- Godoc - explore the go-jwt-middleware documentation.
- Docs site — explore our docs site and learn more about Auth0.
- Quickstart - our guide for adding go-jwt-middleware to your app.
This library follows thesame support policy as Go. The last two major Go releases are actively supported and compatibility issues will be fixed. While you may find that older versions of Go may work, we will not actively test and fix compatibility issues with these versions.
- Go 1.23+
go get github.com/auth0/go-jwt-middleware/v2
package mainimport ("context""encoding/json""log""net/http""github.com/auth0/go-jwt-middleware/v2""github.com/auth0/go-jwt-middleware/v2/validator"jwtmiddleware"github.com/auth0/go-jwt-middleware/v2")varhandler=http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter,r*http.Request) {claims,ok:=r.Context().Value(jwtmiddleware.ContextKey{}).(*validator.ValidatedClaims)if!ok {http.Error(w,"failed to get validated claims",http.StatusInternalServerError)return}payload,err:=json.Marshal(claims)iferr!=nil {http.Error(w,err.Error(),http.StatusInternalServerError)return}w.Header().Set("Content-Type","application/json")w.Write(payload)})funcmain() {keyFunc:=func(ctx context.Context) (interface{},error) {// Our token must be signed using this data.return []byte("secret"),nil}// Set up the validator.jwtValidator,err:=validator.New(keyFunc,validator.HS256,"https://<issuer-url>/",[]string{"<audience>"},)iferr!=nil {log.Fatalf("failed to set up the validator: %v",err)}// Set up the middleware.middleware:=jwtmiddleware.New(jwtValidator.ValidateToken)http.ListenAndServe("0.0.0.0:3000",middleware.CheckJWT(handler))}
After running that code (go run main.go) you can then curl the http server from another terminal:
$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiaWF0IjoxNTE2MjM5MDIyLCJpc3MiOiJnby1qd3QtbWlkZGxld2FyZS1leGFtcGxlIiwiYXVkIjoiZ28tand0LW1pZGRsZXdhcmUtZXhhbXBsZSJ9.xcnkyPYu_b3qm2yeYuEgr5R5M5t4pN9s04U1ya53-KM" localhost:3000That should give you the following response:
{ "CustomClaims": null, "RegisteredClaims": { "iss": "go-jwt-middleware-example", "aud": "go-jwt-middleware-example", "sub": "1234567890", "iat": 1516239022 }}The JWT included in the Authorization header above is signed withsecret.
To test how the response would look like with an invalid token:
$ curl -v -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiaWF0IjoxNTE2MjM5MDIyfQ.yiDw9IDNCa1WXCoDfPR_g356vSsHBEerqh9IvnD49QE" localhost:3000That should give you the following response:
...< HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized< Content-Type: application/json{"message":"JWT is invalid."}...For more examples please check theexamples folder.
