jwt-express-auth v0.1.6

JWT User Authorization Middleware

Add the following to any params that require authorization. The tokenParam must match the name of the user_id in the jwt, not the route param.

    var auth = require('jwt-express-auth');
    router.param('user_id', auth({secret:'secret', tokenParam:'id'}));

To generate a jwt token in Ruby.

    require 'jwt'
    JWT.encode({"id" => 1}, "secret")
    => "eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJpZCciOjg5fQ.wUlU3JFv-wQYPfa9NRwh06wJWcOtYErRN23iTvMPTIE"
