Django-SIWT (Sign In With Twitter)

A reusable app which makes it easy to use Twitter's "Sign In With Twitter" authentication mechanism.

Usage

1. Put the django_siwt folder somewhere on your pythonpath.
2. Add django_siwt to your INSTALLED_APPS. There are no models, ergo there's no need for syncdb.
3. Make sure to set CONSUMER_KEY and CONSUMER_SECRET in your settings.py.
4. Include django_siwt's urls somewhere convenient (say, your project's urls.py).
5. Add some links to django_siwt's signin/signout views from within your templates. Easily accomplished using the url tag: {% url siwt_signin %} and {% url siwt_signout %}.

Take a look in utils.py for a few more tweakable knobs.

History

This project is a cleaned-up, reusable-app-ified version of henriklied's django-twitter-oauth. That application used the standard authentication flow and not "Sign In With Twitter", though the distinction appears largely academic as both seem to operate fine. I wanted to use the sanctioned way though, hence the modifications.
