Looking for guidance on how to use TraktManager.Authentication.authorizeApplication()

[efraimbart]

I cannot seem to figure out the way to use TraktManager.Authentication.authorizeApplication(). It seems to just be making the request via an http client, with no means for user input or to thereafter retrieve the code.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!

Hey any luck on this?

If I recall correctly I forked the code and hacked in a WebView

@shamith16 I dug through my code and it looks like I updated trakt_dart's authorizeApplication() method as follows

  /// Construct then redirect to this URL.
  ///
  /// The Trakt website will request permissions for your app, which the user needs to approve.
  /// If the user isn't signed into Trakt, it will ask them to do so.
  /// Send signup=true if you prefer the account sign up page to be the default.
  Future<void> authorizeApplication({bool? signup}) async {
    final url = Uri.parse(_manager._oauthURL);
    await ChromeSafariBrowser().open(url: url);

    // final response = await _manager.client
    //     .get(url, headers: {"Content-Type": "application/json"});
    //
    // if (![200, 201, 204].contains(response.statusCode)) {
    //   throw TraktManagerAPIError(
    //       response.statusCode, response.reasonPhrase, response);
    // }
  }

and set the return url to a deeplink, and handled then handled the code as below

await traktManager.authentication.getAccessToken(traktCode!);

With the device authentication flow https://trakt.docs.apiary.io/#reference/authentication-devices you can avoid this trick (an example can be found here #2) but there are some bug in current implementation I've done a PR
