Before Getting Started

Swift

Import Lock module in your swift file:

import SimpleKeychain

Usage

Save a JWT token or password

let jwt = //user's JWT token obtained after login
A0SimpleKeychain().setString(jwt, forKey:"auth0-user-jwt")

Obtain a JWT token or password

let jwt = A0SimpleKeychain().string(forKey: "auth0-user-jwt")

Share JWT Token with other apps using iOS Access Group

let jwt = //user's JWT token obtained after login
let keychain = A0SimpleKeychain(service: "Auth0", accessGroup: "ABCDEFGH.com.mydomain.myaccessgroup")
keychain.setString(jwt, forKey:"auth0-user-jwt")

Store and retrieve JWT token using TouchID and Keychain AcessControl attribute (iOS 8 Only).

Let's save the JWT first:

let jwt = //user's JWT token obtained after login
let keychain = A0SimpleKeychain()
keychain.useAccessControl = true
keychain.defaultAccessiblity = .whenPasscodeSetThisDeviceOnly
keychain.setString(jwt, forKey:"auth0-user-jwt")

If there is an existent value under the key auth0-user-jwt saved with AccessControl and A0SimpleKeychainItemAccessibleWhenPasscodeSetThisDeviceOnly, iOS will prompt the user to enter their passcode or fingerprint before updating the value.

Then let's obtain the value

let message = NSLocalizedString("Please enter your passcode/fingerprint to login with awesome App!.", comment: "Prompt TouchID message")
let keychain = A0SimpleKeychain()
let jwt = keychain.string(forKey: "auth0-user-jwt", promptMessage:message)

Remove a JWT token or password

A0SimpleKeychain().deleteEntry(forKey: "auth0-user-jwt")
