How to access jwt-payload from rodauth object?

[wuarmin]

Hey,

Why it is not possible to access the jwt_payload from a rodauth-object? Why jwt_payload is not a public method?

class Userinfo < Auth::Action
  def handle(req, res)
    req.env["rodauth"] # NoMethodError: private method `jwt_payload' called for an instance of #<Class:0x00007fe14175e890>
  end
end

I don't want to load the account via account!, when it's not necessary, cause I just need an attribute from the jwt_payload.

Thanks

In general, rodauth methods are private unless there is a reason for them to be public. This gives more flexibility for future changes. If you'd like jwt_payload to be public, please submit a pull request with an example of why you want it to be public (the example given doesn't show why).

Oh, thanks, I understand.

Here's the reason, why I want jwt_payload to be public:
