jwt web token code example
Example 1: javascript token generator
function generate_token(length){
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);
Example 2: 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 3: jsonwebtoken
jwt.sign({ exp: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) + (60 * 60), data: 'foobar'}, 'secret');
