// The jwt package provides an extra feature to protect your claims,
// you can declare what fields of your custom claims structure are required
// (navigate through custom-validations example too).
// Useful when the same key can generate more than one token claims type
// and you want somehow to separate the token claims type (e.g. a refresh token and a access claims).
//
// [1] Just change the default Unmarshal function with the following:
func init() {
	jwt.Unmarshal = jwt.UnmarshalWithRequired
}

// [2] And add a ',required' after your json tags:
type userClaims struct {
	Expiry   int64  `json:"exp"`
	Username string `json:"username,required"`
}
