hapi-auth-jwt

hapi JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication plugin

JSON Web Token authentication requires verifying a signed token. The 'jwt' scheme takes the following options:

• key - (required) The private key the token was signed with.
• validateFunc - (optional) validation and user lookup function with the signature function(request, token, callback) where:
  • request - is the hapi request object of the request which is being authenticated.
  • token - the verified and decoded jwt token
• verifyOptions - settings to define how tokens are verified by the jsonwebtoken library
  • algorithms: List of strings with the names of the allowed algorithms. For instance, ["HS256", "HS384"].
  • audience: if you want to check audience (aud), provide a value here
  • issuer: if you want to check issuer (iss), provide a value here
  • ignoreExpiration: if true do not validate the expiration of the token.
  • maxAge: optional sets an expiration based on the iat field. Eg 2h

See the example folder for an executable example.
