Tiny JWT library

I create this library to use in my servlet-based project with JWT auhorization. In fact, it is a very early version created just for fun, but it is ready to use. Library uses HMAC (SHA256, SHA384, SHA512) for signing, base64 from java.util and jackson library to work with JSON. Library designed for easy extending with another signing implementations, JSON serialization and deserialization, base64 encoding and decoding.

Maven usage

Put artifact to your local repository:

git clone https://github.com/beljaeff/tiny-jwt
cd tiny-jwt
mvn install

Then you can use it in your project:

        <dependency>
            <groupId>us.cleansite.very</groupId>
            <artifactId>tiny-jwt</artifactId>
            <version>0.0.1</version>
        </dependency>

Code example

public class Example {

    private static final String KEY = "SuperSecretKey";

    public static class MyPayload extends Payload {
        private String data;

        public MyPayload() {
        }

        MyPayload(String data) {
            this.data = data;
        }

        public String getData() {
            return data;
        }

        public void setData(String data) {
            this.data = data;
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        MyPayload payload = new MyPayload("some data");
        String jwtToken = Jwt.encoder()
                .payload(payload)
                .key(KEY)
                .encode();

        System.out.println(jwtToken);

        MyPayload decoded = Jwt.decoder()
                .key(KEY)
                .token(jwtToken)
                .decode(MyPayload.class);

        System.out.println(decoded.getData());
    }
}

Payload class is used for transferring JWT data, so you can use it or extend it. Library checks nbf and exp fields of JWT given. You can see wiki or read the code for JWT fields decription.
