CI Status Coverage Status Version License Platform Carthage compatible Swift 3.0.x

This library will help you check JWT payload

This library doesn't validate the token, any well formed JWT can be decoded from Base64Url.

Requirements

iOS 8+ and Xcode 8 (for Swift 3.0).

Installation

###CocoaPods

JWTDecode is available through CocoaPods. To install it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

pod "JWTDecode"

###Carthage

In your Cartfile add this line

github "auth0/JWTDecode.swift"

###Manual installation

Download JWTDecode.framework from Releases and add it to your project in Xcode.

##Usage

Just import the framework

import JWTDecode

and decode the token

let jwt = try decode(jwt: token)    

JWT parts

####Header dictionary

jwt.header

####Claims in token body

jwt.body

####Token signature

jwt.signature

Registered Claims

  • "aud" (Audience)
jwt.audience
  • "sub" (Subject)
jwt.subject
  • "jti" (JWT ID)
jwt.identifier
  • "iss" (Issuer)
jwt.issuer
  • "nbf" (Not Before)
jwt.notBefore
  • "iat" (Issued At)
jwt.issuedAt
  • "exp" (Expiration Time)
jwt.expiresAt

Custom Claims

If we also have our custom claims we can retrive them calling claim(name: String) -> Claim then you can try converting the value like

let claim = jwt.claim(name: "email")
if let email = claim.string {
    print("Email in jwt was \(email)")
}

The supported conversions are:

var string: String?
var integer: Int?
var double: Double?
var date: NSDate?
var array: [String]?

Error Handling

If the token is invalid an NSError will be thrown from the decode(token) function.

catch let error as NSError {
    error.localizedDescription
}

What is Auth0?

Auth0 helps you to:

  • Add authentication with multiple authentication sources, either social like Google, Facebook, Microsoft Account, LinkedIn, GitHub, Twitter, Box, Salesforce, amont others, or enterprise identity systems like Windows Azure AD, Google Apps, Active Directory, ADFS or any SAML Identity Provider.
  • Add authentication through more traditional username/password databases.
  • Add support for linking different user accounts with the same user.
  • Support for generating signed Json Web Tokens to call your APIs and flow the user identity securely.
  • Analytics of how, when and where users are logging in.
  • Pull data from other sources and add it to the user profile, through JavaScript rules.
