A Python implementation of [JSON Web Token draft 01](http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-jones-json-web-token-01.html).
Installing
sudo easy_install PyJWT
Usage
import jwt jwt.encode({“some”: “payload”}, “secret”)
Note the resulting JWT will not be encrypted, but verifiable with a secret key.
jwt.decode(“someJWTstring”, “secret”)
If the secret is wrong, it will raise a jwt.DecodeError telling you as such. You can still get at the payload by setting the verify argument to false.
jwt.decode(“someJWTstring”, verify=False)
Algorithms
The JWT spec supports several algorithms for cryptographic signing. This library currently supports:
HS256 - HMAC using SHA-256 hash algorithm (default)
HS384 - HMAC using SHA-384 hash algorithm
HS512 - HMAC using SHA-512 hash algorithm
Change the algorithm with by setting it in encode:
jwt.encode({“some”: “payload”}, “secret”, “HS512”)
Tests
You can run tests from the project root after installed with:
python tests/test_jwt.py
