# JWT

### Usage

	$ go get github.com/nilslice/jwt

package jwt provides methods to create and check JSON Web Tokens. It only implements HMAC 256 encryption and has a very small footprint, ideal for simple usage when authorizing clients

```go

package main

import (

	auth "github.com/nilslice/jwt"

	"fmt"

	"net/http"

	"strings"

)

func main() {

	http.HandleFunc("/auth/new", func(res http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {

		claims := map[string]interface{}{"exp": time.Now().Add(time.Hour * 24).Unix()}

		token, err := auth.New(claims)

		if err != nil {

			http.Error(res, "Error", 500)

			return

		}

		res.Header().Add("Authorization", "Bearer "+token)

		res.WriteHeader(http.StatusOK)

	})

	http.HandleFunc("/auth", func(res http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {

		userToken := strings.Split(req.Header.Get("Authorization"), " ")[1]

		if auth.Passes(userToken) {

			fmt.Println("ok")

		} else {

			fmt.Println("no")

		}

	})

	http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)

}

```
