Hello, I want to make the plugins work on time, I have a kernel of plug-ins. It remains to make a function that will shut down the plug-in if the expiration date has expired

there is an example, but it is for AMXMODX https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=235864

Sorry for my english. I am a pseudo-Russian coder

this method is not really protecting something because changing the server time will bypass it,
but anyway.

PHP Code:

Usage: checkForTimeLicense( { 29, 11, 2017 }, "The plugin is no longer valid." ); // Plugin is valid until the 29/11/2017. ( inside OnPluginStart ). 


PHP Code:

stock void checkForTimeLicense(int[] time, const char[] Error)
{
    int timeNum = GetTime();
    char times[3][5]; 
    
    FormatTime(times[0], 5, "%d", timeNum); // day
    FormatTime(times[1], 5, "%m", timeNum); // month
    FormatTime(times[2], 5, "%Y", timeNum); // year
    
    int timesf = time[0] + time[1] * 30 + time[2] * 365;
    timeNum = StringToInt(times[0]) + StringToInt(times[1]) * 30 + StringToInt(times[2]) * 365;
    
    if( timesf - timeNum < 0 )
    {
        SetFailState(Error);
    }
}

Thanks for the example, did a little differently. I made an active binding to the database, the plugin is attached to the kernel, the kernel sends a request for the validity of the date, if the date is not valid, cancels the launch
