About
Library for generating, decoding and validating JSON Web Tokens (JWT), an open, industry standard
RFC 7519 method for representing claims securely between two parties. This library handle JSON Web Tokens used in OAuth authentication. Currently this component allows generating and decoding tokens, which are needed to connect to existing REST services that require JWT for authentication. It supports tokens signed symmetrically (using HS256, HS384, HS512) and also asymmetrically (using RS256, RS384, RS512).
To learn more about JWT usage and its structure, consult the
JWT introduction.
It is recommended to consult the component documentation to obtain more details about implementation.
Note: In order to properly use the sample key links that exist in this Demo, the sample keys must first be configured in service center. All of them are site properties present in this module.
