This sounds like a good use-case for using the cache. I'd create a SecurityTokenService class with a single getToken method. This method would do the following:
-
Check the cache for an existing token (which will automatically be false if the expiration time has passed)
-
If no token is found, generate a new token and store it in the cache
-
Return the token
The only downside is that the token will be reset whenever you use the cache:clear command.
