Bug#1086162: RFP: nginx-auth-jwt -- Implements client authorization by validating the provided JSON Web Token (JWT)



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : nginx-auth-jwt
  Version         : 0.7.0
  Upstream Author : kjdev <kjclev@gmail.com>
* URL             : https://github.com/kjdev/nginx-auth-jwt
* License         : MIT License
  Programming Lang: C
  Description     : Implements client authorization by validating the provided JSON Web Token (JWT)

The nginx-auth-jwt project provides a module for NGINX to handle JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication. 
This module allows NGINX to verify and authenticate incoming requests based on JWTs, which are commonly 
used for secure, stateless user authentication across web applications and APIs.

This package is only yet available for Alpine Linux and provides an open replacement for commercial
libraries like http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_auth_jwt_module.html. I use the alpine version
for several docker containers where it works great. For all Debian installations I miss this package.

I'm not familiar with creating debian packages, and I'm not the author, but I am a frequent user
and would like this package to spread. I will help wherever I can. I am looking for someone to do
the basic inclusion of this package.
