How to ignore my static folder with Json Web Token (JWT)

I'm using JWT to secure my app.

I created a folder named public who store my img.

I want to get theses images from my app.

app.use("/public", express.static(__dirname + '/public'));

I try to add '/public/* or just '/public' to ignore this route but when i try to get my images i receive this message : {"message":"Invalid Token"}

How can do to JWT ignore all url with /public/

Thanks :)

I'm assuming you validate the jwt using a middleware. I that case, just put the express.static middleware before the jwt middleware. That way, requests to '/public' will be handled by the express.static middleware, and won't reach the jwt middleware. (This of course means that these requests will not be validated by the jwt middleware.)
