cf_jwt

A ColdFusion CFC to manage the encoding and decoding of JWTs (JSON Web Tokens)

Getting Started

Instantiate the component and pass in the required properties like so:

var secretKey = createUUID();
var clientId  = 'BF23473E-A6AA-477D-ADDEB3A6DC24D28E';
var issuer    = 'https://test.monkehserver.com/oauth/token';

var oCFJWT = new cf_jwt(
	secretKey = secretKey,
	issuer    = issuer,
	audience  = clientId
);

You then need to build your payload and send it to be encoded:

var payload = {
	"sub"  : 1000,
	"iss"  : issuer,
	"aud"  : clientId,
	"iat"  : 1470002703,
	"exp"  : 1602839647,
	"scope": "read write"
};

var sEncode = oCFJWT.encode( payload );

The above payload example uses the same issuer and clientId value being sent through to the CF_JWT object. These are used for validation within the object to ensure the values set are the same contained within the payload.

sEncode contains the JSON Web Token string value.

To decode the JWT string, simply pass it through like so:

var stuDecodedData = oCFJWT.decode( sEncode );

Testing

The component has been tested on Adobe ColdFusion 9 and 10, Lucee 4.5 and Lucee 5.

This component is based upon the original https://github.com/jsteinshouer/cf-jwt-simple
