V-jwt

A JWT (JSON Web Token) library for vlang.

Env

  • vlang >= 0.5.2

Dependency

  • deatil.vrsa >= 0.1.10

What the heck is a JWT?

JWT.io has a great introduction to JSON Web Tokens.

In short, it's a signed JSON object that does something useful (for example, authentication). It's commonly used for Bearer tokens in Oauth 2. A token is made of three parts, separated by .'s. The first two parts are JSON objects, that have been base64url encoded. The last part is the signature, encoded the same way.

The first part is called the header. It contains the necessary information for verifying the last part, the signature. For example, which encryption method was used for signing and what key was used.

The part in the middle is the interesting bit. It's called the Claims and contains the actual stuff you care about. Refer to RFC 7519 for information about reserved keys and the proper way to add your own.

What's in the box?

This library supports the parsing and verification as well as the generation and signing of JWTs. Current supported signing algorithms are HMAC SHA, RSA, RSA-PSS, and ECDSA, though hooks are present for adding your own.

Adding v-jwt as a dependency

Add the dependency to your project:

v install deatil.vjwt

or

v install --git https://github.com/deatil/v-jwt

The v-jwt can be imported in your application with:

import deatil.vjwt.jwt

Get Starting

module main

import rand
import deatil.vjwt.jwt

fn main() {
    mut claims := map[string]string{}
    claims["aud"] = "example.com"
    claims["iat"] = "foo"

    key := "test-key"

    mut s := jwt.signing_method_hs256.new()
    // for pss
    // mut rng := rand.new_default()
    // s.with_random(mut rng)
    token_string := s.sign(claims, key.bytes())!

    // output: 
    // make jwt: eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJhdWQiOiJleGFtcGxlLmNvbSIsImlhdCI6ImZvbyJ9.50cze1sslhuKh5-sXLoMOjVj6PmOBR9QGJyqzugBiig
    println("make jwt: ${token_string}")

    // =========

    mut p := jwt.signing_method_hs256.new()
    parsed := p.parse(token_string, key.bytes())!
    
    // output: 
    // claims aud: example.com
    claims2 := parsed.get_claims()!
    claims21 := claims2.as_map_of_strings()
    println("claims aud: ${claims21["aud"]}")
}

Token Validator

module main

import time
import deatil.vjwt.jwt

fn main() {
    token_string := "eyJ0eXAiOiJKV0UiLCJhbGciOiJFUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6ImtpZHMifQ.eyJpc3MiOiJpc3MiLCJpYXQiOjE1Njc4NDIzODgsImV4cCI6MTc2Nzg0MjM4OCwiYXVkIjoiZXhhbXBsZS5jb20iLCJzdWIiOiJzdWIiLCJqdGkiOiJqdGkgcnJyIiwibmJmIjoxNTY3ODQyMzg4fQ.dGVzdC1zaWduYXR1cmU"

    token := jwt.Token.from_string(token_string)

    validator := jwt.Validator.new(token)

    // validator.with_leeway(3);

    // output: 
    // hasBeenIssuedBy: true
    status := validator.has_been_issued_by(["iss"])
    println("hasBeenIssuedBy: ${status}");

    // now := time.now().unix()

    // have functions:
    // validator.has_been_issued_by(["iss"]) // iss
    // validator.is_related_to(["sub"]) // sub
    // validator.is_identified_by("jti rrr") // jti
    // validator.is_permitted_for(["example.com"]) // audience
    // validator.has_been_issued_before(now) // iat, now is time timestamp
    // validator.is_minimum_time_before(now) // nbf, now is time timestamp
    // validator.is_expired(now) // exp, now is time timestamp
}
