Authomatic

Authomatic is an authorization/authentication client library for Python web applications inspired by Alex Vagin’s Simpleauth. In fact, I almost named it Deadsimpleauth, but that name would be too long for a succinct library.

For more info visit the project page at http://peterhudec.github.io/authomatic.

Features

  • Loosely coupled.

  • Tiny but powerful interface.

  • The python-openid library is the only optional dependency.

  • CSRF protection.

  • Framework agnostic thanks to adapters. Out of the box support for Django, Flask and Webapp2.

  • Ready to accommodate future authorization / authentication protocols.

  • Makes calls to provider APIs a breeze.

  • Supports asynchronous requests.

  • JavaScript library as a bonus.

  • Out of the box support for:

    • OAuth 1.0a providers: Bitbucket, Flickr, Meetup, Plurk,

    Twitter, Tumblr, UbuntuOne, Vimeo, Xero, Xing and Yahoo.

    • OAuth 2.0 providers: Behance, Bitly, Cosm, DeviantART,

    Eventbrite, Facebook, Foursquare, GitHub, Google, LinkedIn, PayPal, Reddit, Viadeo, VK, WindowsLive, Yammer and Yandex.

License and Requirements

The package is licensed under MIT license and requires Python 2.6 and higher, but doesn't support Python 3 yet.

Live Demo

There is a Google App Engine based live demo app running at http://authomatic-example.appspot.com which makes use of most of the features.
