Create JWT using a Brainpool EC Key

See more JSON Web Token (JWT) Examples

Demonstrates how to create a JWT using an EC private key. This is for JOSE headers having an "alg" member with any of the following values:
  • BP160R1
  • BP192R1
  • BP224R1
  • BP256R1
  • BP320R1
  • BP384R1
  • BP512R1

This example also demonstrates how to include time constraints:

  • nbf: Not Before Time
  • exp: Expiration Time
  • iat: Issue At Time
