oxide-auth

A OAuth2 server library, for use in combination with actix or other frontends, featuring a set of configurable and pluggable backends.

About

oxide-auth aims at providing a comprehensive and extensible interface to managing oauth2 tokens on a server. While the core package is agnostic of the used frontend, an optional actix and a gotham adaptor is provided with the default configuration. Through an interface designed with traits, the frontend is as easily pluggable as the backend.

Example

$ cargo run --example authorization_actix

In the example folder you can find an interactive example. This configures a server, registers a public client and initializes a resource requiring an authorization token. A client is also activated which can be used to access the resource. The example assumes the user to be the validated resource owner, who can deny or allow the request by the client.

Additional

A more or less comprehensive list of changes is contained in the changelog. Sometimes less as larger releases and reworks profit from a rough overview of the changes more than a cumulative list of detailed features.

For some hints on upgrading from older versions see the migration notes.
