Phalcon\Security\JWT\Builder : how to set a custom claim

I'm switching from the JWT library made by Lcobucci to the native one offered by Phalcon 4.1 I can't figure out how to define custom claims. I can set all the standard ones thanks to the public functions on the Builder class, but the setClaim function is a private one.

How can I define a custom claim?

As a workaround I created an object with all my claims, json_encoded it and set it as the jwt's subject

Phalcon\Security\JWT\Builder::setClaim() is a private method

you can extend the builder class and add a method to add claims

example:

<?php

use Phalcon\Security\JWT\Builder;

class MyBuilder extends Builder
{
    public function addClaim(string $name, $value): Builder
    {
        return $this->setClaim($name, $value);
    }
}
