Laravel 4.2 Encrypter for PHP 7.1+

A port of the Laravel 5.4 Encrypter for 4.2 with PHP 7.1 support.

Due to mcrypt being deprecated in 7.1 you can't run Laravel 4.2 under PHP 7.1 without a lot of deprecate warnings.

This package adds a PHP 7.1+ Encrypter for Laravel 4.2

Note: Backward compatibility has been added in version 1.1.0 for PHP 5.6+ to make upgrading easier

Installation

You can install it using composer:

composer require tomgrohl/laravel4-php71-encrypter

Configuration

1 .Add service provider

Add the following to your providers in the app config

\Tomgrohl\Laravel\Encryption\EncryptionServiceProvider::class

2. Check Encryption Key settings in app config

Cipher must either be 'AES-128-CBC' with a key length of 16

OR

Cipher must either be 'AES-256-CBC' with a key length of 32

3. You're good to go!
