Bear authentication

Demo of Basic Auth with JWT Token sessions

This is a simple demo of a server that can create a user and login with Basic Authentication, then uses a JWT to authenticate after the user has logged in.

To create a user, POST to /signup with

{
    "username": "yourname",
    "password": "yourpass"
}

You will be sent a token. You can use the token to access the /secret route. To access it, you must supply the token in the Bearer Authentication scheme.

Some simple security features are employed like an exp claim for expiration of the token.
