This class provides the functionality to create an Pass for Passbook in Apple's iOS 6 and newer on-the-fly. It creates, signs and packages the Pass as a .pkpass file according to Apple's documentation.
Please also take a look at my repository PHP-Passkit, which includes the PKTemplate and PKValidate classes, to easily manage templates and validate pass files.
- PHP 5
- PHP ZIP Support (May be installed by default)
- Access to filesystem (Script must be able to create temporary folders)
Please take a look at the example.php file for example usage. For more info on the JSON for the pass and how to style it, take a look at the docs at developers.apple.com.
