oa-google-openid

This is an Omniauth’s open_id stretegy with the identifier name setted to ‘www.google.com/accounts/o8/id’

You can use it as:

provider :google_open_id

Why?

Why don’t just use ‘open_id’ strategy with the specified name and the identifier?

Because Devise, that I like to use, saves providers into the hash with the strategie’s name as a key and you can’t use two strategies with the same name in the application. Devise remember the last one only.

Example:

config.omniauth :open_id, OpenID::Store::Filesystem.new('/tmp')
config.omniauth :open_id, nil, :name => 'google', :identifier => 'https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id'

Devise forgets about first :open_id and remember the last one with google’s identifier only.

Now it’s easy to fix:

config.omniauth :open_id, OpenID::Store::Filesystem.new('/tmp')
config.omniauth :google_open_id

There is now such problem when use Omniauth directly without Devise.

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

  • Fork the project.

  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.

  • Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.

  • Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)

  • Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
