- Documentation: https://docs.authlib.org/en/latest/flask/2/
- Authlib Repo: https://github.com/lepture/authlib
Take a quick look
This is a ready to run example, let's take a quick experience at first. To run the example, we need to install all the dependencies:
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
Set Flask and Authlib environment variables:
# disable check https (DO NOT SET THIS IN PRODUCTION)
$ export AUTHLIB_INSECURE_TRANSPORT=1
Create Database and run the development server:
$ flask initdb
$ flask run
Now, you can open your browser with http://127.0.0.1:5000/, login with any
name you want.
Before testing, we need to create a client:
NOTE: YOU MUST ADD openid SCOPE IN YOUR CLIENT
Let's take authorization_code grant type as an example. Visit:
http://127.0.0.1:5000/oauth/authorize?client_id=${CLIENT_ID}&scope=openid+profile&response_type=code&nonce=abc
After that, you will be redirect to a URL. For instance:
https://example.com/?code=RSv6j745Ri0DhBSvi2RQu5JKpIVvLm8SFd5ObjOZZSijohe0
Copy the code value, use curl to get the access token:
curl -u "${CLIENT_ID}:${CLIENT_SECRET}" -XPOST http://127.0.0.1:5000/oauth/token -F grant_type=authorization_code -F code=RSv6j745Ri0DhBSvi2RQu5JKpIVvLm8SFd5ObjOZZSijohe0
Now you can access the userinfo endpoint:
$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ${access_token}" http://127.0.0.1:5000/oauth/userinfo
