NAME

Dancer2::Plugin::JWT - JSON Web Token made simple for Dancer2

SYNOPSIS

 use Dancer2;
 use Dancer2::Plugin::JWT;

 post '/login' => sub {
     if (is_valid(param("username"), param("password"))) {
        jwt { username => param("username") };
        template 'index';
     }
     else {
         redirect '/';
     }
 };

 get '/private' => sub {
     my $data = jwt;
     redirect '/ unless exists $data->{username};

     ...
 };

DESCRIPTION

Registers the jwt keyword that can be used to set or retrieve the payload of a JSON Web Token.

To this to work it is required to have a secret defined in your config.yml file:

plugins:
   JWT:
       secret: "my little secret"

BUGS

I am sure a lot. Please use GitHub issue tracker here.
