  # LightOpenID Quick Start

  

  

  ## Sign-on with OpenID is a two step process:

    

    1. Step one is authentication with the provider:

  

       ```php

       $openid = new LightOpenID('my-host.example.org');

       

       $openid->identity = 'ID supplied by the user';

       

       header('Location: ' . $openid->authUrl());

       ```

  

       The provider then sends various parameters via GET, one of which is `openid_mode`.

   

    2. Step two is verification:

  

       ```php

       $openid = new LightOpenID('my-host.example.org');

       

       if ($openid->mode) {

         echo $openid->validate() ? 'Logged in.' : 'Failed!';

       }

       ```

  

  

  ### Notes:

  

    Change 'my-host.example.org' to your domain name. Do NOT use `$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']`

    for that, unless you know what you're doing.

       

    Optionally, you can set `$returnUrl` and `$realm` (or `$trustRoot`, which is an alias).

    The default values for those are:

  

    ```php

    $openid->realm = (!empty($_SERVER['HTTPS']) ? 'https' : 'http') . '://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];

    $openid->returnUrl = $openid->realm . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

    ```

  

    If you don't know their meaning, refer to any OpenID tutorial, or specification.

  

  

  ## Basic configuration options:

  

  <table>

    <tr>

      <th>name</th>

      <th>description</th>

    </tr>

    <tr>

      <td>identity</td>

      <td>

        Sets (or gets) the identity supplied by an user. Set it

        before calling authUrl(), and get after validate().

      </td>

    </tr>

    <tr>

      <td>returnUrl</td>

      <td>

        Users will be redirected to this url after they complete 

        authentication with their provider. Default: current url.

      </td>

    </tr>

    <tr>

      <td>realm</td>

      <td>

        The realm user is signing into. Providers usually say 

        "You are sgning into $realm". Must be in the same domain

        as returnUrl. Usually, this should be the host part of

        your site's url. And that's the default.

      </td>

    </tr>

    <tr>

      <td>required and optional</td>

      <td>

        Attempts to fetch more information about an user.

        See <a href="#common-ax-attributes">Common AX attributes</a>.

      </td>

    </tr>

    <tr>

      <td>verify_peer</td>

      <td>

        When using https, attempts to verify peer's certificate.

        See <a href="http://php.net/manual/en/function.curl-setopt.php">CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER</a>.

      </td>

    </tr>

    <tr>

      <td>cainfo and capath</td>

      <td>

        When verify_peer is true, sets the CA info file and directory.

        See <a href="http://php.net/manual/en/function.curl-setopt.php">CURLOPT_SSL_CAINFO</a>

        and <a href="http://php.net/manual/en/function.curl-setopt.php">CURLOPT_SSL_CAPATH</a>.

      </td>

    </tr>

  </table>

  

  

  ## AX and SREG extensions are supported:

  

    To use them, specify `$openid->required` and/or `$openid->optional` before calling

    `$openid->authUrl()`. These are arrays, with values being AX schema paths (the 'path'

    part of the URL). For example:

  

    ```php

    $openid->required = array('namePerson/friendly', 'contact/email');

    $openid->optional = array('namePerson/first');

    ```

  

    Note that if the server supports only SREG or OpenID 1.1, these are automaticaly mapped 

    to SREG names, so that user doesn't have to know anything about the server.

    To get the values, use `$openid->getAttributes()`.

  

  

  ### Common AX attributes

  

    Here is a list of the more common AX attributes (from [axschema.org](http://www.axschema.org/types/)):

  

    Name                    | Meaning

    ------------------------|---------------

    namePerson/friendly     | Alias/Username

    contact/email           | Email

    namePerson              | Full name

    birthDate               | Birth date

    person/gender           | Gender

    contact/postalCode/home | Postal code

    contact/country/home    | Country

    pref/language           | Language

    pref/timezone           | Time zone

  

    Note that even if you mark some field as required, there is no guarantee that you'll get any

    information from a provider. Not all providers support all of these attributes, and some don't

    support these extensions at all.

  

    Google, for example, completely ignores optional parameters, and for the required ones, it supports,

    according to [it's website](http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/OpenID.html):

  

    * namePerson/first (first name)

    * namePerson/last (last name)

    * contact/country/home

    * contact/email

    * pref/language
