// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// In order to sign your HTTP requests, you have to add 2 headers to the HTTP request: Digest: the digest of the request payload and Signature: the actual signature of the request. 

// POST /xs2a/customer-access-tokens HTTP/1.1
// Host: api.ibanity.com
// Content-Type: application/json
// Digest: SHA-512=z4PhNX7vuL3xVChQ1m2AB9Yg5AULVxXcg/SpIdNs6c5H0NE8XYXysP+DGNKHfuwvY7kxvUdBeoGlODJ6+SfaPg==
// Ibanity-Idempotency-Key: 61f02718-eeee-46e1-b5eb-e8fd6e799c2d
// Signature: keyId="62f02718-eeee-46e1-b5eb-e8fd6e799c2e",created=1599659223,algorithm="hs2019",headers="(request-target) host digest (created) ibanity-idempotency-key",signature="SjWJWbWN7i0...zsbM="
// 
// {"data":{"type":"customerAccessToken", "attributes":{"applicationCustomerReference":"15874569"}}}

// The payload (body) of the above HTTP request is the JSON.
// Build the JSON above.
// Use this online tool to generate code from sample JSON: 
// Generate Code to Create JSON
$json = new CkJsonObject();
$json->UpdateString('data.type','customerAccessToken');
$json->UpdateString('data.attributes.applicationCustomerReference','15874569');

$payload = $json->emit();
print 'payload = ' . $payload . "\n";

// Step 1: Build the (created) virtual header

$dtNow = new CkDateTime();
$dtNow->SetFromCurrentSystemTime();
$created = $dtNow->getAsUnixTimeStr(false);
print 'created = ' . $created . "\n";

// Step 2: Build the Digest header
$crypt = new CkCrypt2();
$crypt->put_HashAlgorithm('sha512');
$crypt->put_EncodingMode('base64');
$crypt->put_Charset('utf-8');

$sbDigestHdrValue = new CkStringBuilder();
$sbDigestHdrValue->Append('SHA-512=');
$sbDigestHdrValue->Append($crypt->hashStringENC($json->emit()));

print $sbDigestHdrValue->getAsString() . "\n";

// Step 3: Build the (request target) virtual header

// In order to build the signature you will need a virtual header named (request-target) (the parentheses are important). 
// The (request-target) is the string concatenation of the HTTP method (in lowercase) with the path and query parameters.
$request_target = 'post /xs2a/customer-access-tokens';

// Step 4: Build the signing string

// The signing string is the concatenation of the signed header names (in lowercase) and values separated by a LF.

// You must always sign the following headers: (request-target), host, (created), digest. 
// If used, you must also sign the authorization header and any ibanity-* headers, such as ibanity-idempotency-key. 

$sbSigningString = new CkStringBuilder();

$sbSigningString->AppendLine($created,false);
$sbSigningString->Append('ibanity-idempotency-key: ');
$idempotencyKey = $crypt->generateUuid();
$sbSigningString->Append($idempotencyKey);

// Step 5: Build the signed headers list

// To allow Ibanity to check the signed headers, you must provide a list of the header names. They should be lowercase and in the same order used to create the signing string. 
$signed_headers_list = '(request-target) host digest (created) ibanity-idempotency-key';

// Step 6: Build the Signature header

// This is where the real signing happens. The signature header is a combination of several sub-headers -
// 
//     keyId: the identifier for the application's signature certificate, obtained from the Developer Portal
//     algorithm: the digital signature algorithm used to generate the signature (must be hs2019)
//     headers: The list of HTTP headers created in step 5
//     signature: the Base64-encoded digital signature of the signing string created in step 4.
