A generic, spec-compliant, thorough implementation of the OAuth request-signing logic
Project description
A generic, spec-compliant, thorough implementation of the OAuth request-signing logic.
OAuth often seems complicated and difficult-to-implement. There are several prominent libraries for signing OAuth requests, but they all suffer from one or both of the following:
They predate the OAuth 1.0 spec, AKA RFC 5849.
They assume the usage of a specific HTTP request library.
OAuthLib is a generic utility which implements the logic of OAuth without assuming a specific HTTP request object. Use it to graft OAuth support onto your favorite HTTP library. If you’re a maintainer of such a library, write a thin veneer on top of OAuthLib and get OAuth support for very little effort.
Interested in making OAuth requests?
Then you might be more interested in using requests which has OAuthLib powered OAuth support built-in. See the requests OAuth examples for how you can get started.
