Php Generate Random Api Key

The first thing you need to do is generate your public/private key pair. This can be done in PHP but the little documentation I could find about the process only worked in PHP 5.3.0 or greater and I happen to be using a slightly older version. In the case of randomUUID, the API docs specifically state that it uses a 'cryptographically strong pseudo random number generator'. So that particular implementation is secure for a 128-bit API key. So that particular implementation is secure for a 128-bit API key. Arrayrand — Pick one or more random keys out of an array. I suppose there is a flaw in the pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) that php uses; somehow the generation has a frequency of 31 (when a random number is sufficiently low, then the 31st after it will be more higher).

When your application is required to generate very simple random character sequences like those enumerated above. Jan 26, 2017 Keygen is a PHP package for generating simple random character sequences of any desired length and it ships with four generators, namely: numeric, alphanumeric, token and bytes. It has a very simple interface and supports method chaining - making it possible to generate simple random keys with just one line of code. The Keygen package can save you some time trying to implement a custom random generation mechanism for your application.

Php Generate Random Alphanumeric String

A random API key generator to server as access restriction to AP


I have created a restful API for a hosted service. To restrict indiscriminate access to the API, each client must submit an API key to be authenticated. I need a nice PHP class for this if any.

i am using this currently to generate a unique license try to edit it to your needs

function UniqueLicense(){

$Block1 = substr(uniqid(), 8, 5);

$TimeArray = explode('.', microtime()); $TimeArray2 = explode(' ', $TimeArray[1]); $TimeArray3 = sha1(base_convert($TimeArray2[0] . $TimeArray2[1], 10, 16)); $Block2 = substr($TimeArray3, 5, 5);

$Sub1 = sha1(substr($TimeArray3, 10, 5)); $Sub2 = substr($Sub1,rand(0, strlen($Sub1) - 5),rand(0, strlen($Sub1) - 5) + 5); $Block3 = substr($Sub2, 0, 5);

$Block4 = substr(rand(),0,5);

    You are not recommending a package class.

Example for an API Key generator written in PHP. The key that is generated will be 32 non-cryptographic random characters long, and can contain 0-9, a-z (lowercase), A-Z (uppercase). Adding the option for the characters to repeat, creates over 450 quadrillion combinations.

Php Generate Random Api Key Generator

To keep the code short, I generate a random number using rand(48, 122). This number will then be filtered for the ranges of 58 to 64, and 91 to 96. If the random number is present in the previous ranges, the number must be discarded and then recreated. This is done until a number is generated outside of the previous ranges, and this in turn must be completed 32 times. This is done so that the random number can convert into ASCII code (i.e. &#48 ; = 0, whitespace added the prevent conversion) to generate the characters mentioned above.

Another option would be to create a random number using rand(0, 61). Then using a switch statement append a string together based upon the result. This method results in code roughly 133 lines in length (excluding comments, but allowing whitespace), while the previous method is 27 lines in length (again excluding comments, but allowing whitespace).
