jwt-eddsa

A library extending the ruby-jwt gem with EdDSA algorithms. Based on RFC 8037.

NOTE: This gem is still WIP

Work is currently done in ruby-jwt to allow extending the algorithms.

Plan is to replace rbnacl with something else in the near future.

Will only work with the WIP branch, so adding the following to your the Gemfile should do the trick:

gem "jwt", github: "anakinj/ruby-jwt", branch: "extendable-algos"
gem "jwt-eddsa"

require "jwt/eddsa" # not verified if this actually works

private_key = RbNaCl::Signatures::Ed25519::SigningKey.new("b" * 32)
token = JWT.encode({pay: "load"}, private_key, "EdDSA")
payload, header = JWT.decode(token, private_key.verify_key, true, algorithm: "EdDSA")

bundle install
bundle exec rake
