# Licensing & Updates (`pumpkin-plugin-utils`)
`pumpkin-plugin-utils` is an official utility crate for Pumpkin Rust plugins. It provides built-in tools for **licensing checks**, **cryptographic signature verification**, and **update checks** against the [Pumpkin Marketplace](https://market.pumpkinmc.org).
## Features
- **Offline Ed25519 Signature Verification**: Verifies plugin integrity and embedded marketplace metadata in `< 1ms` on startup without blocking the server.
- **Global Metadata Caching**: Call `init(&context)` once in your plugin's `on_load` lifecycle method to cache verified metadata globally.
- **Online License Verification**: Query the marketplace `/api/v1/rest/check-license` endpoint with automatic 7-day lease caching (`license_lease.json`).
- **Offline Grace Period**: Resilient offline lease evaluation ensures your plugin keeps working during marketplace maintenance or network outages.
- **Zero-Argument Update Checking**: Easily check if newer plugin releases are available on the marketplace.
- **Dynamic Public Key Resolution**: Resolves the marketplace public key dynamically via host WIT imports or HTTPS fallback without hardcoding keys.

## Adding the Dependency
Add `pumpkin-plugin-utils` alongside `pumpkin-plugin-api` in your plugin's `Cargo.toml`:
:::code-group
```toml [Cargo.toml]
[package]
name = "my-plugin"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2024"
[lib]
crate-type = ["cdylib"]
[dependencies]
pumpkin-plugin-api = "0.1.0-dev+26.2-26.45"
pumpkin-plugin-utils = "0.1.0-dev+26.2-26.45"
tracing = "0.1"
```
:::
---
## Initialization
Before performing license or update checks, initialize the utility crate inside your plugin's `on_load` method using the plugin's `Context`:
```rust
use pumpkin_plugin_api::{Context, Plugin, PluginMetadata};
use tracing::{info, warn};
struct MyPlugin;
impl Plugin for MyPlugin {
fn new() -> Self {
Self
}
fn metadata(&self) -> PluginMetadata {
PluginMetadata {
name: "MyPlugin".into(),
version: env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION").into(),
authors: vec!["Author".into()],
description: "Plugin with license and update checks".into(),
}
}
fn on_load(&mut self, context: Context) -> pumpkin_plugin_api::Result<()> {
// Initialize pumpkin-plugin-utils (verifies signature & caches metadata)
let metadata = pumpkin_plugin_utils::init(&context)
.map_err(|e| format!("Initialization failed: {e}"))?;
info!(
"Loaded plugin '{}' v{} (Dev: {})",
metadata.plugin_name, metadata.version, metadata.dev_name
);
Ok(())
}
}
```
::: info What happens during `init`?
1. Locates the plugin's `.wasm` binary in the server directory.
2. Extracts the `pumpkin.metadata` and `wasm_signature` custom sections.
3. Cryptographically verifies the Ed25519 signature over the WASM binary and metadata.
4. Caches the verified `PumpkinMetadata` globally for subsequent calls.

