python-jose
A JOSE implementation in Python
Docs are available on ReadTheDocs.
The JavaScript Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) technologies - JSON Web Signature (JWS), JSON Web Encryption (JWE), JSON Web Key (JWK), and JSON Web Algorithms (JWA) - collectively can be used to encrypt and/or sign content using a variety of algorithms. While the full set of permutations is extremely large, and might be daunting to some, it is expected that most applications will only use a small set of algorithms to meet their needs.
Installation
$ pip install python-jose
Custom Backends
As of 3.0.0, python-jose uses the pure-python rsa module by default for RSA signing and verification. If necessary, other RSA backends are supported. Options include crytography, pycryptodome, and pycrypto.
In order to use a custom backend, install python-jose with the appropriate extra.
It is recommended that a custom backend is used in production, as the pure-python rsa module is slow.
The crytography option is a good default.
$ pip install python-jose[cryptography] $ pip install python-jose[pycryptodome] $ pip install python-jose[pycrypto]
Usage
>>> from jose import jwt
>>> token = jwt.encode({'key': 'value'}, 'secret', algorithm='HS256')
u'eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJrZXkiOiJ2YWx1ZSJ9.FG-8UppwHaFp1LgRYQQeS6EDQF7_6-bMFegNucHjmWg'
>>> jwt.decode(token, 'secret', algorithms=['HS256'])
{u'key': u'value'}
Thanks
This library was originally based heavily on the work of the folks over at PyJWT.
