Antenna is a small library that helps integrating JWT (JSON Web Token) for projects using the Symfony Security Component.

In order to use this library you need to set up two authenticators in your firewall.

The first is `UsernamePasswordAuthenticator` which uses the security flow to authenticate through and then "hijack" the request by rendering a body with a token `{ "token" : "json web token here" }`.

The second uses the `Authorization: Bearer ` header style to authenticate your users by validating the JWT.

If you use Symfony Full Stack there is a [AntennaBundle](https://github.com/flint/AntennaBundle) which provides a simple integration.

Also look in the bundle if you want to know how to integrate with other libraries that use Symfony Security.
