JSON Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) (@solid/jose)
Lightweight isomorphic JSON Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) library for browser and Node.js
Table of Contents
Security
TBD
Background
- Based on Webcrypto API
- Isomorphic (Node.js and Browser)
Install
Requires Node.js 8+.
npm install @solid/joseUsage
Building with Webpack
Important:
If you're using this library as a dependency and you plan to use Webpack, don't
forget to add the following lines to your webpack.config.js externals:
section:
externals: {
'@sinonjs/text-encoding': 'TextEncoder',
'isomorphic-webcrypto': 'crypto'
}In Node
const { JWT } = require('@solid/jose')
const decoded = JWT.decode(data) // throws an error if invalidIn Browser
If you npm install @solid/jose as a dependency, the Webpack'd minified bundle will be
available in the dist/ directory as jose.min.js.
If you're actively developing/testing this lib, you can npm run dist, and the
bundle will be rebuilt.
To use in the browser, simply import the bundle in a <script> tag, and the lib
will be loaded into the window.JOSE global variable.
Example test.html file, to illustrate:
<html>
<head>
<script src="dist/jose.min.js"></script>
<script>
// You can now start using the library
let jwt = new JOSE.JWT({
header: { alg: 'HS256' },
payload: { iss: 'https://forge.anvil.io' }
})
</script>
</head>
