Function encode_token 

Source 
pub fn encode_token(header: &Header, id: String, key: &EncodingKey) -> String
Expand description

Encodes user information into a JSON Web Token (JWT).

This function creates a new JWT with the provided user ID as the subject, sets the issued-at and expiration times (60 minutes from now), and signs it using the given encoding key. The resulting token is a serialized Claims.

§Arguments

  • header: The JWT header, specifying the algorithm (e.g., HS256).
  • id: The user ID (String) to be embedded as the subject (sub) claim.
  • key: The EncodingKey used to sign the JWT.

§Returns

A String representing the encoded JWT containing Claims.

§Panics

Panics if the token encoding fails for any reason (e.g., invalid key).
