Version:1.2.0

This is a fork of theoriginal repo after it was announced that the GitHub-version is no longer maintained by Threema.As this is the community version of the Threema Gateway PHP SDK it may contain additional changes which are not yet included in the official downloadable version on the Threema website. If you are looking for a simple mirror of the downloadable Threema version you can switch to the branchofficial.
More information is avaliable inthe wiki.

An automatically created documentation of this SDK can be foundon GitHub Pages.

The contributors of this repository are not affiliated with Threema or the Threema GmbH.

• Install PHP 5.4 or later:https://secure.php.net/manual/en/install.php

• For better encryption performance, install thelibsodium PHP extension.

  This step is optional; if the libsodium PHP extension is not available, the SDK will automatically fall back to (slower) pure PHP code for ECC encryption (file and image sending not supported).

  A 64bit version of PHP is required for pure PHP encryption.

  To install the libsodium PHP extension:

  pecl install libsodium

  Then add the following line to your php.ini file:

  extension=libsodium.so

If you want to check whether your server meets the requirements and everything is configured properly you can executethreema-msgapi-tool.php without any parameters on the console or point your browser to the location where it is saved on your server.

If you want to use this library in your own product it is recommend to useComposer and requirerugk/threema-msgapi-sdk-php.

useThreema\MsgApi\Connection;useThreema\MsgApi\ConnectionSettings;useThreema\MsgApi\Receiver;require_once('lib/bootstrap.php');//define your connection settings$settings =newConnectionSettings('*THREEMA','THISISMYSECRET');//simple php file to store the public keys (this file must already exist)$publicKeyStore =newThreema\MsgApi\PublicKeyStores\PhpFile('/path/to/my/keystore.php');//create a connection$connector =newConnection($settings,$publicKeyStore);

Attention: These settings change internal values of the TLS connection. Choosing wrong settings can weaken the TLS connection or prevent a successful connection to the server. Use them with care!

Each of the additional options shown below is optional. You can leave it out or usenull to use the default value determinated by cURL for this option.

useThreema\MsgApi\Connection;useThreema\MsgApi\ConnectionSettings;useThreema\MsgApi\Receiver;require_once('lib/bootstrap.php');//define your connection settings$settings =newConnectionSettings('*THREEMA','THISISMYSECRET',null,//the host to be used, set to null to use the default (recommend)    ['forceHttps' =>true,//set to true to force HTTPS, default: false'tlsVersion' =>'1.2',//set the version of TLS to be used, default: null'tlsCipher' =>'ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384'//choose a cipher or a list of ciphers, default: null        'pinnedKey' => 'sha256//8SLubAXo6MrrGziVya6HjCS/Cuc7eqtzw1v6AfIW57c=;sha256//8kTK9HP1KHIP0sn6T2AFH3Bq+qq3wn2i/OJSMjewpFw=' // the hashes to pin, the default is shown here, it is NOT recommend to change this value!    ]);//simple php file to store the public keys (this file must already exist)$publicKeyStore =newThreema\MsgApi\PublicKeyStores\PhpFile('/path/to/my/keystore.php');//create a connection$connector =newConnection($settings,$publicKeyStore);

If you want to get a list of all ciphers you can use have a look at theSSLLabs scan, at the list of all availableOpenSSL ciphers and thecomparison table by Mozilla which also has some suggestions for good ciphers you should use.

Note: ForpinnedKey to work you must install cURL 7.39 or higher. It is also recommend to use PHP 7.0.7 or higher if you want to support this feature, but it is not required.You can test whether it works by specifying an invalid pin.

threema-msgapi-tool.php -e <privateKey> <publicKey>

Encrypt standard input using the given sender private key and recipient public key. Two lines to standard output: first the nonce (hex), and then the box (hex).

threema-msgapi-tool.php -D <privateKey> <publicKey> <nonce>

Decrypt standard input using the given recipient private key and sender public key. The nonce must be given on the command line, and the box (hex) on standard input. Prints the decrypted message to standard output.

threema-msgapi-tool.php -h -e <email>

Hash an email address for identity lookup. Prints the hash in hex.

threema-msgapi-tool.php -h -p <phoneNo>

Hash a phone number for identity lookup. Prints the hash in hex.

threema-msgapi-tool.php -g <privateKeyFile> <publicKeyFile>

Generate a new key pair and write the private and public keys to the respective files (in hex).

threema-msgapi-tool.php -d <privateKey>

Derive the public key that corresponds with the given private key.

threema-msgapi-tool.php -s <threemaId> <from> <secret>

Send a message from standard input with server-side encryption to the given ID.<from> is the API identity and<secret> is the API secret. the message ID on success.

threema-msgapi-tool.php -S <threemaId> <from> <secret> <privateKey>

Nice to see you want to contribute. We may periodically send patches to Threema to make it possible for them to implement them in the official SDK version.
