⚠️ This service is for local/development use only.

Small HTTP service that is meant to approximate some parts of the Auth0 browser based authentication flow for generating JSON Web Tokens (JWTs), to make development easier.

• can use either the provided RSA key in private.pem for signing JWTs, or one randomly generated at startup
• serves a JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) at /.well-known/jwks.json
• /authorize offers up a HTML form for generating JWTs, that can also be prefilled with values from query parameters
• POSTing to /authorize will respond with the signed JWT
• POSTing to /authorize?redirect_uri=... will redirect to the specified redirect_uri with the JWT in the access_token field of the location.hash

go run cmd/fake-jwt-server/main.go

The server will listen on http://0.0.0.0:8080. To use a newly generated RSA key for the JWKS:

FAKE_JWT_SERVER_GENERATE_RSA_KEY=true go run cmd/fake-jwt-server/main.go

You could get a signed JWT that expires in ~1 year like so.
