Create UserDetails from JWT claims

[jkerak]

If I understand the code correctly in JwtAuthenticationTokenFilter, on every request for data from the api, a database call is made to build the UserDetails, based on username. Would it not be better create the UserDetails based on the claims as parsed from the JWT?

Cheers,

Jim

You're right. You're solution would also work and make the database calls unnecessary. In other scenarios it could be necessary to load more information than it is present in the token. Because this is just a demo I leave it as it is, but I mention your comment in the code.
