Std.App.Jwt.PublicKey

type

This declaration introduces a public type.

What it does

A public key an identity provider publishes, and the algorithm it signs with.

A provider publishes its keys as numbers rather than as a file: a JWKS

carries an RSA key as a modulus and an exponent, and a curve key as the two

coordinates of a point, each base64url. So that is what this takes.

A key is named by `kid` because a provider holds several and rotates them;

a token says in its header which one signed it, and checking the wrong one

fails in a way that looks exactly like a forgery.
