Test Apple push notification using an APNs Auth Key:

#!/bin/bash

# Get curl with HTTP/2 and openssl with ECDSA: 'brew install curl-openssl'
curl=/usr/local/opt/curl-openssl/bin/curl
openssl=/usr/local/opt/openssl/bin/openssl

See the discussion on Stack Overflow.

Apple now have documentation for this method to Send a Push Notification Using a Token.

Also, have a look at how you might decode a JSON Web Token from the command-line.
