Install
composer require level51/silverstripe-jwt-utils
| Module Version | PHP Version | 
|---|---|

Example
use Level51\JWTUtils\JWTUtils; use Level51\JWTUtils\JWTUtilsException; class MyTokenController extends Controller { private static $allowed_actions = ['token']; public function token() { try { $payload = JWTUtils::inst()->byBasicAuth($this->request); return json_encode($payload); } catch(JWTUtilsException $e) { return $this->httpError(403, $e->getMessage()); } } }
With correct config and credentials there will be a payload like the following:
{
	"token": "eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJtZW1iZXJJZCI6MSwiaXNzIjoiaHR0cDpcL1wvc2lsdmVyZ3JvdW5kLm1lXC8iLCJleHAiOjE1MTgyNzMwMjIsImlhdCI6MTUxNzY2ODIyMiwicmF0IjoxNTE3NjY4MjIyLCJqdGkiOiI0ZjIyMjViNS0wMzE5LTQ3YTMtYWNjMy1jOWJlNDk4MDc1NTIifQ.vQLLzmB7rWkwQDomAuC6Bfm-J0ITsIfFq4wL8UMAAJs",
