+Module for generating and verifying JSON Web Tokens.
+
+ Note: From version 2.0.1 the namespace has changed from jwt to python_jwt, in order to avoid conflict with PyJWT.
+ Note: Versions 1.0.0 and later fix a vulnerability in JSON Web Token verification so please upgrade if you're using this functionality. The API has changed so you will need to update your application. verify_jwt now requires you to specify which signature algorithms are allowed.
+ Uses jwcrypto to do the heavy lifting.
+ Supports RS256, RS384, RS512, PS256, PS384, PS512, HS256, HS384, HS512, ES256, ES384, ES512, ES256K, EdDSA and none signature algorithms.
+ Unit tests, including tests for interoperability with jose.
+ Supports Python 2,7 and 3.6+. Note: generate_jwt returns the token as a Unicode string, even on Python 2.7.
