Wordpress JWT Authentication

DEPRECATED - This library is no longer maintained/supported. This plugin targets to add a easy way to authenticate your APIs using JWT. Also, it provides a basic way to match the users and allow you to extend base on your needs easily with a filter. How it works This plugin will check the headers of the requests and if there is an Authorization header will try to log in a user that matches. So it is as easy to check for the current user to authenticate users in your own API. Also, it provides support for the following plugins:

• http://wp-api.org/
• http://docs.woothemes.com/document/woocommerce-rest-api/ And any other that extends Wp Rest Api like http://tweichart.github.io/JSON-API-for-BuddyPress/ for BuddyPress.

1. Install from the WordPress Store or upload the entire wp-jwt-aith folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
3. Access to the plugin settings and configure the keys and how should it match the users.
4. Aud: represents the client id which the JWT was sent.
5. Secret: used to verify the JWT signature
6. Base64 Secret Encoded: it must be active if the secret is base64 encoded and needs to be decoded before checkig the signature.
7. User Property: is the property which much match with the JWT attribute to determine the user.
8. JWT Attribute: should match the User Property to determine the user.

or extend it implementing a filter: add_filter( 'wp_jwt_auth_get_user', 'get_user',10); function get_user($jwt) { ... } To see an example, check the UsersRepo (https://github.com/auth0/wp-jwt-auth/blob/master/lib/JWT_AUTH_UsersRepo.php).
