README

Sign PDF documents in Laravel with a flow like DocuSign, inside your own application and on your own storage. Store a document, invite signers by mail, let them sign through a secure link on a ready-made signing page, and get the PDF back with every signature stamped on it and a full audit trail.

It also ships a complete portal with login, dashboard, customer and document management, so a fresh Laravel installation works as a standalone signing system after composer require and php artisan migrate.

An independent open-source package, not affiliated with DocuSign.

Features

Fluent builder: Signer::document($path)->addSigner(…)->send() stores the PDF, creates the signers and mails the invitations
Signing page with a signature canvas, reached through a temporary signed link that expires
Stamping: once everyone has signed, every signature is placed on the PDF with FPDI; positions are percentages, so they work on any paper size
Audit trail of every step with IP address and user agent
Events SignerSigned and DocumentCompleted to hook your own follow-up in
Portal with login, dashboard, customers with contacts and document management, on by default and switchable off
Dutch translation of the portal and the signing page

Installation

composer require darvis/laravel-document-sign
php artisan migrate

Requires PHP 8.2+ with the GD extension and Laravel 11, 12 or 13. The portal logs in with a user from your application's users table; create one and open /portal. See Installation & configuration for publishing, every config key and the first portal user.

Usage

use Darvis\Signer\Facades\Signer;

$document = Signer::document(storage_path('contracts/contract.pdf'))
    ->title('Freelance agreement')
    ->addSigner('Alice Jansen', 'alice@example.com', page: 1, x: 10, y: 80)
    ->addSigner('Bob de Vries', 'bob@example.com', page: 1, x: 55, y: 80)
    ->send();

Every signer receives a mail with a temporary signed link to the signing page, draws a signature and confirms. When everyone has signed, the package stamps all signatures on the PDF, stores it on the configured disk and dispatches Darvis\Signer\Events\DocumentCompleted.

$document->refresh();

$document->status;          // DocumentStatus: Draft, Pending, Completed, Cancelled
$document->isFullySigned();
$document->signed_path;     // the final PDF on the configured disk
$document->auditEvents;     // document_created, invitation_sent, document_signed, document_completed

Positions are percentages of the page measured from the top left, so the same numbers work on any paper size. Set SIGNER_PORTAL_ENABLED=false to use the signing flow without the portal.

Laravel Boost

The package ships a Laravel Boost guideline with the rules that matter when writing code against it. Run php artisan boost:install, or php artisan boost:update --discover in a project that already uses Boost.

Development

composer test      # Pest
composer lint      # Pint, check only (composer format to fix)
composer analyse   # Larastan, level 8

GitHub Actions runs the tests on PHP 8.2 to 8.4 against Laravel 11, 12 and 13, with both the lowest and the latest allowed dependencies. See the changelog for release notes.
