I was able to successfully base64Decode a JWT token payload to JSON using the following code without the need for a Java method:
Background:
* def parseJwt =
"""
function(token) {
var base64Url = token.split('.')[1];
var base64Str = base64Url.replace(/-/g, '+').replace(/_/g, "https://stackoverflow.com/");
var Base64 = Java.type('java.util.Base64');
var decoded = Base64.getDecoder().decode(base64Str);
var String = Java.type('java.lang.String')
return new String(decoded)
};
"""
Scenario: JWT Token
Given path 'jwt/authenticate'
And header x-goog-authenticated-user-email="email"
And request {}
When method get
Then status 200
* json result = parseJwt(responseHeaders['Set-Cookie'][0])
* match result == {permissions: [1,2,3], iss: "us", exp: "#number", email: "email"}
Note: It does seem to be required to use json
rather than def
as Karate does better if it parses the string to json itself. Also, you may obtain the token from a header rather than a cookie as in this example if so, just change the responseHeader that you are looking for.
