- A step-by-step tutorial about how you can make and protect your own PHP desktop apps, how to add licensing features with hardware-locking. So that you can sell licenses of your PHP apps for Windows, make money and avoid piracy thanks to the ExeOutput for PHP and Obsidium software.
You have created a PHP website or a PHP application that you would like to distribute to your customers, market it and make money with it?
But, there is a big problem: a desktop application in PHP, HTML and JS has its source code accessible to everyone. Nothing then prevents anyone from copying, cracking or even rebranding your application…
This video shows a real working and afordable solution. Compiling your PHP and HTML code with ExeOutput for PHP will allow you to protect your PHP code as well as the other files (image, HTML, CSS and other assets…) composing your app against simple copy.
Applications created with ExeOutput for PHP are not simple “empty shells”. During compilation, ExeOutput for PHP compresses all the files making up your application; and it encrypts them before packaging them into a single executable file. Your files are secure and remain inaccessible to the end user. Of course, your PHP application will work perfectly.
We can combine ExeOutput for PHP and Obsidium to generate protected apps and sell licenses for them.
In the video, you can see how to turn a CodeIgniter-based PHP app into an executable with ExeOutput for PHP. Then, we add licensing features thanks to Obsidium, a great software protection tool.
We also use hardware-locking long license keys. Thus, customers can’t share their licenses with others. We show how to retrieve a system ID and generate activation codes.
This ensures that you will earn more money from selling your PHP apps, since hardware-locking reduces piracy.
It requires the two following software:
- ExeOutput for PHP, to make secure PHP desktop apps in EXE format from PHP and HTML websites. Link to download: www.exeoutput....
- Obsidium, to add licensing features to the EXE file. Link to download: www.obsidium.de
Download the source code of the PHP app sample in the video (exeoutput-obsidium package) and UserMain.txt file for free at www.exeoutput....
or with the ExeOutput’s Web Update utility.

hi, what about if the license created copy to other pc?
it will be work or automatic lock like without key ?
This doesn't protect against cloning the whole system, the hdd,mobo ids are stored in windows and not real time values.
Just ask the Obsidium author for a solution.
I am a serious buyer but I don't know how will it works for laravel and one more problem: is there any option to have a print preview to customize page setup like margins, scale, page size same as chrome print setup. if yes then can you make a video for us? we will pay you for video as well. or if direct you are helping us by remote access to make our application exe we will pay you for that.
One more question:
Does the source code of the project will be protected?
Thanks and best regards.
I hope we get your reply soon
obsidian api xml file not found?
how i can solve it?
Will it work with a live domain with Linux Server ????
I purchased Obsidium but in settings/advanced I don´t have the options "Control Overlay Access", "Alternate Controm Method", "Encrypt Overlays". At the end I wasn't able to protect the file because I got a message "Input file format is not supported". I have exeoutput for PHP and Obsidium but I'm not able to protect my app. Is there any update? Any suggestions?
please Marcos, where you able to resolve this "Input file format is not supported" issue, I am having same issue
@@tegaekoh7813 Yes I spent a lot of time on this issue. The problem was the Obsidium 64 bits. The 64 bits version is not compatible with EXE Output you have to get the 32 bits version.
i tried php mailer of ur sample but the cli just show and close..its stay not even for 1 sec how to use pause??? is there any way????to not auto off the console?
After having compiled your console app, under the log shown by ExeOutput, there is a button named "Open Command Prompt". Just click it and you'll have a console window. Then type the name of your EXE file (without .exe) and the console app is started. The console won't close and you'll see output.
I have Laravel Based Projects. Are there any tutorials for laravel framework? I just tried the same way as you explained but when I lunch/run it's showing me a white page, Nothing els. I think its supporting laravel; or maybe I will not able to do it.
if it's possible for laravel than please share with us its guide or tutorials Than we will go to your website and purchase.
Laravel apps can work too. There are some hints here: www.exeoutput.com/help/phpframeworks/#laravel We'll publish a Laraval sample in the future.
@@gdgsoftware almost 2 years passed but still you people didn't make any simple videos for laravel, hehe what an active company you are, you know batter now its time for laravel no one using simple core Php, but your Doc and tutorials are only for core Php.
how to make a single file no installation just a single file if not then it that secure enough,i wish i knew about recoding everything from the starting of the app until the end
For small PHP websites, you can create a single EXE file. Otherwise, you have to build an installer. There is a built-in feature to build single EXE installer files.
@@gdgsoftware merge files in to a single exe application ,run app,no installation,just run
can we make only exe file
support laravel?
Yes, a tutorial will be made available with the next release.
Can this be used with laravel environment ?
Yes, a tutorial will be made available with the next release.
