Token Generation

You can use \Firebase\JWT\JWT::encode() of the firebase/php-jwt lib, which this plugin depends on, to generate tokens.

The payload must have the "sub" (subject) claim whose value is used to query the Users model and find record matching the "id" field.

Ideally you should also specify the token expiry time using exp claim.

You can set the queryDatasource option to false to directly return the token's payload as user info without querying datasource for matching user record.
