Functional Kotlin & Arrow based library for generating and verifying JWTs and JWSs.
The following Algorithms are supported:
- HS256
- HS384
- HS512
- RS256
- RS384
- RS512
- ES256 (secp256r1 curve)
- ES256K (secp256k1 curve - NOTE: this curve has been deprecated and support will be removed to main compatability with JDK17)
- ES384
- ES512
Include the following dependency: io.github.nefilim.kjwt:kjwt-core:<latest version> in your build.
- Google KMS support also add:
io.github.nefilim.kjwt:kjwt-google-kms-grpc:<latest version>. Documentation TODO. - minimal JWKS support also add:
io.github.nefilim.kjwt:kjwt-jwks:<latest version>. Documentation TODO. See JWKSSpec
Please make sure you have Arrow Core in your dependencies.
For examples see: JWTSpec.kt
The minimum level of support for Android is 26 as Base64 is being used.
val jwt = JWT.es256("kid-123") {
subject("1234567890")
issuer("nefilim")
claim("name", "John Doe")
claim("admin", true)
issuedAt(LocalDateTime.ofInstant(Instant.ofEpochSecond(1516239022), ZoneId.of("UTC")))
}will create the following:
{
"alg":"ES256",
"typ":"JWT",
"kid":"123"
}
{
"sub": "1234567890",
"iss": "nefilim",
"name": "John Doe",
"admin": true,
"iat": 1516239022
}Following on from above:
jwt.sign(ecPrivateKey)
returns an Either<JWTVerificationError, SignedJWT<JWSES256Algorithm>>. The rendered field in the SignedJWT
contains the encoded string representation, in this case:
eyJhbGciOiJFUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCIsImtpZCI6IjEyMyJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwiaXNzIjoibmVmaWxpbSIsIm5hbWUiOiJKb2huIERvZSIsImFkbWluIjp0cnVlLCJpYXQiOjE1MTYyMzkwMjJ9.glaZCoqhNE7TiPLZl2hDK18yZGJUyVW0cE8pTM-zggyVfROiMPQJlImVcPSxTd50A8NRDOhoZwrqX04K4QS1bQ
JWT.decode("eyJhbGciOiJFUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCIsImtpZCI6IjEyMyJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwiaXNzIjoibmVmaWxpbSIsIm5hbWUiOiJKb2huIERvZSIsImFkbWluIjp0cnVlLCJpYXQiOjE1MTYyMzkwMjJ9.glaZCoqhNE7TiPLZl2hDK18yZGJUyVW0cE8pTM-zggyVfROiMPQJlImVcPSxTd50A8NRDOhoZwrqX04K4QS1bQ")If the algorithm is known and expected:
JWT.decodeT("eyJhbGciOiJFUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCIs...", JWSES256Algorithm)The resulting DecodedJWT contains a JWT<JWSES256Algorithm> and the individual (3) parts of the JWT. Public
claims can be accessed via the predefined accessors, eg:
JWT.decode("...").tap {
println("the issuer is: ${it.issuer()}")
println("the subject is: ${it.subject()}")
}private claims be accessed with
claimValueclaimValueAsBooleanclaimValueAsLong
etc.
Custom claim validators can be created by defining ClaimsValidator:
typealias ClaimsValidatorResult = ValidatedNel<out JWTVerificationError, JWTClaims>
typealias ClaimsValidator = (JWTClaims) -> ClaimsValidatorResulteg. a claim validator for issuer could look like this:
fun issuer(issuer: String): ClaimsValidator = requiredOptionClaim( // an absent claim would be considered an error
"issuer", // a label for the claim (used in error reporting)
{ issuer() }, // a function that returns the claim from the JWTClaims/JWT
{ it == issuer }, // the predicate to evaluate the claim value
JWTValidationError.InvalidIssuer // the error to return
)and for a private claim:
fun issuer(issuer: String): ClaimsValidator = requiredOptionClaim( // an absent claim would be considered an error
"admin", // a label for the claim (used in error reporting)
{ claimValueAsBoolean("admin") }, // a function that returns the claim from the JWTClaims/JWT
{ it == true }, // the predicate to evaluate the claim value
)in this case the ValidationNel would contain JWTValidationError.RequiredClaimIsMissing("admin") if the claim was
absent in the JWT or JWTValidationError.RequiredClaimIsInvalid("admin") in case it predicate failed (the value was false).
ClaimValidators can be composed using fun validateClaims(...), eg:
fun standardValidation(claims: JWTClaims): ValidatedNel<out JWTVerificationError, JWTClaims> =
validateClaims(notBefore, expired, issuer("thecompany"), subject("1234567890"), audience("http://thecompany.com"))
(claims)Predefined claim validators are bundled for these public claims:
- issuer
- subject
- audience
- expired
- notbefore
verifySignature<JWSRSAAlgorithm>("eyJhbGci...", publicKey)Not the type needs to be specified explicitly and will limit the publicKey parameter to the allowable types. Eg, in
this case it must be an RSAPublicKey.
Combining claim validation and signature verification into one step can be done using the corresponding fun verify(...) (once again, the type parameter is required):
val standardValidation: ClaimsValidator = { claims ->
validateClaims(
notBefore,
expired,
issuer("thecompany"),
subject("1234567890"),
audience("http://thecompany.com")
)(claims)
}
verify<JWSES256Algorithm>("eyJhbGci...", publicKey, standardValidation)The resulting typealias ClaimsValidatorResult = ValidatedNel<out JWTVerificationError, JWTClaims> will either
contain all the validation problems or the valid JWT.
