Plans to publish project in maven central #2

Closed fkrauthan closed 9 years ago

fkrauthan commented 9 years ago

Is there any plans to publish this library to maven central so it can be used easily for projects?

ToastShaman commented 9 years ago

@fkrauthan Hi, certainly can do. This started as a weekend hack and I never thought people would actually want to use it. I need to see how to publish to maven central because I've never done that before and I should probably write some better documentation first (see #3).

@fkrauthan I've just seen that Atlassian released a JWT library as well.

It might make more sense to wrap this existing library for creating and verifying tokens with my Dropwizard Authenticator. What do you think? Can you tell me more about your current use case?

I'm creating a app with a backend of microservices. I wanna use JWT for authentication between my microservices.

Hi, I hope you are pleased to heat that I've started the process to be able to publish to Maven Central.
