Portable WinRT/.NET/Xamarin (PCL) experimental implementation of Javascript Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) and JSON Web Token (JWT)

##Goal: Attempt to re-implement portion of jose-rt supported algorithms based on PCLCrypto . This will allow to cross target single .nupkg for multiple platforms.

Supported JWA algorithms

Signing

HMAC signatures with HS256, HS384 and HS512.
RSASSA-PKCS1-V1_5 signatures with RS256, RS384 and RS512.

Notes:

* Actual supported algorithms depends on target platform. See PCLCrypto compatibility list.

Which version?

v0.0.3, depends on PCLCrypto v1.0.86 - if you targeting Win8.x Store, this is what you should use as of now.
v0.0.4 and above depends on PCLCrypto v2.0.147 - if you app targeting Win8.x Store - it most likely will be rejected due to https://github.com/AArnott/PCLCrypto/issues/97. See https://github.com/dvsekhvalnov/jose-pcl/issues/4 for more discussions.

Usage

Creating Plaintext (unprotected) Tokens

string payload = @"{""hello"" : ""world""}";

string token = JosePCL.Jwt.Encode(payload, JwsAlgorithm.None, null);

Creating signed Tokens

HS256, HS384 and HS512 family

HS256, HS384, HS512 signatures require byte[] array key of corresponding length

var secretKey = new byte[]{164,60,194,0,161,189,41,38,130,89,141,164,45,170,159,209,69,137,243,216,191,131,47,250,32,107,231,117,37,158,225,234};

string payload = @"{""hello"" : ""world""}";

string token = JosePCL.Jwt.Encode(payload, JwsAlgorithm.HS256, secretKey);

RS256, RS384, RS512 family

RS256, RS384, RS512 signatures require PCLCrypto.ICryptographicKey private key of corresponding length. JosePCL provides convenient helpers to load RSA keys from commonly used PEM encoded formats. See Obtaining keys section for details.

string payload = @"{""hello"" : ""world""}";

Verifying and Decoding Tokens

Decoding json web tokens is fully symmetric to creating signed or encrypted tokens:

Obtaining keys

JosePCL provides set of helpers to import PEM encoded keys or other formats.

RSA keys

JosePCL.Keys.Rsa.PublicKey.Load(string) imports PCLCrypto.ICryptographicKey from PEM encoded public key formats

PKCS#1 RSA Public Key

X509 Public Subject key info

Can be obtained from certificate via openssl x509 -inform PEM -in certificate.cer -outform PEM -pubkey -noout > public.key

JosePCL.Keys.Rsa.PrivateKey.Load(string) imports PCLCrypto.ICryptographicKey from PEM encoded private key formats

PKCS#1 RSA Private Key without password protection

Can be obtained from .p12 via openssl pkcs12 -in keys.p12 -nocerts -out privateKey.pem and then openssl.exe rsa -in privateKey.pem -out privateKey.pem to remove password protection.

PKCS#8 Raw RSA Private Key

Can be converted from PKCS#1 private key via openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -inform PEM -outform PEM -in privateKey.pem -out privateKey.key -nocrypt
