Structs

Header	A basic JWT header, the alg defaults to HS256 and typ is automatically set to JWT. All the other fields are optional.
TokenData	The return type of a successful call to decode
Validation	Contains the various validations that are applied after decoding a token.

Enums

Algorithm

The algorithms supported for signing/verifying

Functions

dangerous_unsafe_decode	Decode a token without any signature validation into a struct containing 2 fields: claims and header.
decode	Decode a token into a struct containing 2 fields: claims and header.
decode_header	Decode a token and return the Header. This is not doing any kind of validation: it is meant to be used when you don't know which alg the token is using and want to find out.
encode	Encode the header and claims given and sign the payload using the algorithm from the header and the key
sign	Take the payload of a JWT, sign it using the algorithm given and return the base64 url safe encoded of the result.
verify	Compares the signature given with a re-computed signature for HMAC or using the public key for RSA.
