A quick and simple JWT encoding and decoding would look something like this:
.. code-block:: python
>>> from joserfc import jwt
>>> from joserfc.jwk import OctKey
>>> key = OctKey.import_key("secret")
>>> encoded = jwt.encode({"alg": "HS256"}, {"k": "value"}, key)
>>> encoded
'eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJrIjoidmFsdWUifQ.ni-MJXnZHpFB_8L9P9yllj3RNDfzmD4yBKAyefSctMY'
>>> token = jwt.decode(encoded, key)
>>> token.header
{'alg': 'HS256', 'typ': 'JWT'}
>>> token.claims
{'k': 'value'}
>>> claims_requests = jwt.JWTClaimsRegistry()
>>> claims_requests.validate(token.claims)
