//! Implements a library for verifying JSON Web Tokens using the
//! `RS256` signature algorithm.
//!
//! This library is specifically aimed at developers that consume
//! tokens from services which provide their RSA public keys in
//! [JWKS][] format.
//!
//! ## Usage example (token with `kid`-claim)
//!
//! ```rust
//! extern crate alcoholic_jwt;
//!
//! use alcoholic_jwt::{JWKS, Validation, validate, token_kid};
//!
//! fn validate_token() {
//!     // serde instances provided
//!     let jwks: JWKS = some_http_client(jwks_url).json();
//!
//!     let token: String = some_token_fetcher();
//!
//!     // Several types of built-in validations are provided:
//!     let validations = vec![
//!       Validation::Issuer("some-issuer"),
//!       Validation::Audience("some-audience"),
//!       Validation::SubjectPresent,
//!     ];
//!
//!     // Extracting a KID is about the only safe operation that can be
//!     // done on a JWT before validating it.
//!     let kid = token_kid(token).expect("No 'kid' claim present in token");
//!
//!     let jwk = jwks.find(kid).expect("Specified key not found in set");
//!
//!     match validate(token, jwk, validations) {
//!       Valid => println!("Token is valid!"),
//!       InvalidSignature(reason) => println!("Token signature invalid: {}", reason),
//!       InvalidClaims(reasons) => {
//!           println!("Token claims are totally invalid!");
//!           for reason in reasons {
//!               println!("Validation failure: {}", reason);
//!           }
//!       },
//!     }
//! }
//! ```
