JWT generator code example
Example 1: jwt generate token
const genToken = (id) => {
return JWT.sign({ id }, process.env.JWT_SECRET)
}
Example 2: javascript token generator
function generate_token(length){
//edit the token allowed characters
var a = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890".split("");
var b = [];
for (var i=0; i<length; i++) {
var j = (Math.random() * (a.length-1)).toFixed(0);
b[i] = a[j];
}
return b.join("");
}
generate_token(32); //returns "qweQj4giRJSdMNzB8g1XIa6t3YtRIHPH"
Example 3: jwt encode
jwt.encode( { 'client_id':'value', 'expires_in':'datetime'}, SECRET_KEY, algorithm='HS256' )
OBS:
Convert datetime to string because in the backend is a json encode system
and it will generate a TypeError
ex: TypeError: Object of type datetime is not JSON serializable
Example 4: decode csrf token online
{
"alg": "CfDJ8OW5OI0CPGJBgSNlGwO0x4YF7qbYKVv7KOO-N0eFtDUzXOrL7F9Xd9W1otVi4ueJOkAmAhuoHFWNkqRaFD7zvAMHMSKncl6Vo5QXKmpvy6vqxOKxSURdIey8aZPRi3Nnhp2p9la-Al5xrVKz0lignRdcCHf3O7pF9zv_sNx_c_T7pUe3WsxaJEPX3t_9FO2Wjw"
}
Example 5: jwt
JSON Web Token is an Internet standard for creating data with optional
signature and/or optional encryption whose payload holds JSON that asserts
some number of claims.
The tokens are signed either using a private secret or a public/private key.
