Omniauth::ProductHunt

ProductHunt's OAuth Strategy for OmniAuth.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'omniauth-producthunt'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install omniauth-producthunt

Usage

OmniAuth::Strategies::ProductHunt is simply a Rack middleware. Read the OmniAuth docs for detailed instructions: https://github.com/intridea/omniauth.

First, create a new application at https://api.producthunt.com/v1/oauth/applications. Your callback URL must be something like https://example.com/auth/producthunt/callback. ProductHunt requires https even for development, so make sure you set up something that can support it.

Here's a quick example, adding the middleware to a Rails app in config/initializers/omniauth.rb. This example assumes you're exporting your credentials as environment variables.

Notice that omniauth-producthunt will always inject public and private scopes, so it can retrieve the required information.

Rails.application.config.middleware.use OmniAuth::Builder do
  provider :producthunt,
            ENV["PRODUCTHUNT_CLIENT_ID"],
            ENV["PRODUCTHUNT_CLIENT_SECRET"]
end

Now visit /auth/producthunt to start authentication against ProductHunt.
