Python Social Auth

For those using python-social-auth with Django, omab has also produced a number of examples that aren't contained in the main PSA repo or docs. These were a real time-saver the last time I worked on a project using it.

psa-allauth https://github.com/omab/psa-allauth

An attempt to demonstrate feature-parity with django-allauth. Demonstrates: Signup of both local and social accounts; Connecting more than one social account to a local account; Disconnecting a social account (require setting a password if only the local account remains); Optional instant-signup for social accounts (no questions asked); E-mail address management (multiple e-mail addresses, setting a primary); Password forgotten flow; E-mail address verification flow.

A nice product, but it should be noted that every additional authorization method you add to your product is a very high value and often mis-implemented weak point!

Sorry, dumb question: why is this on HN today? Was there some major change in a recent release? Or is it just that the OP just discovered it?

I have no objection to either reason; I just want to make sure I didn't miss it if there were a major update that added new functionality.

Very timely, I'm currently working on an oauth provider and client in Flask.

Having a single library for all Python oauth clients is a great idea.

IMO, simplifying the use of oauth in a library that is widely used and reviewed is way better than leaving it to individual implementers.

Interesting, although I don't know if I like the decision to leave password check functionality for the "classic" auth types completely to the user.

Does this support OpenID Connect? (as distinct from OpenID)
