Examples

Encoding

require 'json/jwt'

claim = {
  iss: 'nov',
  exp: 1.week.from_now,
  nbf: Time.now
}

# No signature, no encryption
jwt = JSON::JWT.new(claim).to_s

# With signiture, no encryption
jws = JSON::JWT.new(claim).sign(key, algorithm) # algorithm is optional. default HS256
jws.to_s # => header.payload.signature

# With signature & encryption
jwe = jws.encrypt(key, algorithm, encryption_method) # algorithm & encryption_method are optional. default RSA1_5 & A128CBC-HS256
jws.to_s # => header.encrypted_key.iv.cipher_text.authentication_tag

For details about key and algorithm, see JWS Spec and Sign Key Fixture Generator.

Decoding

jwt_string = "jwt_header.jwt_claims.jwt_signature"

JSON::JWT.decode(jwt_string, key)

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

  • Fork the project.

  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.

  • Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.

  • Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)

  • Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
