Build Status

Green JWT

Node.js implementation of JSON Web Token (JWT) with support for signatures (JWS), encryption (JWE) and web keys (JWK).

"JSON Web Token (JWT) is a means of representing claims to be transferred between two parties. The claims in a JWT are encoded as a JSON object that may be digitally signed using JSON Web Signature (JWS) and/or encrypted using JSON Web Encryption (JWE)."

The suggested pronunciation of JWT is the same as the English word "jot".

This package is aimed to implements the following IETF drafts:

  • JWT draft-jones-json-web-token-10
  • JWA draft-ietf-jose-json-web-algorithms-02
  • JWS draft-ietf-jose-json-web-signature-02
  • JWE draft-ietf-jose-json-web-encryption-02
  • JWK draft-ietf-jose-json-web-key-02

But currently we only support JWT with JWS and the following JWA signing algorithms

  • NONE
  • HMAC
    • HS256
    • HS384
    • HS512
  • RSA
    • RS256
    • RS384
    • RS512

As we move forward we will add additional JWA algorithms and support for JWE. Please submit any comments and suggestions.
