Nimbus JOSE+JWT is a popular open source (Apache 2.0) Java library which implements the Javascript Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) spec suite and the closely related JSON Web Token (JWT) spec.
The library can create, examine, serialise and parse the following JOSE and JWT objects (in compact format):
- Plain (unsecured) JOSE objects.
- JSON Web Signature (JWS) objects.
- JSON Web Encryption (JWE) objects.
- JSON Web Key (JWK) objects and JSON Web Key (JWK) Sets.
- Plain, signed and encrypted JSON Web Tokens (JWTs).
The repository has a new home at https://bitbucket.org/connect2id/nimbus-jose-jwt
