Json Web Token Getter

This a command line utility written in Rust. It is supposed to work wtih the jwt_issuer.

It passes a client JWT and a specific scope (tokenization or detokenization) as the request payload. Upon receiving the request, the jwt_issue will issue a JWT with the appropriate scope.

Build the binary

cargo build --release

Run

For tokenization:

./target/release/jwt_getter T

For detokenization:

./target/release/jwt_getter D

The default jwt issuer is https://localhost:8080. For a different server, specify the url as the second parameter.

Logging level

There is no log by default. To set a logging level, use the RUST_LOG environment variable. For example, to turn on the debug log,

RUST_LOG=debug ./target/release/jwt_getter T

Development

The following VS Code plugins are required.

• rust-analyzer
• better toml
• crates
• error lens
• codelldb

To debug the code, build the code first and update the launch.json with the right path to the binary under program.

cargo build -v

Here is a sample launch.json:

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "type": "lldb",
            "request": "launch",
            "name": "rust is fun",
            "program": "${workspaceRoot}/target/debug/jwt_getter",
            "args": ["T"],
            "cwd": "${workspaceRoot}",
            "sourceLanguages": ["rust"]
        }
    ]
}
