PHP Licensing + Upgrade Systems?

[Kiopa_Matt]

I searched around a bit, but nothing really jumped out at me. What do you guys use for licensing, and one-click upgrades of PHP software? For example, with mine it's just a simple install.php file, upload it, enter your license ID#, and it'll grab the actual software off my server and install it. Then same goes for upgrades -- one click to release, and one click for customers to install via Maintenance->Package Manager menu.

I need something similar, but can't use my own infrastructure for this one. Any ideas? What do the rest of you guys use? Thanks in advance!

Nah, it's a legitimate problem he's trying to solve so I have no inclination to be a dick today.

@kiopa: have you looked at how apps like wordpress/piwik/etc handle it? Maybe one of them packages the upgrading code with the app and you can just clone it.

You can't just strip ions from cubes Matthew.

Yeah, looks like that's what it's going to have to be.
