BlackWall Auth SDK (PHP)

A distributable PHP SDK for integrating applications with BlackWall OAuth 2.1 and OpenID Connect.

This package provides:

• OAuth authorisation URL generation with PKCE (S256)
• Code-for-token exchange
• Refresh token exchange
• UserInfo retrieval
• UserInfo normalisation (email, privilege_level, role)
• Unified callback handling helper (handleCallback)
• Session helpers for state and code_verifier
• Typed API (AuthClient, TokenSet) and specific exception classes

Requirements

• PHP 8.1+
• cURL extension (ext-curl)

Installation

1. Install as a Composer package

If this repository is published and tagged:

composer require andydixon/blackwall-auth-sdk

2. Install from local path (during development)

In the consuming application's composer.json:

{
  "repositories": [
    {
      "type": "path",
      "url": "../test.dixon.cx"
    }
  ],
  "require": {
    "dixon/blackwall-auth-sdk": "*"
  }
}

Then run:

composer update andydixon/blackwall-auth-sdk

Quick start

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

session_start();

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use BlackWall\Auth\AuthClient;
use BlackWall\Auth\Config;

$config = Config::fromArray([
    'clientId' => 'your-client-id',
    'authorizeUrl' => 'https://blackwall.cx/oauth/authorize',
    'tokenUrl' => 'https://blackwall.cx/oauth/token',
    'userInfoUrl' => 'https://blackwall.cx/oauth/userinfo',
    'redirectUri' => 'https://your-app.example/callback.php',
    'scope' => 'openid profile email offline_access',
]);

$client = new AuthClient($config);

// Step 1: redirect user to provider
$auth = $client->buildAuthorisationUrl();
header('Location: ' . $auth['url']);
exit;

For callback handling, see docs/INTEGRATION_GUIDE.md.

Minimal callback example:

$result = $client->handleCallback($_GET);

$_SESSION['user'] = [
    'email' => $result->user->email,
    'privilege_level' => $result->user->privilegeLevel,
    'role' => $result->user->role,
];
$_SESSION['access_token'] = $result->tokens->accessToken;

Backwards compatibility

A wrapper class is retained for older integrations:

use BlackWallSDK\BlackWallAuth;

This wrapper now delegates to BlackWall\Auth\AuthClient.

Public API

• BlackWall\Auth\Config
• BlackWall\Auth\AuthClient
• BlackWall\Auth\TokenSet
• BlackWall\Auth\AuthResult
• BlackWall\Auth\CallbackResult
• BlackWall\Auth\UserInfo
• BlackWall\Auth\UserInfoNormalizer
• BlackWall\Auth\Http\HttpClientInterface
• BlackWall\Auth\Http\CurlHttpClient
• BlackWall\Auth\Exception\*

Security notes

• Always validate OAuth state in callback handlers.
• Always use HTTPS in production.
• Store refresh tokens securely.
• Keep access tokens out of logs and browser-visible output.
• Use short session lifetimes where possible.
