Lambda API Gateway support for JSON Web Tokens

==============================================

API Gateway custom Lambda function for JSON Web Token: https://jwt.io/introduction/

To Generate your own private key

--------------------------------

```

openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem -nodes

```

Upload to AWS

-------------

Log into the AWS console and create an empty "jwtAuthorize" function using Node.js.

Create or copy your public key as "cert.pem" in this folder.

Run

```

npm install

grunt deploy --account-id=

```

Tie this function to your AWS API Gateway

-----------------------------------------

Go to the AWS console and choose your API gateway. Under "Resources" choose "Custom Authorizers".

Create a new authorizer with the identityToken source of `method.request.header.Authorization`

and a Token validation expression of `Bearer [^\.]+\.[^\.]+\.[^\.]+` and associate it with your newly

created jwtAuthorizer Lambda function.
