## Description

This plugin integrates JWT authentication and automates user creation. The plugin
is written for AAF Rapid Connect, but can be used for other providers too.

Here is how this plugin works:

 1. Generate a secrete key with command: tr -dc ‘[[:alnum:][:punct:]]’ < /dev/urandom
    | head -c32 ;echo
 2. Register the key and call back URL http://yoursite.com/wp-json/jwt-auth/v1/callback
    with your authentication provider.
 3. Specify authentication and user creation parameters. Those marked with * are required.