## Checking for Updates
`pumpkin-plugin-utils` provides both zero-argument automatic checking and custom manual checking.
### 1. Automatic Update Check (Recommended)
Once initialized, call `pumpkin_plugin_utils::check_for_updates()` without arguments. It automatically uses the cached plugin name, current version, and marketplace endpoint:
```rust
use tracing::{info, warn};
fn check_updates() {
match pumpkin_plugin_utils::check_for_updates() {
Ok(update) => {
if update.update_available {
info!(
"A new update is available: {}!",
update.latest_version.as_deref().unwrap_or("unknown")
);
} else {
info!("Plugin is up to date.");
}
}
Err(err) => {
warn!("Failed to check for updates: {err}");
}
}
}
```
### 2. Manual Update Check (`UpdateChecker`)
If you want to manually specify the plugin name, version, or a custom marketplace URL, use `UpdateChecker`:
```rust
use pumpkin_plugin_utils::UpdateChecker;
let checker = UpdateChecker::new();
let response = checker.check_for_updates(
"my-plugin",
"1.0.0",
"https://market.pumpkinmc.org",
)?;
if response.update_available {
println!("Update found: {:?}", response.latest_version);
}
```
### Update Response Structure
The update check returns a `CheckUpdateResponse`:
```rust
pub struct CheckUpdateResponse {
/// Whether a newer stable release exists on the marketplace.
pub update_available: bool,
/// The latest stable version string, if available.
pub latest_version: Option<String>,
}
```
---
## Checking and Verifying Licenses
`pumpkin-plugin-utils` supports online verification against the marketplace API as well as offline lease management with configurable grace periods.
### 1. Online License Check
To verify a license against the marketplace (`GET /api/v1/rest/check-license`):
```rust
// Pass `None` to use the embedded license key from metadata
let response = pumpkin_plugin_utils::check_license_online(None)
.map_err(|e| format!("License verification failed: {e}"))?;
if response.valid {
info!("License is valid (status: {})", response.status);
} else {
warn!("License is invalid: {}", response.status);
return Err(format!("Invalid license status: {}", response.status).into());
}
```
#### Providing a Custom License Key Override
If your plugin allows server owners to configure a license key in a `config.toml` file, pass `Some(&key)`:
```rust
let config_key = "LIC-CUSTOM-KEY-12345";
let response = pumpkin_plugin_utils::check_license_online(Some(config_key))?;
```
::: tip 7-Day Lease Caching
Successful online checks automatically save a verified lease file (`license_lease.json`) into the plugin's data folder with a 7-day expiration.
:::
### 2. Evaluating License with Grace Period
To keep paid plugins functional when the server is offline or the marketplace is unreachable, use `evaluate_license`:
```rust
use pumpkin_plugin_utils::LicenseStatus;
use tracing::{info, warn};
// Specify grace period duration in days (e.g., 7 days)
let grace_period_days = 7;
match pumpkin_plugin_utils::evaluate_license(grace_period_days) {
LicenseStatus::Valid(meta) => {
info!("License valid for buyer (User ID: {})", meta.user_id);
}
LicenseStatus::GracePeriod { metadata, days_remaining, reason } => {
warn!(
"Running in offline grace period ({} days remaining). Reason: {}",
days_remaining, reason
);
}
LicenseStatus::Invalid(reason) => {
return Err(format!("Plugin license invalid or tampered: {reason}").into());
}
LicenseStatus::Unsigned => {
info!("Plugin is running in unsigned / development mode.");
}
}
```
### `LicenseStatus` Enum
| Variant | Description |
| :--- | :--- |
| `LicenseStatus::Valid(PumpkinMetadata)` | License is valid, verified, or the plugin is free / open-source. |
| `LicenseStatus::GracePeriod { metadata, days_remaining, reason }` | Operating offline with a previously validated lease that is within the allowable grace period. |
| `LicenseStatus::Invalid(String)` | Signature is invalid, expired, revoked, or metadata was tampered with. |
| `LicenseStatus::Unsigned` | Binary does not contain marketplace metadata/signature (useful during local development). |
---
## Accessing Plugin Metadata
You can access the verified plugin metadata anywhere in your codebase using `get_metadata` or `metadata()`:
```rust
if let Some(meta) = pumpkin_plugin_utils::get_metadata() {
println!("Plugin Name: {}", meta.plugin_name);
println!("Plugin Version: {}", meta.version);
println!("Is Paid: {}", meta.is_paid);
println!("License Key: {:?}", meta.license_key);
println!("Buyer User ID: {}", meta.user_id);
println!("Developer: {} (ID: {})", meta.dev_name, meta.dev_id);
println!("Marketplace URL: {}", meta.marketplace_url);
println!("Issued At: {}", meta.issued_at);
}
```
### `PumpkinMetadata` Fields
| Field | Type | Description |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| `plugin_name` | `String` | Canonical plugin name on the marketplace. |
| `version` | `String` | SemVer version string of the plugin binary. |
| `plugin_id` | `i64` | Unique plugin identifier on the marketplace. |
| `dev_id` | `i64` | Developer account ID. |
| `dev_name` | `String` | Developer display name. |
| `is_paid` | `bool` | `true` if this is a premium/commercial plugin. |
| `user_id` | `i64` | Buyer / licensee user ID (`0` for free plugins). |
| `license_key` | `Option<String>` | Unique license key issued to the licensee. |
| `marketplace_url` | `String` | Base marketplace URL (`https://market.pumpkinmc.org`). |
| `issued_at` | `String` | ISO-8601 timestamp when the binary/license was issued. |

## Complete Example
Here is a full plugin implementation combining initialization, online licensing checks, offline grace periods, and update checking:
:::code-group
```rust:line-numbers [src/lib.rs]
use pumpkin_plugin_api::{Context, Plugin, PluginMetadata};
use pumpkin_plugin_utils::LicenseStatus;
use tracing::{error, info, warn};
struct CommercialPlugin;
impl Plugin for CommercialPlugin {
fn new() -> Self {
Self
}
fn metadata(&self) -> PluginMetadata {
PluginMetadata {
name: "CommercialPlugin".into(),
version: env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION").into(),
authors: vec!["Developer".into()],
description: "A commercial Pumpkin plugin".into(),
}
}
fn on_load(&mut self, context: Context) -> pumpkin_plugin_api::Result<()> {
// 1. Initialize plugin-utils (verifies Ed25519 signature & caches metadata)
let meta = pumpkin_plugin_utils::init(&context).map_err(|err| {
error!("Signature verification failed: {err}");
format!("Security verification error: {err}")
})?;
info!("Loaded {} v{}", meta.plugin_name, meta.version);
// 2. Validate license (offline evaluation + online check)
match pumpkin_plugin_utils::evaluate_license(7) {
LicenseStatus::Valid(_) => {
info!("Local license status: Valid");
}
LicenseStatus::GracePeriod { days_remaining, .. } => {
warn!("Local license in grace period: {days_remaining} days remaining");
}
LicenseStatus::Unsigned => {
info!("Running in development mode (unsigned binary)");
}
LicenseStatus::Invalid(reason) => {
error!("Invalid license: {reason}");
return Err(format!("License verification failed: {reason}").into());
}
}
// 3. Online license check if paid
if meta.is_paid {
if let Ok(check) = pumpkin_plugin_utils::check_license_online(None) {
if !check.valid {
return Err(format!("Online license rejected: {}", check.status).into());
}
info!("Online license check confirmed: {}", check.status);
} else {
warn!("Online license verification unreachable, falling back to local lease");
}
}
// 4. Check for updates
if let Ok(update) = pumpkin_plugin_utils::check_for_updates() {
if update.update_available {
info!(
"A new version is available on the marketplace: {}",
update.latest_version.as_deref().unwrap_or("unknown")
);
}
}
Ok(())
}
fn on_unload(&mut self, _context: Context) -> pumpkin_plugin_api::Result<()> {
info!("CommercialPlugin unloaded.");
Ok(())
}
}
pumpkin_plugin_api::register_plugin!(CommercialPlugin);
```
