Protecting PHP files with NuSphere's Nu-Coder

Nu-Coder is a PHP Encoder, which protects your PHP source code by converting it to compiled irreversible PHP bytecodes for accelerated runtime performance.

Protect PHP Files - Nu-Coder Features Overview

Functionality available in Nu-Coder covers all your needs with respect to encoding and protection of PHP Files. The features include:


Command Line Encoder for Unix, Linux and Mac OS operating systems

Graphical and Command Line Encoder for Windows Encode in PHP IDE

Encoding PHP Scripts with compiled bytecodes

Better execution performance than regular PHP files

Support for both PHP versions 4 and 5

Tight integration with all NuSphere products, such as PhpED and PhpDock

And more ...

NuSphere provides two different interfaces with Nu-Coder:


Command Line Interface to a standalone Nu-Coder

Graphical User Interface to Nu-Coder from PhpED (available in PhpED 5.0), NuSphere PHP IDE

Both interfaces allow the user to pass various parameters to the encoder to control the way PHP Sources are compiled into bytecodes and the creation of output files.
Using either of these interfaces you can:


Encode and protect PHP files in the entire given directory and its sub-directories

Encode single PHP file and save results into output file.

Tell Nu-Coder to create output file's name by appending given extension at the end of the source file name

Overwrite the source file with encoded content

Perform Syntax check only and not produce any encoded content

In directory processing mode, encode only files with certain extensions (defaults are php and inc)

Copy all non-php files into target directory

Ignore errors and continue encoding

Turn off support for short php tags <? ?>

Turn on support for asp style php tags <%>

Keep extended information for php debugger and php profiler

Preserve line numbers information

Do not strip php-doc comments, useful for reflection

Protecting PHP files with Command Line Interface

Encoding PHP files with Nu-Coder Command Line Interface is as easy as it gets. You can encode one PHP file or an entire directory in a batch mode. Read simple Nu-Coder CLI tutorial or just type nu-coder.exe -h (or -help) and PHP Encoder will tell you all about itself.

Deploying Encoded PHP files with NuSphere PhpDock

NuSphere PhpDock is a unique PHP deployment solution, which enables you to deploy any PHP web application as a Stand Alone Windows Desktop application w/o any changes in the code. Starting with version 1.6 PhpDock fully supports deployment of encoded PHP files same way it does it with regular PHP and HTML source files. No additional action is required.

Deploying Encoded PHP files with NuSphere PhpExpress

PHP files encoded with NuSphere Nu-Coder require special loader present in PHP interpreter. PhpExpress is NuSphere Free PHP loader and accelerator that provides support for encoded files and also speeds up the execution of regular PHP files.
PhpExpress can be downloaded from NuSphere website and distributed Free Of Charge without limitations. Every Nu-Coder installation also comes with PhpExpress.
This is how PhpExpress works:


When PHP interpreter executes any PHP script it first compiles the script into bytecodes. However Nu-Coder produces PHP files that have been already compiled into bytecodes.
PhpExpress loads encoded PHP scripts directly into PHP engine saving time and boosting performance of PHP interpretor
PhpExpress also implements caching for PHP engine and accelerates execution process even if PHP Script is not encoded
