SYNOPSIS

       jose jws fmt -i JWS [-I PAY] [-o JWS] [-O PAY] [-c]

OVERVIEW

       The  jose  jws  fmt  command  converts  a  JWS into alternative serialization formats. For
       example, it can:

       1.  Attach payload to a detached JWS.

       2.  Detach payload from a JWS.

       3.  Convert JWS Compact Serialization to JWS JSON Serialization.

       4.  Convert JWS JSON Serialization to JWS Compact Serialization.

OPTIONS

       -i JSON, --input=JSON
              Parse JWS from JSON

       -i FILE, --input=FILE
              Read JWS from FILE

       -i -, --input=-
              Read JWS from standard input

       -I FILE, --detached=FILE
              Read decoded payload from FILE

       -I -, --detached=-
              Read decoded payload from standard input

       -o FILE, --output=FILE
              Write JWS to FILE

       -o -, --output=-
              Write JWS to stdout (default)

       -O FILE, --detach=FILE
              Detach payload and decode to FILE

       -O -, --detach=-
              Detach payload and decode to standard output

       -c, --compact
              Output JWS using compact serialization

EXAMPLES

       Attach payload to a detached JWS and emit JWS Compact Serialization:

           $ jose jws fmt -i msg.jws -I msg.txt -o compact.jws -c

       Detach payload from a JWS:

           $ jose jws fmt -i msg.jws -o detached.jws -O msg.txt
