Description:

Hi,

Is possible to use this library with a custom oath flow ?? For my personal needs, I have an oauth server with a custom grant flow for social login (like password grant flow but with custom params). I need to transmit these JSON params in body:


- grant_type = social
- client_id = ...
- client_secret = ...
- network = Facebook
- access_token ...

and receive a JSON response like this:


- token_type = Bearer
- expires_in = ...
- access_token = ...
- refresh_token = ...

Thanks.

OAuth Provider (Twitter, Github, ..):

I think that it is not supported (only Authorization Code grant type or implicit is supported)
You can't provide a Doc link?

Thank you @phimage, I don't have doc for this flow, it's just a password grant flow customized with username and password parameters renamed by network and access_token. In my app I use two grant flows:

Authorization grant flow for getting access_token from social network (Facebook, Twitter, Google and Uber)
My custom grant flow for authenticating with my server

ok I see
until password grant flow is not supported, I can't provide a way to do this
but when someone or I implement it, I will remember that "username" and "password" parameters name must be customisable
