jwt-decode-ie
Advanced tools
jwt-decode is a small browser library that helps decoding JWTs token which are Base64Url encoded.
IMPORTANT: This library doesn't validate the token, any well formed JWT can be decoded. You should validate the token in your server-side logic by using something like express-jwt, koa-jwt, Owin Bearer JWT, etc.
Install with npm, bower, or downloading from the build directory of this repository.
Use with AMD, browserify or just include with an script tag.
var token = 'eyJ0eXAiO.../// jwt token';
var decoded = jwt_decode(token);
console.log(decoded);
/* prints:
* { foo: "bar",
* exp: 1393286893,
* iat: 1393268893 }
*/
Note: A falsy token will throw an error.
Can also be used with browserify or webpack by doing npm install jwt-decode
and requiring:
var jwtDecode = require('jwt-decode');
Run grunt dev
and fire a browser at http://localhost:9999/test_harness.html.
