| 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. |

| 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:

The package is licensed under MIT license and requires Python 2.6.
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.
