OAuthProvider::generateTokenGenerate a random token

Açıklama

final public static OAuthProvider::generateToken(int $size, bool $strong = false): string

Generates a string of pseudo-random bytes.

Bağımsız Değişkenler

size

The desired token length, in terms of bytes.

strong

Setting to true means /dev/random will be used for entropy, as otherwise the non-blocking /dev/urandom is used. This parameter is ignored on Windows.

Dönen Değerler

The generated token, as a string of bytes.

Hatalar/İstisnalar

If the strong parameter is true, then an E_WARNING level error will be emitted when the fallback rand() implementation is used to fill the remaining random bytes (e.g., when not enough random data was found, initially).

Be careful when setting the 'strong' parameter to true.

If you system doesn't have enough entropy your script will block which can cause timeouts in other parts of your code.

In my case, the most serious symptom was my script blocking when trying to read from /dev/random and causing a 'MySQL has gone away' error.

Hopefully this saves someone the trouble when deciding to use /dev/random entropy
