Python Social Auth is an easy-to-setup social authentication/registration mechanism with support for several frameworks and auth providers.

Crafted using base code from django-social-auth, it implements a common interface to define new authentication providers from third parties, and to bring support for more frameworks and ORMs.

This application provides user registration and login using social sites credentials. Here are some features, which is probably not a full list yet.

Multiple frameworks are supported:

• Django
• Flask
• Pyramid
• Webpy
• Tornado

More frameworks can be added easily (and should be even easier in the future once the code matures).

Several services are supported by simply defining backends (new ones can be easily added or current ones extended):

• Amazon OAuth2 http://login.amazon.com/website
• Angel OAuth2
• AOL OpenId http://www.aol.com/
• Appsfuel OAuth2
• Behance OAuth2

Basic user data population, to allow custom field values from provider's response.

Multiple social accounts can be associated to a single user.

Extensible pipeline to handle authentication/association mechanism in ways that suits your project.

Dependencies that must be met to use the application:

• OpenId support depends on python-openid
• OAuth support depends on requests-oauthlib
• Several backends demand application registration on their corresponding sites and other dependencies like sqlalchemy on Flask and Webpy.

• Other dependencies:

  • six
  • requests
