What Hacker News says

Python Social Auth¹ by Matías Aguirre is a great library that was abstracted from battle-tested Django Social Auth. Authomatic² by Peter Hudec is good as well. Flask Social³ by Matt Wright is worth a look, too. You can find example implementations with different DBs in the examples directories of the projects. I've used everything from Redis and MongoDB to SQLite to store user information. It all depends on your goals. My framework of choice is Flask most of the time.

Ask HN: What do you use for Flask social/oauth login?

I'm using Flask to develop a project (https://github.com/rahimnathwani/measure-anything). I've used Flask for a few small things before, but this time I'm trying to do better by: - Instead of having everything in a single .py file, using Python packages and Flask blueprints to make the code more modular. - Having a way to distinguish between different users - Tests (I haven't written any tests yet) I'm using Flask because I find Python comfortable, and I was scared off by the amount of convention I encountered when I researched Rails and Django. Both Two Scoops of Django, and Michael Hartl's Rails Tutorial, are excellent, but the learning curve to having a basic project working seemed too long. Maybe I'm wrong. Anyway, this is just to say that I realise I made a choice not to use a 'batteries included' framework, so I shouldn't expect

social auth to be easy. I've seen three different modules for social auth in Flask: - https://github.com/omab/python-social-auth - https://github.com/mattupstate/flask-social - https://github.com/wooyek/flask-social-blueprint Do you guys use one of these, or roll your own using Flask-OAuthlib? I'm sure my ideal flow is pretty common: click a Facebook or Google button, click 'authorise', have the software auto-create an account, and then log me in. I'm almost there with Flask-Social; I still need to enter my email address and a password before the account is created, but I think I can fix that as long as I can get an email address from somewhere.
