bin/key-pair-generator

Generates a 2048-bit RSA public/private key pair to be used for license generation & validation

Note: Errors if provided file paths for public/private already exists

Output - public/private key in the location provided

Options: --publicKeyPath - path to store the public key --privateKeyPath - path to store the private key

Example Usage:

$ bin/key-pair-generator --publicKeyPath ~/.es_temp_license/pub.key --privateKeyPath ~/.es_temp_license/pri.key

Outputs the public key to ~/.es_temp_license/pub.key, private key to ~/.es_temp_license/pri.key

bin/license-generator

Generates a signed license given a licensing spec and keyPair location

Note: a license spec (see format below) can be provided in two ways, using --license allows for passing the spec as a string using --licenseFile allows passing in a file that has the license spec

Output - a signed license based on the provided license spec, private/public key location

Options: --license - license spec as a string (optional when --licenseFile is provided) --licenseFile - path to a license spec file (optional when --license is provided) --publicKeyPath - path to retrieve the public key --privateKeyPath - path to retrieve the private key

License Spec format:

{
    "licenses": [
        {
            "uid": STRING (optional, if not provided a random UUID is generated)
            "type": STRING (“trial” | “internal” | “subscription”),
            "subscription_type": STRING (“none” | “gold” | “silver” | “platinum”),
            "issued_to": STRING,
            "issuer": STRING,
            "issue_date": STRING (format: “YYYY-MM-DD”),
            "expiry_date": STRING (format: “YYYY-MM-DD”),
            "feature": STRING (“shield” | “marvel”),
            "max_nodes": INT
        },
        {
	    ...
        }
    ]
}

Example Usage:

# license spec file

$ cat license_spec.json
{
    "licenses": [
        {
            "type": "internal",
            "subscription_type": "none",
            "issued_to": "issuedTo",
            "issuer": "issuer",
            "issue_date": "2014-09-29",
            "expiry_date": "2015-08-29",
            "feature": "shield",
            "max_nodes": 1
        }
    ]
}

bin/verify-license

Verifies provided generated license(s) and outputs an effective licenses file

This tool can be used for the following:

  • ensure a given generated license is valid (has not been tampered with)
  • merge multiple licenses file for a customer into one effective licenses

Effective License: One licenses that only retains effective sub-licenses for all the licenses provided. Where effective sub-licenses are identified as the sub-licenses with the latest expiry_date for a feature and the sub-license has not already expired.

Output - an effective license of all the provided generated license file(s)

Options: --licensesFiles - a set of generated licenses files separated by : --licenses - a generated licenses as string (multiple licenses could be inputted by repeating the parameter) --publicKeyPath - path to retrieve the public key

Example Usage:

# the output will be the same as the content of gen_license.json (as all the licenses are valid and not expired)
# in order to merge multiple licenses file use --licensesFiles file1.json:file2.json

$ bin/verify-license --publicKeyPath ~/.es_temp_license/pub.key --licensesFiles gen_license.json

# example using verify-license with multiple licenses json as string 
$ bin/verify-license --publicKeyPath ~/.es_temp_license/pub.key --licenses `cat generated_license1.json` --licenses `cat generated_license2.json`

Workflow

A public/private key pair has to be generated before license generation


# store public/private key pair to PUBLIC_KEY_FILE_PATH and PRIVATE_KEY_FILE_PATH respectively
$ bin/key-pair-generator --publicKeyPath PUBLIC_KEY_FILE_PATH --privateKeyPath PRIVATE_KEY_FILE_PATH

License Generation


# generate a license for a requested feature for a customer with a LICENSE_SPEC (format shown above)
$ bin/license-generator --publicKeyPath PUBLIC_KEY_FILE_PATH --privateKeyPath PRIVATE_KEY_FILE_PATH --license LICENSE_SPEC > GENERATED_LICENSE

# check any existing valid licenses already issued to the customer from the data store; grab the last generated license file for the customer
# as EXISTING_LICENSE

# use verify-license to generate en EFFECTIVE_LICENSE for the customer for distribution
$ bin/verify-license --publicKeyPath PUBLIC_KEY_FILE_PATH --privateKeyPath PRIVATE_KEY_FILE_PATH --licenses GENERATED_LICENSE_STRING --licenses EXISTING_LICENSE_STRING > EFFECTIVE_LICENSE
