README

Protect your PHP code from being stolen. Deploy with no fear of not owning servers. This library compiles your PHP code to opcodes and removes code from all php files included in your project. All produced opcode files are saved on the server's filesystem and used by OPcache!

Before

index.php

<?php
use Illuminate\Contracts\Http\Kernel;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
define('LARAVEL_START', microtime(true));

After

index.php

<?php
//compiled by Cactus

index.php.bin

Useful Notes

• Your php files content will be replaced!!!!!!! Be sure you have copies on your development machine

• If you want to update a file after compilation. Replace the existing (empty file) with the updated one, and run PHP cactus again

• The opcodes should be served by the same interpreter which has created them.

• A good idea is to create docker images with your compiled app. Your could update your app by updating your docker image version

Install

Using Composer

composer require notihnio/php-cactus:^1.0

Add to your php.ini configuration
