Devise::JWT::Cookie

devise-jwt-cookie is a devise extension based on devise-jwt. It should be used alongside devise-jwt.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'devise-jwt-cookie', '~> 0.4.0'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Usage

First you need to setup up and configure devise and devise-jwt. This gem hooks into devise-jwt to add an httpOnly cookie with the JWT.

Model configuration

You have to update the user model to be able to use the cookie method. For example:

class User < ApplicationRecord
  devise :database_authenticatable,
         :jwt_cookie_authenticatable,
         :jwt_authenticatable, jwt_revocation_strategy: Blacklist
end

Configuration reference

This library can be configured by calling jwt_cookie on the devise config object:

Devise.setup do |config|
  config.jwt do |jwt|
    # config for devise-jwt goes here
  end
  config.jwt_cookie do |jwt_cookie|
    # ...
    jwt_cookie.secure = false if Rails.env.development?
  end
end

name

The name of the cookie. Defaults to access_token.

domain

The domain the cookie should be issued to. Will be omitted if not set.

secure

If a secure cookie should be set, this means the cookie must be sent over a secure connection. Defaults to true.
