Reddit OAuth2 Strategy for OmniAuth 1.0.
Supports the OAuth 2.0 server-side and client-side flows. Read the Reddit docs for more details: http://www.reddit.com/dev/api/oauth
Add to your Gemfile:
gem 'omniauth-reddit', :git => 'git://github.com/switchgrowth/omniauth-reddit.git'Then bundle install.
OmniAuth::Strategies::Reddit is simply a Rack middleware. Read the OmniAuth 1.0 docs for detailed instructions: https://github.com/intridea/omniauth.
Here's a quick example, adding the middleware to a Rails app in config/initializers/omniauth.rb:
Rails.application.config.middleware.use OmniAuth::Builder do
provider :reddit, ENV['REDDIT_KEY'], ENV['REDDIT_SECRET']
endscope: A comma-separated list of permissions you want to request from the user. See the Reddit docs for a full list of available permissions:- http://www.reddit.com/dev/api/oauth
- https://ads-api.reddit.com/docs/v3/
The Reddit authorization remains on their V1 API as of this writing, and the V1 /me endpoint works, but does not return the kind of user information we would typically expect. Using the Advertising (v3) /me endpoint returns the information we would expect, so this strategy uses that endpoint to grab user information instead of the V1 /me.
