== NAME

jose-jwk-eql - Checks if two keys are equal

== SYNOPSIS

*jose jwk eql* -i JWK -i JWK

== OVERVIEW

The *jose jwk eql* command determines whether two keys are equal. It compares
the same properties defined for use in a JWK thumbprint (RFC 7638). This means
that optional metadata isn't considered for comparison.

== OPTIONS

* *-i* JSON, *--input*=JSON :
  Parse JWK(Set) from JSON

* *-i* FILE, *--input*=FILE :
  Read JWK(Set) from FILE

* *-i* -, *--input*=- :
  Read JWK(Set) standard input

== EXAMPLES

Generate a key and modify optional metadata then test equality:

    $ jose jwk gen -i '{"alg":"ES256"}' -o key.jwk
    $ jose fmt -j key.jwk -Od alg -o mod.jwk
    $ jose jwk eql -i key.jwk -i mod.jwk
    $ echo $?
    0
