Build

You can build the RPM / DEB packages for pgjwt using pig build:

pig build pkg pgjwt         # build RPM / DEB packages

Install

You can install pgjwt directly. First, make sure the PGDG and PIGSTY repositories are added and enabled:

pig repo add pgsql -u          # Add repo and update cache

Install the extension using pig or apt/yum/dnf:

Install

pig install pgjwt;          # Install for current active PG version

pig

pig ext install -y pgjwt -v 18  # PG 18
pig ext install -y pgjwt -v 17  # PG 17
pig ext install -y pgjwt -v 16  # PG 16
pig ext install -y pgjwt -v 15  # PG 15
pig ext install -y pgjwt -v 14  # PG 14

dnf

dnf install -y pgjwt_18       # PG 18
dnf install -y pgjwt_17       # PG 17
dnf install -y pgjwt_16       # PG 16
dnf install -y pgjwt_15       # PG 15
dnf install -y pgjwt_14       # PG 14

apt

apt install -y postgresql-18-pgjwt   # PG 18
apt install -y postgresql-17-pgjwt   # PG 17
apt install -y postgresql-16-pgjwt   # PG 16
apt install -y postgresql-15-pgjwt   # PG 15
apt install -y postgresql-14-pgjwt   # PG 14

Create Extension:

CREATE EXTENSION pgjwt CASCADE;  -- requires: pgcrypto

Usage

pgjwt: JSON Web Tokens for PostgreSQL

Requires the pgcrypto extension.

Sign a Token

SELECT sign(
    '{"sub":"1234567890","name":"John Doe","admin":true}',
    'secret'
);

Returns a JWT string like: eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOi...

Verify a Token

SELECT * FROM verify(
    'eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiYWRtaW4iOnRydWV9.TJVA95OrM7E2cBab30RMHrHDcEfxjoYZgeFONFh7HgQ',
    'secret'
);

Returns:

header	payload	valid
`{"alg":"HS256","typ":"JWT"}`	`{"sub":"1234567890","name":"John Doe","admin":true}`	`t`

Algorithm Selection

sign() and verify() accept an optional third argument for the algorithm: 'HS256' (default), 'HS384', or 'HS512'.

SELECT sign('{"data":"value"}', 'secret', 'HS384');
