node-jose-browserify

An advanced version of Cisco's node-jose module that works in both browser and the server. It is compatible with node.js and angular

Refer to https://github.com/cisco/node-jose for documentation.

Install

    npm i node-jose-browserify

Angular Usage

Import and use as any other package. All the methods will be supported in the browser, just as in node.js.

import * as jose from 'node-jose-browserify';

The following changes are required to make few node-modules available in the browser

  • angular compilerOptions for stream

    In tsconfig.json , compilerOptions add

    "paths": {
    "stream": ["../node_modules/stream-browserify/index.js"]
}

    This is to avoid the below error

    ERROR in ./node_modules/browserify-zlib/lib/index.js. Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'stream' in '***/node_modules/browserify-zlib/lib'

  • polyfil for global object In polyfills.ts add

    // Polyfill for node-jose
(window as any)['global'] = window;

    This is to avoid the below error

    Uncaught ReferenceError: global is not defined
