Description: ==================
        Django Social Auth
        ==================
        
        Django Social Auth is an easy to setup social authentication/authorization
        mechanism for Django projects.
        
        Crafted using base code from django-twitter-oauth_ and django-openid-auth_,
        implements a common interface to define new authentication providers from
        third parties.
        
        
        ----
        Demo
        ----
        There's a demo at http://social.matiasaguirre.net/, it lacks Orkut support
        at the moment.
        
        
        --------
        Features
        --------
        This application provides user registration and login using social sites
        credentials, some features are:
        
        - Registration and Login using social sites using the following providers
          at the moment:
        
            * `Google OpenID`_
            * `Google OAuth`_
            * `Yahoo OpenID`_
            * OpenId_ like myOpenID_
            * `Twitter OAuth`_
            * `Facebook OAuth`_
        
          Some contributions added support for:
        
            * `LiveJournal OpenID`_
            * `Orkut OAuth`_
        
        - Basic user data population and signaling, to allows custom fields values
          from providers response
        
        - Multiple social accounts association to single users
        
        - Custom User model override if needed (`auth.User`_ by default)
        
        
        ------------
        Dependencies
        ------------
        Dependencies that must be meet to use the app:
        
        - OpenId_ support depends on python-openid_
        
        - OAuth_ support depends on python-oauth_
        
        - Twitter and Facebook support demands an application registration
          on their corresponding sites.
        
        
        ------------
        Installation
        ------------
        
        From pypi_::
        
            $ pip install django-social-auth
        
        or::
        
            $ easy_install django-social-auth
        
        or clone from github_::
        
            $ git clone git://github.com/omab/django-social-auth.git
        
        and add social_auth to PYTHONPATH::
        
            $ export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:$(pwd)/django-social-auth/
        
        or::
        
            $ cd django-social-auth
            $ sudo python setup.py install
        
        
        -------------
        Configuration
        -------------
        - Add social_auth to PYTHONPATH and installed applications::
        
            INSTALLED_APPS = (
                ...
                'social_auth'
            )
        
        - Add desired authentication backends to AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS_ setting::
        
            AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
                'social_auth.backends.twitter.TwitterBackend',
                'social_auth.backends.facebook.FacebookBackend',
                'social_auth.backends.google.GoogleOAuthBackend',
                'social_auth.backends.google.GoogleBackend',
                'social_auth.backends.yahoo.YahooBackend',
                'social_auth.backends.contrib.LiveJournalBackend',
                'social_auth.backends.contrib.orkut.OrkutBackend',
                'social_auth.backends.OpenIDBackend',
                'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
            )
        
          Note: this was introduced in a recent change and it's not backward
          compatible, take into account that saved sessions won't be able to login
          because the backend string stored in session (like backends.TwitterBackend)
          won't match the new paths.
        
        - The app will try to import custom backends from the sources defined in::
        
            SOCIAL_AUTH_IMPORT_BACKENDS = (
                'myproy.social_auth_extra_services',
            )
        
          This way it's easier to add new providers, check the already defined ones
          in social_auth.backends for examples.
        
          Take into account that backends must be defined in AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS_
          or Django won't pick them when trying to authenticate the user.
        
        - Setup Twitter, Facebook, Orkut and Google OAuth keys (see OAuth_ section
          for details)::
        
            TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY     = ''
            TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET  = ''
            FACEBOOK_APP_ID          = ''
            FACEBOOK_API_SECRET      = ''
            ORKUT_CONSUMER_KEY       = ''
            ORKUT_CONSUMER_SECRET    = ''
            GOOGLE_CONSUMER_KEY      = ''
            GOOGLE_CONSUMER_SECRET   = ''
        
        - Setup login URLs::
        
            LOGIN_URL          = '/login-form/'
            LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/logged-in/'
            LOGIN_ERROR_URL    = '/login-error/'
        
          Check Django documentation at `Login URL`_ and `Login redirect URL`_
        
        - Configure authentication and association complete URL names to avoid
          possible clashes::
        
            SOCIAL_AUTH_COMPLETE_URL_NAME  = 'complete'
            SOCIAL_AUTH_ASSOCIATE_URL_NAME = 'associate_complete'
        
        - Add URLs entries::
        
            urlpatterns = patterns('',
                ...
                url(r'', include('social_auth.urls')),
                ...
            )
        
        - Sync database to create needed models::
        
            ./manage syncdb
        
        - Not mandatory, but recommended::
        
            SOCIAL_AUTH_DEFAULT_USERNAME = 'new_social_auth_user'
        
          or::
        
            import random
            SOCIAL_AUTH_DEFAULT_USERNAME = lambda: random.choice(['Darth Vader', 'Obi-Wan Kenobi', 'R2-D2', 'C-3PO', 'Yoda'])
        
          final user name will have an integer suffix in case it's already taken.
        
