Installation

composer require currencyfair/apple-sign-in-php-client

Configuration

See below for examples of passing config values.

Usage & Examples

Verifying an Authorisation Code and retrieving the access/refresh tokens

<?php

include './vendor/autoload.php';

use CurrencyFair\AppleId\ClientFactory;
use CurrencyFair\AppleId\Config;

$config = new Config(
    [
        Config::REDIRECT_URI => 'https://your-redirect.com/',
        Config::CLIENT_ID => 'XXX',
        Config::TEAM_ID => 'XXX',
        Config::KEY_ID => 'XXX',
        Config::PRIVATE_KEY => '/full/path/to/key' // Or a string containing your key
    ]
);

$client = ClientFactory::create($config);
$authCodeResponse = $client->verifyAuthCode($_POST['code']);

echo $authCodeResponse->getAccessToken();
echo $authCodeResponse->getExpiresIn();
echo $authCodeResponse->getRefreshToken();

See AuthCodeVerifyResponse for all available methods.

Verifying and Decoding Apple JWTs

<?php

include './vendor/autoload.php';

use CurrencyFair\AppleId\ClientFactory;
use CurrencyFair\AppleId\Config;

$config = new Config(
    [
        Config::REDIRECT_URI => 'https://your-redirect.com/',
        Config::CLIENT_ID => 'XXX',
        Config::TEAM_ID => 'XXX',
        Config::KEY_ID => 'XXX',
        Config::PRIVATE_KEY => '/full/path/to/key' // Or a string containing your key
    ]
);

$client = ClientFactory::create($config);
$jwtResponse = $client->verifyAndDecodeJwt($_POST['id_token']);

echo $jwtResponse->getEmail();
echo $jwtResponse->getSubject(); // Unique user ID provided by Apple
echo $jwtResponse->getIsPrivateEmail();
echo $jwtResponse->getDecodedTokenObject(); // The unmodified JWT object (Example format below)

See JwtVerifyResponse for all available methods.

Example Decoded JWT

{
  "iss": "https://appleid.apple.com",
  "aud": "com.yourApp.web",
  "exp": 1586606495,
  "iat": 1586605895,
  "sub": "000609.fac4e6e9df6a4c1988870f61b86e0b8e.0000",
  "at_hash": "XXX",
  "email": "example@example.com",
  "email_verified": "true",
  "is_private_email": "false",
  "auth_time": 1586605860,
  "nonce_supported": true
}

Generating an Authorisation URL for your Sign-In button

<?php

include './vendor/autoload.php';

use CurrencyFair\AppleId\ClientFactory;
use CurrencyFair\AppleId\Config;

$config = new Config(
    [
        Config::REDIRECT_URI => 'https://your-redirect.com/',
        Config::CLIENT_ID => 'XXX',
    ]
);

$client = ClientFactory::create($config);
$authorisationUrl = $client->getAuthoriseUrl();

echo "<a href='{$authorisationUrl}'> Sign-In With Apple</a>";

You can also use Apple's JS SDK to show Apple's pre-styled button. Using the above method is for when you would like more control over the style of the button.

End-to-End Sign-In page & Return Page

your-sign-in-page.php

<?php

include './vendor/autoload.php';

use CurrencyFair\AppleId\ClientFactory;
use CurrencyFair\AppleId\Config;

$config = new Config(
    [
        Config::REDIRECT_URI => 'https://example.com/your-return-page.php',
        Config::CLIENT_ID => 'XXX',
    ]
);

// We will use this to verify the request came from Apple on
// the return page
$_SESSION['state'] = 'Something Random';
 
$client = ClientFactory::create($config);
$authorisationUrl = $client->getAuthoriseUrl($_SESSION['state']);

echo "<a href='{$authorisationUrl}'> Sign-In With Apple</a>";

your-return-page.php

<?php

include './vendor/autoload.php';

use CurrencyFair\AppleId\ClientFactory;
use CurrencyFair\AppleId\Config;

$state    = $_POST['state'];
$code     = $_POST['code'];
$idToken  = $_POST['id_token'];
$user     = isset($_POST['user']) ? json_decode($_POST['user'], true) : null;

// Check if the state returned from Apple matches the state we passed to 
// Apple from the Sign-In button
if ($_SESSION['state'] !== $state) {
    throw new Exception('State is invalid');
}

// The user will be available the first time a user registers and *not* passed
// on subsequent Sign-Ins 
if ($user) {
    $fullName = $user['name']['firstName'] . ' ' . $user['name']['lastName'];
    $email = $user['email'];
}

$config = new Config(
    [
        Config::REDIRECT_URI => 'https://example.com/your-return-page.php',
        Config::CLIENT_ID => 'XXX',
        Config::TEAM_ID => 'XXX',
        Config::KEY_ID => 'XXX',
        Config::PRIVATE_KEY => '/full/path/to/key'
    ]
);

$client = ClientFactory::create($config);

$authCodeResponse = $client->verifyAuthCode($code);

echo $authCodeResponse->getAccessToken() . PHP_EOL;
echo $authCodeResponse->getExpiresIn() . PHP_EOL;
echo $authCodeResponse->getRefreshToken() . PHP_EOL;

$jwtResponse = $client->verifyAndDecodeJwt($idToken);

echo $jwtResponse->getEmail() . PHP_EOL;
echo $jwtResponse->getSubject() . PHP_EOL; // Unique user ID provided by Apple
echo $jwtResponse->getIsPrivateEmail() . PHP_EOL;

FAQ & Troubleshooting

I'm developing on localhost, how do I get the redirect URI to work correctly?

Unfortunately even during testing Apple doesn't allow using localhost or non-HTTPS redirect URLs. To get around this you can use a browser extension like Requestly to intercept the redirect and direct it to your localhost URL. You can also use a secure tunneling tool like Ngrok.

I'm getting an invalid_request - Invalid redirect_uri error

This usually occurs if your Redirect URI isn't configured for use in the Apple Developer area. Or the URI may be localhost or non-HTTPS.

I'm getting an Invalid Grant error when verifying my Authorisation Code

This usually means your token is expired or malformed. Apple's tokens have a 10 minute expiry, after this you will need to generate a new token.

How do I get the user's name from Apple?

Apple will only send the user's name the first time the user registers on your app. The payload is POSTed to the Redirect URI along with the authorisation code and the JWT token. The format will look like this:

{"name":{"firstName":"Dave","lastName":"Tester"},"email":"an@email.com"}

I would like the Sign-In to happen in a pop-up window

You can use Apple's JS SDK to achieve this.

I'm getting an Error processing private key error?

If you're passing the key as a string ensure the formatting is correct. An example of the correct way to pass the key:

$privateKey = <<<KEY
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
XIGTAgEAxBMGByqGSM49AgEGCCqGSM49AwEHBHkwdwIBAQQg4UQtxp926Ihaslco
k5Pl8Rb8h4GLav9INTdZA4dD6EmgCgYIKoZIzj0DAQehRANCAAQVRW9gj0lXdSfo
EQxtT6zytXXXg64dsb0SGFV2ceYYkvOpVnjXkPCOxSkoYHPhP7eZK65sWyjOiS9
dLRtRpJX
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----
KEY;

$config = new Config(
    [
        Config::PRIVATE_KEY => $privateKey,
    ]
);

Can the request to fetch Apple's public key be cached?

Yes, you can use Guzzle Middleware to handle caching. You can also inject your own cache enabled client which implements ClientInterface.
