Authenticate against OAuth2 Provider in Python CLIs

• Simple
• Fancy callback page

• Python 3.9+

pip install oauth2-cli-auth

This should work for every provider supporting OIDC e.g. gitlab.com:

from oauth2_cli_auth import get_access_token_with_browser_open, OAuth2ClientInfo

client_info = OAuth2ClientInfo.from_oidc_endpoint(
    "https://gitlab.com/.well-known/openid-configuration",
    client_id="my-client-id",
    scopes=["openid"]
)

try:
    token = get_access_token_with_browser_open(client_info)
    print(f"Obtained token '{token}'")
except ValueError:
    print("Failed to obtain token")

The following should work for almost all use cases, for rest please check the lib docs.

from oauth2_cli_auth import get_access_token_with_browser_open, OAuth2ClientInfo

client_info = OAuth2ClientInfo(
    client_id="<clientId>",
    authorization_url="<authorizeUrl>",
    token_url="<TokenUrl>",
    scopes=["scopeA", "scopeB"]
)

try:
    token = get_access_token_with_browser_open(client_info)
    print(f"Obtained token '{token}'")
except ValueError:
    print("Failed to obtain token")

Building oauth2 integration for Python apps come quite handy, especially with Gitlab integration etc.

It is a bit cumbersome to do it manually everytime, existing solutions are way to overkill to put on this problem. So I created this small library without any dependencies besides the python standard library.
