Install-Package Babel.Licensing -Version 2.8.8

dotnet add package Babel.Licensing –version 2.8.8

Our licensing library will take care to find the license, verify that the license has not been tampered with and that all the usage restrictions are met.

Create License

RSASignature rsa = new RSASignature();
rsa.CreateKeyPair();

string license = new XmlLicense()
              .ForAssembly(typeof(Program).Assembly)
              .LicensedTo("ACME", "devs@acme.com")
              .WithTrialDays(30)
              .SignWith(rsa).ToReadableString();

Validate License

try
{
    XmlLicenseManager manager = new XmlLicenseManager();
    var lic = manager.Validate(license, typeof(Program));

    if (lic.IsTrial)
    {
        var trial = lic.Restrictions.OfType().First();
        Console.WriteLine("Trial time left: {0}", trial.TimeLeft);
    }
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    Console.WriteLine("License not valid: {0}", ex.Message);
}
