Laravel JWT Guard
=================

[](#laravel-jwt-guard)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
 composer require "maslennikov-yv/jwt-guard"

```

Preparation
-----------

[](#preparation)

Place the following code in the boot() method of AuthServiceProvider

```
Auth::extend('jwt', function ($app, $name, array $config) use ($public_key) {
    return new JwtGuard($provider, $request, function ($token) use ($public_key) {
        try {
            $content = JWT::decode($token, new Key($public_key, 'RS256'));
            return property_exists($content, 'sub') ? $content->sub : null;
        } catch (Exception $e) {
            Log::debug($e->getMessage());
        }
        return null;
    });
});

```

This example uses the Firebase JWT library which requires installation:

```
composer require firebase/php-jwt

```

But you can use any other library that allows you to validate JWT and extract useful data from it

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Configure 'api' guard to use jwt as driver in config/auth.php file

```
'guards' => [
    'api' => [
        'driver' => 'jwt',
        'provider' => 'users',
    ],
],

```

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

```
composer test

```
