The expiration time claim.

Syntax

 jwt.getClaimExp([callback])
 jwt.setClaimExp( claimExp, [callback])

Default Value

""

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getClaimExp([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setClaimExp([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This property holds the expiration time claim. The expiration time claim identifies the expiration time on or after which the JWT must not be accepted. This value corresponds to the exp JSON property.

This value is represented as a numeric value containing the number of seconds since the epoch (January 1st 1970). For instance 1498599163.
