OAuth Authentication Examples?

[bryanveloso]

It would be splendid to have an example or two around using the toolkit for "Facebook/Twitter-like" authentication. Considering there are other kits like django-social-auth out there, I'm struggling to find The Easy Way™ to do it apart from depending on and subclassing social-auth's classes.

Hi bryan,

you mean an example that shows how to use the access_token to authenticate the user with a custom django auth backend?

[bryanveloso]

Yes, that. 👍

Hi @bryanveloso , it'd be great if you could take a look at #54 and see if I got the point (I think you could just browse the docs, see commit dd121de)

TIA

@masci — Many thanks for taking the time to do this! After a quick read it does certainly seem straightforward, will the actual backend be included in the library as you have depicted in the doc?

See #54. Merged on master