        - OAuth_ authentication will store access_token by default, set this value
          to False to avoid such behavior::
        
            SOCIAL_AUTH_EXTRA_DATA = False
        
        - It's possible to override the used User model if needed::
        
            SOCIAL_AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'myapp.CustomUser'
        
          This class *must* have a custom `Model Manager`_ with a create_user method
          that resembles the one on `auth.UserManager`_.
        
          Also, it's highly recommended that this class define the following fields::
        
            username   = CharField(...)
            last_login = DateTimeField(blank=True)
            is_active  = BooleanField(...)
        
          and the method::
        
            is_authenticated():
                ...
        
          These are needed to ensure a better django-auth integration, in other case
          `login_required`_ won't be usable. A warning is displayed if any of these are
          missing. By default `auth.User`_ is used.
        
          Check example application for implementation details, but first, please take
          a look to `User Profiles`_, it might be what you were looking for.
        
        
        -------
        Signals
        -------
        A pre_update signal is sent when user data is about to be updated with new
        values from authorization service provider, this apply to new users and already
        existent ones. This is useful to update custom user fields or `User Profiles`_,
        for example, to store user gender, location, etc. Example::
        
            from social_auth.signals import pre_update
            from social_auth.backends import FacebookBackend
        
            def facebook_extra_values(sender, user, response, details):
                user.gender = response.get('gender')
                return True
        
            pre_update.connect(facebook_extra_values, sender=FacebookBackend)
        
        New data updating is made automatically but could be disabled and left only to
        signal handler if this setting value::
        
            SOCIAL_AUTH_CHANGE_SIGNAL_ONLY = False
        
        is set to True.
        
        
        ------
        OpenId
        ------
        OpenId_ support is simpler to implement than OAuth_. Google and Yahoo
        providers are supported by default, others are supported by POST method
        providing endpoint URL.
        
        
        -----
        OAuth
        -----
        OAuth_ communication demands a set of keys exchange to validate the client
        authenticity prior to user approbation. Twitter, Facebook and Orkut
        facilitates these keys by application registration, Google works the same,
        but provides the option for unregisterd applications.
        
        Check next sections for details.
        
        
        -------
        Twitter
        -------
        Twitter offers per application keys named "Consumer Key" and
        "Consumer Secret". To enable Twitter these two keys are needed.
        Further documentation at `Twitter development resources`_:
        
        - Register a new application at `Twitter App Creation`_,
        
        - mark the "Yes, use Twitter for login" checkbox, and
        
        - fill "Consumer Key" and "Consumer Secret" values::
        
              TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY
              TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET
        
        - You don't need to specify the URL callback
        
        
        --------
        Facebook
        --------
        Facebook works similar to Twitter but it's simpler to setup and
        redirect URL is passed as a parameter when issuing an authorization.
        Further documentation at `Facebook development resources`_:
        
        - Register a new application at `Facebook App Creation`_, and
        
        - fill "App Id" and "App Secret" values in values::
        
              FACEBOOK_APP_ID
              FACEBOOK_API_SECRET
        
        - also it's possible to define extra permissions with::
        
             FACEBOOK_EXTENDED_PERMISSIONS = [...]
        
        
        -----
        Orkut
        -----
        Orkut offers per application keys named "Consumer Key" and
        "Consumer Secret". To enable Orkut these two keys are needed.
        
        Check `Google support`_ and `Orkut API`_ for details on getting
        your consumer_key and consumer_secret keys.
        
        - fill "Consumer Key" and "Consumer Secret" values::
        
              ORKUT_CONSUMER_KEY
              ORKUT_CONSUMER_SECRET
        
        - add any needed extra data to::
        
              ORKUT_EXTRA_DATA = ''
        
        - configure extra scopes in::
        
              ORKUT_EXTRA_SCOPES = [...]
        
        
        ------------
        Google OAuth
        ------------
        Google provides "Consumer Key" and "Consumer Secret" keys to
        registered applications, but also allows unregistered application to
        use their authorization system with, but beware that this method
        will display a security banner to the user telling that the application
        is not trusted.
        
        Check `Google OAuth`_ and make your choice.
        
        - fill "Consumer Key" and "Consumer Secret" values::
        
              GOOGLE_CONSUMER_KEY
              GOOGLE_CONSUMER_SECRET
        
        anonymous values will be used if not configured as described in their
        `OAuth reference`_
        
        
        - configure the display name to be used in the "grant permissions" dialog
          that Google will display to users in::
        
              GOOGLE_DISPLAY_NAME = ''
        
          shows 'Social Auth' by default, but that might not suite your application.
        
        - setup any needed extra scope in::
        
              GOOGLE_OAUTH_EXTRA_SCOPE = [...]
        
        check which Apps are included in their `Google Data Protocol Directory`_
