Vault JWT Secrets Plugin

Purpose

The purpose of this plugin is to allow vault to sign JWT tokens. This is based on the spec at hashicorp/vault#1986, but currently only supporting JWT (not JWE and JWS as outlined in the spec).

Tools

• ./build.sh builds the plugin, computes the hash, and places both in the ./build folder
• ./docker.sh builds a docker image named vault-jose that will mount the plugin when it starts, then starts it
• ./smoke/smoke.sh runs a smoke test of the plugin: build, install in vault, and perform basic configuration and signing
