Chilkat.AuthAzureSAS
Generate a signed query-string token that authorizes limited access to an
Azure Storage resource.
Provide the exact Azure SAS string-to-sign required for the storage
service and resource being accessed.
Use the Azure Storage account access key to compute the signature placed
in the generated SAS token.
Add signed SAS parameters such as permissions, expiry, resource type, API
version, protocol, or IP restrictions.
Add query parameters that should accompany the request but should not be
included as part of the SAS token itself.
Use the generated SAS query string with Azure Storage requests built
using
For an extended overview, see
AuthAzureSAS Class Overview.
Create Azure Shared Access Signature tokens for signed Azure Storage requests.
Chilkat.AuthAzureSAS creates Azure Shared Access Signature
authentication tokens. It defines the SAS string-to-sign, supplies the Azure
Storage account access key used to compute the signature, and controls which
parameters are included in the generated SAS token query string. The
resulting token can be used with Chilkat.Rest,
Chilkat.Http, or other request-building code that needs
time-limited, permission-scoped access to Azure Storage resources.

REST integration
Chilkat.Rest or other Chilkat HTTP workflows.
AuthAzureSAS object, set the Azure Storage
AccessKey, provide the required StringToSign, add
SAS token parameters with SetTokenParam, add any extra query
parameters with SetNonTokenParam, then call
GenerateToken. Use AuthAzureSAS when you need a SAS
query token; use Chilkat.AuthAzureStorage when you need Shared
Key authorization headers instead.
Object Creation
use Chilkat2\AuthAzureSAS;
try {
$authAzureSAS = new AuthAzureSAS();
// ... use $authAzureSAS ...
} catch (\Chilkat2\Exception $e) {
echo $e->getClass(), '::', $e->getMethod(), " failed\n";
echo $e->getMessage(), "\n"; // the LastErrorText of the failed call
}Creates the object. The optional array sets properties in order, as if assigned one by one (new AuthAzureSAS(['VerboseLogging' => true, 'RaiseError' => false])); an unknown or read-only name throws Error. The class is defined by the chilkat2 extension (extension=chilkat2 in php.ini): there is no PHP file to include.
There is no close(): PHP frees the object when its last reference goes (unset($authAzureSAS), $authAzureSAS = null, or the end of the function or request). Objects returned by methods are independent and freed the same way. The class may be extended (class MyAuthAzureSAS extends \Chilkat2\AuthAzureSAS); objects cannot be cloned or serialized.
When true (the default), a method that fails throws Chilkat2\Exception. When false, it returns false (or null) instead, and the reason is in LastErrorText. Objects returned by a method inherit the value of the object that returned them.
Errors
Chilkat2\Exception extends RuntimeException: getMessage() is the failed call's full LastErrorText, getClass() its class ('Chilkat2\AuthAzureSAS') and getMethod() the method name. The object remains usable. Methods that look something up and find nothing return null without throwing (each such method says so), methods that answer a question (HasMember, IsUnlocked, ...) return a plain bool, and property reads and writes do not throw for Chilkat reasons.
Misuse always throws, whatever RaiseError is: a wrong argument type is a TypeError (exact types under declare(strict_types=1)), a missing or extra argument an ArgumentCountError, a string containing a NUL byte or an out-of-range integer a ValueError, and an unknown property (properties are case-sensitive) or a write to a read-only one an Error. Named arguments work with the parameter names shown.
Strings are passed and returned as UTF-8; binary data is a PHP string of bytes. Unlocking: call (new \Chilkat2\GlobalSettings())->UnlockBundle('...') once at startup.
Properties
AccessKey
This is the signing key (access key) that must be kept private. It is a base64 string such as abdTvCZFFoWUyre6erlNN+IOb9qhXgDsyhrxmZvpmxqFDwpl9oD0X9Fy0hIQa6L5UohznRLmkCtUYySO4Y2eaw==
DebugLogFilePath
If set to a file path, this property logs the LastErrorText of each Chilkat method or property call to the specified file. This logging helps identify the context and history of Chilkat calls leading up to any crash or hang, aiding in debugging.
Enabling the VerboseLogging property provides more detailed information. This property is mainly used for debugging rare instances where a Chilkat method call causes a hang or crash, which should generally not happen.
Possible causes of hangs include:
- A timeout property set to 0, indicating an infinite timeout.
- A hang occurring within an event callback in the application code.
- An internal bug in the Chilkat code causing the hang.
LastErrorHtml
Provides HTML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.
topLastErrorText
Provides plain text information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.
LastErrorXml
Provides XML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.
topLastMethodSuccess
Indicates the success or failure of the most recent method call: true means success, false means failure. This property remains unchanged by property setters or getters. This method is present to address challenges in checking for null or Nothing returns in certain programming languages. Note: This property does not apply to methods that return integer values or to boolean-returning methods where the boolean does not indicate success or failure.
StringToSign
Defines the format of the string to sign.
The format is specified as a comma-separated list of names. For example:
signedpermissions,signedstart,signedexpiry,canonicalizedresource,signedidentifier,signedIP,signedProtocol,signedversion,rscc,rscd,rsce,rscl,rsctThis will result in an actual string-to-sign that is composed of the values for each name separated by newline (LF) chars. For example:
signedpermissions +\n+ signedstart +\n+ signedexpiry +\n+ canonicalizedresource +\n+ signedidentifier +\n+ signedIP +\n+ signedProtocol +\n+ signedversion +\n+ rscc +\n+ rscd +\n+ rsce +\n+ rscl +\n+ rsct
VerboseLogging
If set to true, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is false. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

Methods
Clear
Clears all params set by the methods SetNonTokenParam and SetTokenParam.
topGenerateToken
Generates and returns the SAS token based on the defined StringToSign and params.
On failure it throws Chilkat2\Exception (or, with RaiseError set to false, returns null). $e->getMessage() (or the object's LastErrorText) explains why, and the object remains usable.
SetNonTokenParam
Adds a non-token parameter name/value. This is a value that is included in the string to sign, but is NOT included in the token query params.
Returns true on success. On failure it throws Chilkat2\Exception (or, with RaiseError set to false, returns false). $e->getMessage() (or the object's LastErrorText) explains why, and the object remains usable.
SetTokenParam
Adds a token parameter name/value. This is a value that is included in the string to sign, and is also included in the token query params.
Returns true on success. On failure it throws Chilkat2\Exception (or, with RaiseError set to false, returns false). $e->getMessage() (or the object's LastErrorText) explains why, and the object remains usable.
