Instance MethodJWTKit

add(eddsa:kid:parser:serializer:)

Adds an EdDSA key to the collection using an EdDSAKey.

@discardableResult func add(eddsa key: some EdDSAKey, kid: JWKIdentifier? = nil, parser: some JWTParser = DefaultJWTParser(), serializer: some JWTSerializer = DefaultJWTSerializer()) -> Self

Parameters

key: The EdDSAKey used for EdDSA signing. EdDSA keys are known for their short signature and key sizes, which contribute to their efficiency and speed.
kid: An optional JWKIdentifier (Key ID). Providing this identifier allows the JWT kid header field to reference this specific signer.
jsonEncoder: An optional custom JSON encoder that conforms to JWTJSONEncoder. If not specified, a default encoder is used for encoding JWT payloads.
jsonDecoder: An optional custom JSON decoder that conforms to JWTJSONDecoder. If not specified, a default decoder is used for decoding JWT payloads.

Return Value

The same instance of the collection (Self), useful for chaining multiple configuration calls.

Discussion

This method incorporates an EdDSA (Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm) signer into the collection.

Usage Example:

let collection = await JWTKeyCollection()
    .addEdDSA(key: myEdDSAKey)
