Laravel Installer - License Verification

This package adds license verification to Laravel Installer. It validates purchase codes via your API before allowing installation to proceed.

To learn all about it, head over to the extensive documentation.

Here's what you can do:

// Set your license API endpoint
LICENSE_API_URL=https://api.yoursite.com/verify

The package automatically verifies licenses:

// User enters license key
// Package calls your API
// On success: Installation continues
// On failure: Shows error message

Your API receives the license data:

{
    "license_key": "XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX",
    "email": "user@example.com",
    "domain": "customer-site.com"
}

Return verification result:

{
    "success": true,
    "message": "License verified successfully",
    "data": {
        "license_type": "professional",
        "expires_at": "2025-12-31"
    }
}

The verified license is stored in the database after installation completes.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require olakunlevpn/laravel-installer-license

Create the licenses table migration:

php artisan make:migration create_licenses_table

Configure your license API endpoint:

LICENSE_API_URL=https://api.yoursite.com/verify
LICENSE_STEP_POSITION=2

That's it! The license verification step will appear in your installer.

You can find the full installation instructions in our documentation.
