Credits

This project has been inspired by Try Carbon (alt text), the test environment for Carbon PHP.

The following articles and projects were very useful for the development of this project:

Login process

GitHub

Process flow Steps:

  • Register the app on GitHub to obtain the ClientID and ClientSecret for the app
  • From the browser the client makes a request to the https://github.com/login/oauth/authorize with the appropriate app's ClientID
  • The above operation allows the user to authorizes the client to access the user's GitHub data and redirects the user to the callback URL we defined when registering app
  • Now (here on the server) with the use of the obtained RequestToken in addition to ClientID and ClientSecret we call https://github.com/login/oauth/access_token to request an API AccessToken
  • If all the values we've provided are valid, the API will respond with the AccessToken for client to make authorised requests to the GitHub API, which we store in the Local Storage.

Development

Set your env variables in .env.
