License management

Add Licensing support in your module

1. Implement ILicenseHandler

Implement CanHandle and Handle method, this method is called when user adds license key in Admin UI.

    internal class LicenseHandler : ILicenseHandler
    {
         public bool CanHandle(string licenseKey)
        {
            return true;
        }
        public void Handle(LicenseValidationContext context,
            out LicenseStatus? status, out string id, out DateTime? issuedUtc, out DateTime? expiresUtc,
            out Dictionary<string, object> policies)
        {
            var key = context.LicenseKey;

            // Add your own logic to see if the license key is belong to your module
            // For example using microsoft standard licensing
            LicenseManager.CurrentContext = context;
            var license = LicenseManager.Validate(typeof(MyLicensedClass));
            var canhandle = (license != null);
            if (canhandle)
            {
                // get the license and polices from encrypted license file 
                status = LicenseStatus.Valid;
                // Read from your license
                issuedUtc = license.IssuedOn;
                // Read from your license 
                expiredUtc = license.ExpiresOn;
                // add your feature list 
                features = policies["features"];
                id = "lic/my-product/" + license.Id;
            }
            else
            {
                // If key is unknown to this validator 
                id = null;
                status = null;
                createdUtc = null;
                expiredUtc = null;
                features = new string[] { };
            }
        }
    
    }

2. Register ILicenseHandler in startup

     services.AddOrchardCms()
                .ConfigureServices( svc=>
                {
                    svc.AddScoped<ILicenseHandler, LicenseHandler>();
                });
