Why cant I use jwt.verify() from jsonwebtoken in react?
When I use the function of jwt.verify() or jwt.decode() in react, it shows me a lot of errors.
The errors are:
ERROR in ./node_modules/jwa/index.js 5:13-30
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'crypto' in 'C:\Users\client\node_modules\jwa'
BREAKING CHANGE: webpack < 5 used to include polyfills for node.js core modules by default.
This is no longer the case. Verify if you need this module and configure a polyfill for it.
If you want to include a polyfill, you need to:
- add a fallback 'resolve.fallback: { "crypto": require.resolve("crypto-browserify") }'
- install 'crypto-browserify'
If you don't want to include a polyfill, you can use an empty module like this:
resolve.fallback: { "crypto": false }
