# node-jws [](http://travis-ci.org/brianloveswords/node-jws)
|
||||
|
||||
An implementation of [JSON Web Signatures](http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-signature.html).
|
||||
|
||||
This was developed against `draft-ietf-jose-json-web-signature-08` and
|
||||
implements the entire spec **except** X.509 Certificate Chain
|
||||
signing/verifying (patches welcome).
|
||||
|
||||
There are both synchronous (`jws.sign`, `jws.verify`) and streaming
|
||||
(`jws.createSign`, `jws.createVerify`) APIs.
|
||||
|
||||
# Install
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ npm install jws
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
# Usage
|
||||
|
||||
## jws.ALGORITHMS
|
||||
|
||||
Array of supported algorithms. The following algorithms are currently supported.
|
||||
|
||||
alg Parameter Value | Digital Signature or MAC Algorithm
|
||||
----------------|----------------------------
|
||||
HS256 | HMAC using SHA-256 hash algorithm
|
||||
HS384 | HMAC using SHA-384 hash algorithm
|
||||
HS512 | HMAC using SHA-512 hash algorithm
|
||||
RS256 | RSASSA using SHA-256 hash algorithm
|
||||
RS384 | RSASSA using SHA-384 hash algorithm
|
||||
RS512 | RSASSA using SHA-512 hash algorithm
|
||||
PS256 | RSASSA-PSS using SHA-256 hash algorithm
|
||||
PS384 | RSASSA-PSS using SHA-384 hash algorithm
|
||||
PS512 | RSASSA-PSS using SHA-512 hash algorithm
|
||||
ES256 | ECDSA using P-256 curve and SHA-256 hash algorithm
|
||||
ES384 | ECDSA using P-384 curve and SHA-384 hash algorithm
|
||||
ES512 | ECDSA using P-521 curve and SHA-512 hash algorithm
|
||||
none | No digital signature or MAC value included
|
||||
|
||||
## jws.sign(options)
|
||||
|
||||
(Synchronous) Return a JSON Web Signature for a header and a payload.
|
||||
|
||||
Options:
|
||||
|
||||
* `header`
|
||||
* `payload`
|
||||
* `secret` or `privateKey`
|
||||
* `encoding` (Optional, defaults to 'utf8')
|
||||
|
||||
`header` must be an object with an `alg` property. `header.alg` must be
|
||||
one a value found in `jws.ALGORITHMS`. See above for a table of
|
||||
supported algorithms.
|
||||
|
||||
If `payload` is not a buffer or a string, it will be coerced into a string
|
||||
using `JSON.stringify`.
|
||||
|
||||
Example
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
const signature = jws.sign({
|
||||
header: { alg: 'HS256' },
|
||||
payload: 'h. jon benjamin',
|
||||
secret: 'has a van',
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## jws.verify(signature, algorithm, secretOrKey)
|
||||
|
||||
(Synchronous) Returns `true` or `false` for whether a signature matches a
|
||||
secret or key.
|
||||
|
||||
`signature` is a JWS Signature. `header.alg` must be a value found in `jws.ALGORITHMS`.
|
||||
See above for a table of supported algorithms. `secretOrKey` is a string or
|
||||
buffer containing either the secret for HMAC algorithms, or the PEM
|
||||
encoded public key for RSA and ECDSA.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the `"alg"` value from the signature header is ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## jws.decode(signature)
|
||||
|
||||
(Synchronous) Returns the decoded header, decoded payload, and signature
|
||||
parts of the JWS Signature.
|
||||
|
||||
Returns an object with three properties, e.g.
|
||||
```js
|
||||
{ header: { alg: 'HS256' },
|
||||
payload: 'h. jon benjamin',
|
||||
signature: 'YOWPewyGHKu4Y_0M_vtlEnNlqmFOclqp4Hy6hVHfFT4'
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## jws.createSign(options)
|
||||
|
||||
Returns a new SignStream object.
|
||||
|
||||
Options:
|
||||
|
||||
* `header` (required)
|
||||
* `payload`
|
||||
* `key` || `privateKey` || `secret`
|
||||
* `encoding` (Optional, defaults to 'utf8')
|
||||
|
||||
Other than `header`, all options expect a string or a buffer when the
|
||||
value is known ahead of time, or a stream for convenience.
|
||||
`key`/`privateKey`/`secret` may also be an object when using an encrypted
|
||||
private key, see the [crypto documentation][encrypted-key-docs].
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
|
||||
// This...
|
||||
jws.createSign({
|
||||
header: { alg: 'RS256' },
|
||||
privateKey: privateKeyStream,
|
||||
payload: payloadStream,
|
||||
}).on('done', function(signature) {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// is equivalent to this:
|
||||
const signer = jws.createSign({
|
||||
header: { alg: 'RS256' },
|
||||
});
|
||||
privateKeyStream.pipe(signer.privateKey);
|
||||
payloadStream.pipe(signer.payload);
|
||||
signer.on('done', function(signature) {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## jws.createVerify(options)
|
||||
|
||||
Returns a new VerifyStream object.
|
||||
|
||||
Options:
|
||||
|
||||
* `signature`
|
||||
* `algorithm`
|
||||
* `key` || `publicKey` || `secret`
|
||||
* `encoding` (Optional, defaults to 'utf8')
|
||||
|
||||
All options expect a string or a buffer when the value is known ahead of
|
||||
time, or a stream for convenience.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
|
||||
// This...
|
||||
jws.createVerify({
|
||||
publicKey: pubKeyStream,
|
||||
signature: sigStream,
|
||||
}).on('done', function(verified, obj) {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// is equivilant to this:
|
||||
const verifier = jws.createVerify();
|
||||
pubKeyStream.pipe(verifier.publicKey);
|
||||
sigStream.pipe(verifier.signature);
|
||||
verifier.on('done', function(verified, obj) {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Class: SignStream
|
||||
|
||||
A `Readable Stream` that emits a single data event (the calculated
|
||||
signature) when done.
|
||||
|
||||
### Event: 'done'
|
||||
`function (signature) { }`
|
||||
|
||||
### signer.payload
|
||||
|
||||
A `Writable Stream` that expects the JWS payload. Do *not* use if you
|
||||
passed a `payload` option to the constructor.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
payloadStream.pipe(signer.payload);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### signer.secret<br>signer.key<br>signer.privateKey
|
||||
|
||||
A `Writable Stream`. Expects the JWS secret for HMAC, or the privateKey
|
||||
for ECDSA and RSA. Do *not* use if you passed a `secret` or `key` option
|
||||
to the constructor.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
privateKeyStream.pipe(signer.privateKey);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Class: VerifyStream
|
||||
|
||||
This is a `Readable Stream` that emits a single data event, the result
|
||||
of whether or not that signature was valid.
|
||||
|
||||
### Event: 'done'
|
||||
`function (valid, obj) { }`
|
||||
|
||||
`valid` is a boolean for whether or not the signature is valid.
|
||||
|
||||
### verifier.signature
|
||||
|
||||
A `Writable Stream` that expects a JWS Signature. Do *not* use if you
|
||||
passed a `signature` option to the constructor.
|
||||
|
||||
### verifier.secret<br>verifier.key<br>verifier.publicKey
|
||||
|
||||
A `Writable Stream` that expects a public key or secret. Do *not* use if you
|
||||
passed a `key` or `secret` option to the constructor.
|
||||
|
||||
# TODO
|
||||
|
||||
* It feels like there should be some convenience options/APIs for
|
||||
defining the algorithm rather than having to define a header object
|
||||
with `{ alg: 'ES512' }` or whatever every time.
|
||||
|
||||
* X.509 support, ugh
