Token Generator for Edgecast Token-Based Authentication

Token-Based Authentication safeguards against hotlinking by adding a token requirement to requests for content secured by it. This token, which must be defined in the request URL's query string, defines the criteria that must be met before the requested content may be served via the CDN. This repository contains the following token generation resources:

• Linux binaries and Windows executable

Functions

Encrypt(key string, params string, verbose bool)
Decrypt(key string, token string, verbose bool)

Install

First use "go get" to install the latest version of the library.

$ go get github.com/VerizonDigital/ectoken-go

Example

import "github.com/VerizonDigital/ectoken-go/v3"

// encrypt
token, err := v3.Encrypt("keyvalue", "ec_expire=1257642471&ec_clientip=11.22.33.1", false)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

// decrypt
params, err := v3.Decrypt("keyvalue", token, false)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
