socialauth 0.2.0

Python Social Auth

A library for social sign-in capability from providers such as Twitter and Facebook.

Many social authentication solutions exist. I wanted something that didn’t have strong ties to an HTTP framework or storage backend. Preferably, I didn’t want something that dealt with a storage backend at all. This library uses JSON web tokens instead of sessions to deal with intermediate information in the OAuth flow (such as a token secret).
