The SSLChecker library is a PHP class that allows you to check the expiry date of an SSL certificate for a given domain. It uses an SSL connection to retrieve the SSL certificate information and parses the valid from and valid until timestamps into human-readable date strings.
To use the SSLChecker library, follow these steps:
- install sslchecker in your project.
composer require tal7aouy/sslchecker
- Include the SSLChecker.php file in your PHP code:
require __DIR__ . "/vendor/autoload.php";
- Create an instance of the SSLChecker class:
use Tal7aouy\SSLChecker\SSLChecker;
$checker = new SSLChecker();
- Call the checkExpiry method with the domain you want to check:
$expiryDates = $checker->checkExpiry('example.com');
The checkExpiry
method returns an array containing the valid from and valid until dates of the SSL certificate for the given domain:
Array
(
[valid_from] => 2022-01-01 00:00:00
[valid_until] => 2023-01-01 00:00:00
)
If there is an error connecting to the domain or parsing the SSL certificate, the method will throw an exception.
Here's an example of how to use the SSLChecker library in a PHP script:
$checker = new SSLChecker();
try {
$expiryDates = $checker->checkExpiry('example.com');
echo 'SSL certificate for example.com is valid from ' . $expiryDates['valid_from'] . ' to ' . $expiryDates['valid_until'] . PHP_EOL;
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo 'Error checking SSL certificate: ' . $e->getMessage() . PHP_EOL;
}
