Installation
============
You can install ``PyJWT`` with ``pip``:
.. code-block:: console
$ pip install pyjwt
.. _installation_cryptography:
Cryptographic Dependencies (Optional)
-------------------------------------
If you are planning on encoding or decoding tokens using certain digital
signature algorithms (like RSA or ECDSA), you will need to install the
cryptography_ library. This can be installed explicitly, or as a required
extra in the ``pyjwt`` requirement:
.. code-block:: console
$ pip install pyjwt[crypto]
The ``pyjwt[crypto]`` format is recommended in requirements files in
projects using ``PyJWT``, as a separate ``cryptography`` requirement line
may later be mistaken for an unused requirement and removed.
