Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
Payload	process(JOSEObject joseObject, C context)	Processes the specified JOSE object (unsecured, JWS or JWE).
Payload	process(JWEObject jweObject, C context)	Processes the specified JWE object by decrypting it.
Payload	process(JWSObject jwsObject, C context)	Processes the specified JWS object by verifying its signature.
Payload	process(PlainObject plainObject, C context)	Processes the specified unsecured (plain) JOSE object, typically by checking its context.
Payload	process(String compactEncodedJOSE, C context)	Parses and processes the specified JOSE object (unsecured, JWS or JWE).

Method Detail

process

Payload process(String compactEncodedJOSE,
                C context)
         throws ParseException,
                BadJOSEException,
                JOSEException

Parses and processes the specified JOSE object (unsecured, JWS or JWE).

Parameters:

compactEncodedJOSE - The JOSE object, compact-encoded to a URL-safe string. Must not be null.

context - Optional context, null if not required.

Returns:

The payload on success.

Throws:

ParseException - If the string couldn't be parsed to a valid JOSE object.

BadJOSEException - If the JOSE object is rejected.

JOSEException - If an internal processing exception is encountered.

process

Payload process(JOSEObject joseObject,
                C context)
         throws BadJOSEException,
                JOSEException

Processes the specified JOSE object (unsecured, JWS or JWE).

Parameters:

joseObject - The JOSE object. Must not be null.

context - Optional context, null if not required.

Returns:

The payload on success.

Throws:

BadJOSEException - If the JOSE object is rejected.

JOSEException - If an internal processing exception is encountered.

process

Payload process(PlainObject plainObject,
                C context)
         throws BadJOSEException,
                JOSEException

Processes the specified unsecured (plain) JOSE object, typically by checking its context.

Parameters:

plainObject - The unsecured (plain) JOSE object. Not null.

context - Optional context, null if not required.

Returns:

The payload on success.

Throws:

BadJOSEException - If the unsecured (plain) JOSE object is rejected.

JOSEException - If an internal processing exception is encountered.

process

Payload process(JWSObject jwsObject,
                C context)
         throws BadJOSEException,
                JOSEException

Processes the specified JWS object by verifying its signature. The key candidate(s) are selected by examining the JWS header and / or the message context.

Parameters:

jwsObject - The JWS object. Not null.

context - Optional context, null if not required.

Returns:

The payload on success.

Throws:

BadJOSEException - If the JWS object is rejected, typically due to a bad signature.

JOSEException - If an internal processing exception is encountered.

process

Payload process(JWEObject jweObject,
                C context)
         throws BadJOSEException,
                JOSEException

Processes the specified JWE object by decrypting it. The key candidate(s) are selected by examining the JWS header and / or the message context.

Parameters:

jweObject - The JWE object. Not null.

context - Optional context of the JWE object, null if not required.

Returns:

The payload on success.

Throws:

BadJOSEException - If the JWE object is rejected, typically due to failed decryption.

JOSEException - If an internal processing exception is encountered.
