PASETO: Platform-Agnostic Security Tokens

Android Implementation of Platform-Agnostic Security Tokens - https://paseto.io

This is a simple layer on top of my Java Paseto library which adds Android support.

Usage

Gradle (top level)

allprojects {
	repositories {
		maven { url  "https://dl.bintray.com/terl/lazysodium-maven" }
	}
}

Gradle (app)

dependencies {
	implementation 'net.aholbrook.paseto.android:meta:0.5.0'
	implementation 'com.jakewharton.threetenabp:threetenabp:1.2.0'
}

Application Class

Paseto requires the Java 8 Time API (JSR 310). Since these APIs are not available on Android, we use the ThreeTen-ABP project to provide JSR 310.

You'll have to initialize the timezone information in your Application.onCreate() method:

@Override public void onCreate() {
	super.onCreate();
	AndroidThreeTen.init(this);
}

More info can be found at the ThreeTen-ABP project page.

Documentation

Please refer to the Java project (the API is identical beyond the initial setup):

Sample Application

A sample Android project is also included in this repository: https://github.com/atholbro/paseto-android/tree/master/sample
