How to get JWK set from issuer or client

[grug]

Hi there,

When I initialise an Issuer I get a jwks_uri which is correct. However, I'd like to be able to access the list of keys at that URI. If I wanted to, I could do a fetch on them myself, but I assume that node-openid-client has this built in but I just can't find it anywhere. Can someone point me in the right direction?

For some extra context - I want to use one of the JWK public keys to verify an API request that contains a JWT (I've got an API that is consumed by other services - not frontends/humans)

openid-client has an internal cache and representation, internal and not exposed.

You should. My recommendation for an effortless strategy.

Thank you for such a fast response! I'll give jose a go. Out of curiosity, why isn't it exposed? It doesn't seem uncommon to have an API that is consumed by other services and wanting to verify a JWT against a public cert - or am I missing something here?

It used to be there. I'm sure I had good enough reason not to carry it over.
