This is the sample project built by following the "[Basics of Authentication][basics of auth]" guide on developer.github.com - ported to Go. As the Go standard library does not come with built-in web session handling, only the [simple example](https://github.com/github/platform-samples/blob/master/api/ruby/basics-of-authentication/server.rb) was ported. The example also shows how to use the [GitHub golang SDK](https://github.com/google/go-github).

Install and Run project
First, of all, you would need to follow the steps in the GitHub OAuth Developer Guide to register an OAuth application with callback URL
http://localhost:4567/callback.Copy the client id and the secret of your newly created app and set them as environmental variables:
export GH_BASIC_SECRET_ID=<application secret>export GH_BASIC_CLIENT_ID=<client id>Make sure you have Go installed; then retrieve the modules needed for the go-github client library by running
go get github.com/google/go-github/githubandgo get golang.org/x/oauth2on the command line.Finally, type
go run server.goon the command line.This command will run the server at
localhost:4567. Visithttp://localhost:4567with your browser to get your GitHub email addresses revealed (after authorizing the GitHub OAuth App).If you should get any errors while redirecting to GitHub, double check your environmental variables and the callback URL you set while registering your OAuth app.
