🧠How DevPayr Works

Before you dive deeper into SDKs, licenses, domains, or advanced workflows, it’s important to understand how DevPayr actually works under the hood.

DevPayr is more than a license validator. It’s a full licensing, payment enforcement, and deployment control system designed to protect your work — whether you're a developer, designer, agency, freelancer, or SaaS builder.

This page gives you a complete, big-picture understanding of DevPayr’s core mechanics: licenses, validation, environments, domains, usage limits, injectables, SDKs, webhooks, and API keys.

By the end, everything will “click.”

🌍 The Core Philosophy Behind DevPayr

DevPayr exists for a simple but powerful reason:

To protect your digital work and ensure you get paid — without complicating your development workflow.

Whether you build:

• SaaS platforms

• Templates/themes

• Websites for clients

• Mobile apps

• Plugins

• Internal enterprise systems

• Digital tools

DevPayr helps you:

• Enforce licensing

• Limit unauthorized usage

• Validate environments/domains

• Lock features behind payments

• Deliver dynamic scripts/files

• Suspend unpaid deployments

• Automate renewals/trials

And it integrates into your codebase with minimal friction.

🧩 The DevPayr System — High-Level Overview

DevPayr operates through five core components, all working together:

1. Projects

2. Licenses

3. Validation Engine

4. Injectables

5. SDKs & API Keys

Let’s break them down properly.

1️⃣ Projects — Your Product Container

A Project is the digital “workspace” for one of your apps, tools, or client systems.

Each project holds:

• Its licenses

• Allowed domains

• API keys

• Webhooks

• Metadata

• Injectables

• Environment rules

• Usage limits

• Payment state (has_paid or not)

Projects keep everything clean and separated so multiple products don’t mix signals.

2️⃣ Licenses — The Gatekeepers

A License determines whether a specific installation or deployment of your software is allowed to run.

Licenses have:

• Expiration dates

• Domain limits

• Subdomain limits

• Usage-per-day limits

• Environment controls

• Paid/unpaid state

• Restrictions

• Test or production mode

Every time your app boots (or periodically), it sends a validation request that says:

“Is this copy allowed to run?”

DevPayr answers that question with structured, predictable data.

3️⃣ Validation Engine — The Brain

This is where DevPayr shines.

Every time your app validates a license (via SDK or API), the DevPayr validation pipeline runs:

✔ Checks the license

• Is it valid?

• Is it expired?

• Is it active or suspended?

• Is it marked as test/dev-only?

✔ Checks the project

• Is the project marked as paid?

• Are injectables available?

• Are environment rules satisfied?

✔ Checks domain/IP restrictions

• Is the host allowed?

• Does it exceed max domains?

• Is the subdomain allowed?

• Is the IP/country blocked (if enabled)?

✔ Checks usage limits

• Has the license exceeded daily validation limits?

• Is throttling needed?

✔ Checks environment

• Local? Staging? Production?

✔ Logs usage

For your dashboard analytics.

✔ Returns a structured response

Such as:

{
  "has_paid": true,
  "injectables": [...],
  "meta": {},
  "license": {...}
}

Your app reads the result and either:

• Allows full access

• Shows a licensing modal

• Redirects the user

• Logs warnings silently

• Blocks access

• Or handles it however you choose

4️⃣ Injectables — DevPayr’s Secret Weapon ⚡

Injectables are one of the most powerful features in DevPayr.

They allow you to remotely deliver code, scripts, files, or content into your application dynamically — only if the license or project is paid.

Injectables can be:

• JS files

• PHP snippets

• Python modules

• HTML fragments

• JSON config

• CSS

• Blade snippets

• Text/markdown

• Whatever your app can consume

Injectables have properties like:

• target_path — where you want the content written

• type — script, file, inline, module

• mode — append, overwrite, create

• only_if_paid — strict gating

• is_active — enable/disable

Why injectables matter:

⭐ Remote feature control

Flip features on/off without redeploying.

⭐ Deliver code to paid users only

Protect premium features with zero distribution risk.

⭐ Update logic on the fly

Shipping updates without updating the app itself.

⭐ Security and obfuscation

Code doesn’t live inside the customer’s environment permanently.

⭐ Multi-language support

Injectables work in Node, PHP, Python, Frontend, and more.

Injectables are fetched automatically during validation if enabled.

5️⃣ SDKs & API Keys — How You Integrate

DevPayr provides official SDKs for:

• Node.js

• PHP

• Python

• Browser / Frontend JS

The SDK handles:

• Validation

• Injectable fetching

• Writing files locally (Node, PHP, Python)

• Calling API endpoints

• Logging

• Error handling

• Config orchestration

• Signature verification

API Keys: When You Need More Power

A License Key alone can validate your app.

An API Key unlocks:

• License creation

• License suspension/reactivation

• Project management

• Domain management

• Injectable upload/edit

• Payment validation

• Real-time administrative workflows

Never use API keys in frontend code.

🔄 How a Typical DevPayr Validation Flow Works

Here’s a simple example of what happens when your app boots:

Your App → sends license + optional metadata

DevPayr → validates everything

DevPayr → responds:

{
  "has_paid": true,
  "injectables": [...],
  "license": {...},
  "meta": {...}
}

If valid, your app:

• Runs normally

• Loads injectables

• Stores updates locally

• Unlocks premium features

If invalid, your app:

• Shows a licensing modal

• Redirects the user

• Disables premium features

• Or denies access entirely

You decide the behavior.

🔥 Why DevPayr Works So Well

✔ Works across any tech stack

Anywhere you can send HTTP, DevPayr works.

✔ Lightweight SDKs

Minimal footprint, simple setup.

✔ Real-time license management

Suspend a license → customer loses access instantly.

✔ Strong abuse prevention

Domains, subdomains, usage limits, environment checks.

✔ Injectables for dynamic deployments

No other licensing system does this as elegantly.

✔ Designed for developers and designers

Simple defaults, powerful extensions.

✔ Built for SaaS, agencies, and software creators

Whether you're shipping one app or 200 client dashboards.
