Examples

Basic Example

async () => {
    import jwt from '@tsndr/cloudflare-worker-jwt'

    // Creating a token
    const token = await jwt.sign({ name: 'John Doe', email: '[email protected]' }, 'secret')

    // Verifing token
    const isValid = await jwt.verify(token, 'secret')

    // Check for validity
    if (!isValid)
        return

    // Decoding token
    const { payload } = jwt.decode(token)
}

Restrict Timeframe

async () => {
    import jwt from '@tsndr/cloudflare-worker-jwt'

    // Creating a token
    const token = await jwt.sign({
        name: 'John Doe',
        email: '[email protected]',
        nbf: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) + (60 * 60),      // Not before: Now + 1h
        exp: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) + (2 * (60 * 60)) // Expires: Now + 2h
    }, 'secret')

    // Verifing token
    const isValid = await jwt.verify(token, 'secret') // false

    // Check for validity
    if (!isValid)
        return

    // Decoding token
    const { payload } = jwt.decode(token) // { name: 'John Doe', email: '[email protected]', ... }
}

Usage


Sign

jwt.sign(payload, secret, [options])

Signs a payload and returns the token.

Arguments

Argument Type Status Default Description
payload object required - The payload object. To use nbf (Not Before) and/or exp (Expiration Time) add nbf and/or exp to the payload.
secret string required - A string which is used to sign the payload.
options object optional { algorithm: 'HS256' } The options object supporting algorithm and keyid. (See Available Algorithms)

return

Returns token as a string.


Verify

jwt.verify(token, secret, [options])

Verifies the integrity of the token and returns a boolean value.

Argument Type Status Default Description
token string required - The token string generated by jwt.sign().
secret string required - The string which was used to sign the payload.
options object optional { algorithm: 'HS256', skipValidation: false, throwError: false } The options object supporting algorithm, skipValidation and throwError. (See Available Algorithms)

throws

If options.throwError is true and the token is invalid, an error will be thrown.

return

Returns true if signature, nbf (if set) and exp (if set) are valid, otherwise returns false.


Decode

jwt.decode(token)

Returns the payload without verifying the integrity of the token. Please use jwt.verify() first to keep your application secure!

Argument Type Status Default Description
token string required - The token string generated by jwt.sign().

return

Returns an object containing header and payload:

{
    header: {
        alg: 'HS256',
        typ: 'JWT'
    },
    payload: {
        name: 'John Doe',
        email: '[email protected]'
    }
}
