Where the function to read the payload after encode?

[SittiphanSittisak]

After encoding in the dart server, the token was sent to the flutter app. Where is the function to read payload from this token in the flutter app? (Or I must create custom function or use a package ?)

I used this way to use token coming from server

try {
  final jwt = JWT.verify(
    response.data,
    SecretKey("YOUR_SECRET_KEY"),
  );

  log('Payload: ${jwt.payload}');

  return jwt.payload; <---- HERE GET YOUR PAYLOAD FROM JWT
} on JWTExpiredError {
  log('jwt expired');
} on JWTError catch (ex) {
  log(ex.message);
}

Hi @yuriboeira11tx . I don't want to store the secret key on the Flutter app. I think this is not secure.

Hello @SittiphanSittisak,

I just added a new function JWT.decode in this new version (https://pub.dev/packages/dart_jsonwebtoken/versions/2.6.0)

Hopefully this will meet your needs

Hi @jonasroussel, thank you so much 🦦 This makes code beautiful and there is no need to use more packages.

(
          ? JWT.decode(jwt)
          : JWT.verify(jwt, SecretKey(secretKey))
).payload;
