Generates tokens for X-TB-TOKEN-AUTH
header when using OpenTok REST API.
npm install --save opentok-token
WARNING: This module does not check for the validity of the data being encoded into the token. It doesn't know about the OpenTok REST API semantics, and you can encode data that doesn't result in a valid token. Its merely a utility. Use the OpenTok Node Server SDK for a more complete module.
var encodeToken = require('opentok-token');
var tokenData = {
session_id: 'SESSIONID',
create_time: 1424221013,
nonce: 50885,
role: 'moderator',
expire_time: 1424307413,
connection_data: '{"name":"value"}'
};
var apiKey = 'APIKEY';
var apiSecret = 'APISECRET'
var token = encodeToken(tokenData, apiKey, apiSecret);
NOTE: The API key, secret, and session ID above are not real.
If you do not specify certain properties of the tokenData
parameter, defaults will be applied for
you.

create_time |
unix timestamp in seconds (integer) | now |
