import (
"crypto/rand"
"encoding/base64"
"fmt"
)
func main() {
// Define the desired length of the secret key in bytes
keyLength := 64 // Adjust the length as needed
// Create a byte slice to hold the random bytes
key := make([]byte, keyLength)
// Generate random bytes using crypto/rand
_, err := rand.Read(key)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error generating random bytes:", err)
return
}
// Encode the random bytes in base64 to create a string
secretKey := base64.StdEncoding.EncodeToString(key)
fmt.Println("Generated JWT secret key:", secretKey)
}
