Async-OAuthlib
==============

This project provides first-class OAuth library support for `Aiohttp `_.

Installation
-------------

To install requests and async-oauthlib you can use pip:

.. code-block:: bash

$ pip install requests Async-OAuthlib

The OAuth 1 workflow
--------------------

OAuth 1 can seem overly complicated and it sure has its quirks. Luckily,
async_oauthlib hides most of these and let you focus at the task at hand.

Accessing protected resources using async_oauthlib is as simple as:

.. code-block:: pycon

>>> from async_oauthlib import OAuth1Session
>>> twitter = OAuth1Session('client_key',
client_secret='client_secret',
resource_owner_key='resource_owner_key',
resource_owner_secret='resource_owner_secret')
>>> url = 'https://api.twitter.com/1/account/settings.json'
>>> r = twitter.get(url)

Before accessing resources you will need to obtain a few credentials from your
provider (e.g. Twitter) and authorization from the user for whom you wish to
retrieve resources for. You can read all about this in the full
`OAuth 1 workflow guide on RTD `_.

The OAuth 2 workflow
--------------------

OAuth 2 is generally simpler than OAuth 1 but comes in more flavours. The most
common being the Authorization Code Grant, also known as the WebApplication
flow.

Fetching a protected resource after obtaining an access token can be extremely
simple. However, before accessing resources you will need to obtain a few
credentials from your provider (e.g. Google) and authorization from the user
for whom you wish to retrieve resources for. You can read all about this in the
full `OAuth 2 workflow guide on RTD `_.

.. code-block:: pycon

>>> from async_oauthlib import OAuth2Session
>>> target = OAuth2Session()
>>> response = await target.request()
