Requirements

This plugin requires Craft CMS 3.0.0-beta.23 or later.

Installation

To install the plugin, follow these instructions.

Settings

The only setting is a signing secret. It is recommended to set this using an environment variable.

How to create a JWT Token

First, create a payload as a Twig hash (associative array).

Next, pass this into the Twig function, along with the algorithm (e.g. 'HS256') to create the token:

{% set payload = {
   'name': 'John Doe',
   'company': 'Google',
} %}

{% set token = craft.jwtTokens.createToken(payload, 'HS256') %}
