Why getKey doesn't get called?

If jwt.verify is called asynchronous, secretOrPublicKey can be a function that should fetch the secret or public key

I have following function:

const client = jwksClient({
  jwksUri: `${process.env.AUTH0_DOMAIN}/.well-known/jwks.json`
});
const getKey = (header, cb) => {
  client.getSigningKey(header.kid, (err, key) => {
    var signingKey = key.publicKey || key.rsaPublicKey;
    cb(null, signingKey);
  });
};

const result = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
      jwt.verify(token, getKey, options, (err, decoded) => {
        if (err) {
          console.log("token verification failed:", err.message);
          reject(err);
        } else {
          resolve(decoded);
        }
      });
    });

Any idea why getKey doesn’t get called?

I have the same problem, that getKey isn’t called. I tried adding various console.log statements, but the implementation for getKey is not executed. I also tried version 8.3.0 and 8.4.0.

I downloaded your project and used one jwks url and it worked fine 🤔 If you don’t have a jwks uri you can easily remove the code calling client.getSigningKey and return a hardcoded secret, you will see it is called.
