JSON Web Token (JWT) Service

1. Ensure JWTService.UpdateSecretKey is pulling the SecretKey from the correct location, it defaults to looking in App.config:

   secretKey = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get("SecretKey");

2. Create an instance of JWTService

   JWTService jwtService = new JWTService();

3. Generate a JWT

   string token = jwtService.GenerateToken(new Claim[] { new Claim(ClaimTypes.Email, "name@gmail.com") });

4. Validate a JWT

   bool isValid = jwtService.IsTokenValid(token);

5. Get the claims in a JWT

   // Get the tokens
   var jwtClaims = jwtService.GetTokenClaims(token);
   // Get a specific value
   string email = "";
   email = jwtClaims.Where(x => x.Type.Equals(ClaimTypes.Email.ToString())).FirstOrDefault().Value;
   // Iterate through the tokens
   long expiration= 0;
   foreach(Claim claim in jwtClaims)
   {
       if(claim.Type.Equals("exp"))
           expiration = long.Parse(claim.Value);
       else if (claim.Type.Equals(ClaimTypes.Email.ToString()))
           email = claim.Value;
   }
