Basic JWT

This crate provide basic functions to:

• Sign JWT
• Parse and validate JWT

Basic usage:

let claims = ...; // note : claims must be serializable

// Generate a key pair. Private and public key are both serializable
let priv_key = JWTPrivateKey::generate_ec384_signing_key().unwrap();
let pub_key = priv_key.to_public_key().unwrap();

// Create a JWT for the given claims (note: standard claims: sub, iss, ...) are not
// automatically added if they are missing
let jwt = priv_key.sign_jwt(&claims).expect("Failed to sign JWT!");

// Validate signed JWT
let claims_out = pub_key
            .validate_jwt::<Claims>(&jwt)
            .expect("Failed to validate JWT!");
