gitlab-license's Introduction

gitlab-license

GitLab gem and Ruby script that allows you to easily generate and verify GitLab EE licenses.

Installation

Simply run

gem install gitlab-license

Usage

# Generate a key pair. You should do this only once.
key_pair = OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.generate(2048)

# Write it to a file to use in the license generation application.
File.open("license_key", "w") { |f| f.write(key_pair.to_pem) }

# Extract the public key.
public_key = key_pair.public_key
# Write it to a file to ship along with the main application.
File.open("license_key.pub", "w") { |f| f.write(public_key.to_pem) }

# In the license generation application, load the private key from a file.
private_key = OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new File.read("license_key")
Gitlab::License.encryption_key = private_key

# Build a new license.
license = Gitlab::License.new

# License information to be rendered as a table in the admin panel.
# E.g.: "This instance of GitLab Enterprise Edition is licensed to:"
# Specific keys don't matter, but there needs to be at least one.
license.licensee = {
  "Name"    => "Douwe Maan",
  "Company" => "GitLab B.V.",
  "Email"   => "[email protected]"
}

# The date the license starts. 
# Required.
license.starts_at         = Date.new(2015, 4, 24)
# The date the license expires. 
# Not required, to allow lifetime licenses.
license.expires_at        = Date.new(2016, 4, 23)

# The below dates are hardcoded in the license so that you can play with the
# period after which there are "repercussions" to license expiration.

# The date admins will be notified about the license's pending expiration. 
# Not required.
license.notify_admins_at  = Date.new(2016, 4, 19)

# The date regular users will be notified about the license's pending expiration.
# Not required.
license.notify_users_at   = Date.new(2016, 4, 23)

# The date "changes" like code pushes, issue or merge request creation 
# or modification and project creation will be blocked.
# Not required.
license.block_changes_at  = Date.new(2016, 5, 7)

# Restrictions bundled with this license.
# Not required, to allow unlimited-user licenses for things like educational organizations.
license.restrictions  = {
  # The maximum allowed number of active users.
  # Not required.
  active_user_count: 10000

  # We don't currently have any other restrictions, but we might in the future.
}

puts "License:"
puts license

# Export the license, which encrypts and encodes it.
data = license.export

puts "Exported license:"
puts data

# Write the license to a file to send to a customer.
File.open("GitLabBV.gitlab-license", "w") { |f| f.write(data) }


# In the customer's application, load the public key from a file.
public_key = OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new File.read("license_key.pub")
Gitlab::License.encryption_key = public_key

# Read the license from a file.
data = File.read("GitLabBV.gitlab-license")

# Import the license, which decodes and decrypts it.
$license = Gitlab::License.import(data)

puts "Imported license:"
puts $license

# Quit if the license is invalid
unless $license
  raise "The license is invalid."
end

# Quit if the active user count exceeds the allowed amount:
if $license.restricted?(:active_user_count)
  active_user_count = User.active.count
  if active_user_count > $license.restrictions[:active_user_count]
    raise "The active user count exceeds the allowed amount!"
  end
end

# Show admins a message if the license is about to expire.
if $license.notify_admins?
  puts "The license is due to expire on #{$license.expires_at}."
end

# Show users a message if the license is about to expire.
if $license.notify_users?
  puts "The license is due to expire on #{$license.expires_at}."
end

# Block pushes when the license expired two weeks ago.
module Gitlab
  class GitAccess
    # ...
    def check(cmd, changes = nil)
      if $license.block_changes?
        return build_status_object(false, "License expired")
      end

      # Do other Git access verification
      # ...
    end
    # ...
  end
end

# Show information about the license in the admin panel.
puts "This instance of GitLab Enterprise Edition is licensed to:"
$license.licensee.each do |key, value|
  puts "#{key}: #{value}"
end

if $license.expired?
  puts "The license expired on #{$license.expires_at}"
elsif $license.will_expire?
  puts "The license will expire on #{$license.expires_at}"
else
  puts "The license will never expire."
end

Usage (easy mode)

  1. Launch the gitlabgen.rb script in a Ruby shell
  2. Enter all the requested info.
  • Remember to replace GitLab's public key with the one in this repo inside /opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails/.license_encryption_key.pub if you want the generated license to work in a GitLab production system. Keep in mind that the legallity of this action is questionable at best.
  1. Copy the output and paste it into GitLab, and you're done!
