746H-T3GJP-TANPE-BQLFA-6STE License IS Valid

Please DO NOT use the enclosed keys! They are for test purposes only.
