Python 3.5 is EOL so we decide to drop its support. Version 1.7.1
is
the last one supporting Python 3.0-3.5.
We've kept this around for a long time, mostly for environments that didn't allow installing cryptography.
Dropped the included cli entry point.
We no longer need to use mypy Python 2 compatibility mode (comments)
Tokens are returned as string instead of a byte string
Removed ExpiredSignature
, InvalidAudience
, and
InvalidIssuer
. Use ExpiredSignatureError
,
InvalidAudienceError
, and InvalidIssuerError
instead.
Use
jwt.decode(encoded, key, algorithms=["HS256"], options={"verify_exp": False})
instead.
Use jwt.decode(encoded, key, options={"verify_signature": False})
instead.
Example: jwt.decode(encoded, key, algorithms=["HS256"])
.
For example, instead of
jwt.decode(encoded, key, algorithms=["HS256"], options={"require_exp": True})
,
use
jwt.decode(encoded, key, algorithms=["HS256"], options={"require": ["exp"]})
.
Introduce PyJWK
, PyJWKSet
, and PyJWKClient
.
