JWT_ACCESS_TOKEN_EXPIRES not working as expected #11

Closed ben-mvi closed 5 years ago

ben-mvi commented 5 years ago

I set the following in my config file: JWT_ACCESS_TOKEN_EXPIRES = datetime.timedelta(seconds=5*60) expecting the token to expire in 5 minutes but sadly this does not happen... Im not sure exactly how long it takes to expire but I think its about an hour... but could be longer or shorter.... in production, I have it set to 24 hours...but sadly it expires much shorter than that... I wish I could control exactly how long it takes to expire... am I doing something wrong?

JWT_ACCESS_TOKEN_EXPIRES is part of flask-jwt-extended, not flask-jwt-simple. For this extension you are looking for JWT_EXPIRES. You can view the options here: https://flask-jwt-simple.readthedocs.io/en/latest/options.html

Thanks, I originally switched from flask-jwt to flask-jwt-extended and when I did that, I had to switch that variable name..but then when I switched to flask-jwt-simple I didnt think I would have to change it again :) thank you very much.
