Structures

The following structures are available globally.

Header

  • A representation of a JSON Web Token header. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7515#section-4.1

    Usage Example:

    struct MyClaims: Claims {
       var name: String
    }
    let myHeader = Header(kid: "keyID")
    let jwt = JWT(header: myHeader, claims: MyClaims(name: "Kitura"))
    
    See more

    Declaration

    Swift

    public struct Header : Codable

JWT

  • JWT

    A struct representing the Header and Claims of a JSON Web Token.

    Usage Example:

    struct MyClaims: Claims {
       var name: String
    }
    let jwt = JWT(claims: MyClaims(name: "Kitura"))
    let key = "<PrivateKey>".data(using: .utf8)!
    let signedJWT: String? = try? jwt.sign(using: .rs256(key: key, keyType: .privateKey))

    Declaration

    Swift

    public struct JWT<T> : Codable where T : Claims

JWTError

  • A struct representing the different errors that can be thrown by SwiftJWT

    Declaration

    Swift

    public struct JWTError : Error, Equatable

JWTSigner

  • A struct that will be used to sign the JWT Header and Claims and generate a signed JWT. For RSA and ECDSA, the provided key should be a .utf8 encoded PEM String.

    Usage Example:

    let pemString = """
    -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

    Declaration

    Swift

    public struct JWTSigner

JWTVerifier

  • A struct that will be used to verify the signature of a JWT is valid for the provided Header and Claims. For RSA and ECDSA, the provided key should be a .utf8 encoded PEM String.

    Usage Example:

    let pemString = """
    -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----

    let publicKey = pemString.data(using: .utf8)!
    let jwtVerifier = JWTVerifier.rs256(publicKey: publicKey)
    let verified: Bool = jwt.verify(signedJWT, using: jwtVerifier)

    Declaration

    Swift

    public struct JWTVerifier

ValidateClaimsResult

  • ValidateClaimsResult list the possible results of a call to JWT.validateClaims method. In case of successful validation, .success is returned, all other cases list various problems that may occur during claims validation and indicate that the validation failed.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public struct ValidateClaimsResult : CustomStringConvertible, Equatable
