(PHP ActiveX) Create XML Signature with External Data Reference

Demonstrates how to create an XML digital signature where the data is external. In this case, the data is a JPG file.

This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.69 or greater.

Chilkat ActiveX Downloads ActiveX for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Note: The php_com_dotnet.dll may need to be enabled inside of php.ini.

<?php

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// This example inserts an XML signature in the following XML:

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
// <abc>
//   <xyz>
//     <jpg>
//         <name>starfish.jpg</name>
//         <url>https://www.chilkatsoft.com/images/starfish.jpg</url>
//     </jpg>
//   </xyz>
// </abc>

// The above XML is available at https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampleData/addSignatureToThis.xml
// First fetch the XML:

$url = 'https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampleData/addSignatureToThis.xml';
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Http')
$http = new COM("Chilkat.Http");
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.StringBuilder')
$sbXml = new COM("Chilkat.StringBuilder");
$success = $http->QuickGetSb($url,$sbXml);
if ($success != 1) {
    print $http->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// We'll use an RSA private key for signing.  
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.PrivateKey')
$rsaKey = new COM("Chilkat.PrivateKey");
$success = $rsaKey->LoadPemFile('qa_data/rsa/rsaPrivKey_pkcs8.pem');
if ($success != 1) {
    print $rsaKey->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.XmlDSigGen')
$xmlSigGen = new COM("Chilkat.XmlDSigGen");

// Indicate were the Signature will be inserted:
$xmlSigGen->SigLocation = 'abc|xyz|jpg';

// Provide the RSA key to be used for signing:
$xmlSigGen->SetPrivateKey($rsaKey);

// Fetch the JPG image data.
$jpgUrl = 'https://www.chilkatsoft.com/images/starfish.jpg';
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.BinData')
$jpgData = new COM("Chilkat.BinData");
$success = $http->QuickGetBd($jpgUrl,$jpgData);
if ($success != 1) {
    print $http->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Add the external data reference:
$xmlSigGen->AddExternalBinaryRef($jpgUrl,$jpgData,'sha256','');

// Create the XML digital signature:
$success = $xmlSigGen->CreateXmlDSigSb($sbXml);
if ($success != 1) {
    print $xmlSigGen->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Examine the XML that now contains the Signature:
print $sbXml->getAsString() . "\n";

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
// <abc>
//   <xyz>
//     <jpg>
//         <name>starfish.jpg</name>
