A JOSE implementation in Python
This is a JOSE implementation that is meant to be simple to use, both on and off of AppEngine.
>>> from jose import jws
>>> signed = jws.sign({'a': 'b'}, 'secret', algorithm='HS256')
'eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJhIjoiYiJ9.jiMyrsmD8AoHWeQgmxZ5yq8z0lXS67_QGs52AzC8Ru8'>>> jws.verify(signed, 'secret', algorithms=['HS256'])
{'a': 'b'}The following algorithms are currently supported.
| Algorithm Value | Digital Signature or MAC Algorithm |
|---|---|
| HS256 | HMAC using SHA-256 hash algorithm |
| HS384 | HMAC using SHA-384 hash algorithm |
| HS512 | HMAC using SHA-512 hash algorithm |
| RS256 | RSASSA using SHA-256 hash algorithm |
| RS384 | RSASSA using SHA-384 hash algorithm |
| RS512 | RSASSA using SHA-512 hash algorithm |
This library is based heavily on the work of the guys over at PyJWT.
