* Installation
drush dl features services oauth2_server
git clone https://github.com/dashohoxha/oauth2_loginprovider
drush en oauth2_loginprovider
* Usage
Although most of the configurations are done automatically, the oauth2
clients that will use this login provider have to be registered. This
is done on 'admin/structure/oauth2-servers/manage/oauth2/clients'.
Either modify the 'Client Secret' and 'Redirect URI' of the existing
Test client, or register new clients.
Then clients can access the user profile with a POST request at:
https://server.example.org/oauth2/user/profile (after being
authenticated and having an access_token).
* About
This module allows users to login to other sites through your site
using OAuth2. For example, assume that are two related sites A and
B and users have to use both of them. Instead of having users to
register in both of them, we can install this module on site A and
allow users to login to site B using the credentials (username and
password) that they use for site A. Site B can also retrieve and use
data from the profile of the user that is stored on the site A, like
the email, picture, etc. It is the same idea as the module
'oauthloginprovider' but for oauth2.
This module depends on the module 'oauth2_server', which provides
the oauth2 authentication, and on the modules 'services' and
'rest_server' which provide the endpoint and routing (callback) for
the service 'user/profile'. It is like a glue that makes the
necessary configurations to tie all these modules togather and to
make things work as expected.
There is nothing that cannot be done manually from the admin UI of
Drupal. However this module saves the user from the trouble of
making all the necessary configurations manually, and provides a
quick way to get things done for the users that are not so familiar
with oauth2 and rest services. It also provides a standard
configuration for a Drupal oauth2 login provider, which can be used
for integration with other modules (for example connector modules).
