Some modules to be used to make an optimized oauth flow in a python based streaming app

Class abstraction of an application oauth flow, where the access token is persisted as a file. The token is encrypted using a custom encryption key to avoid persisting the key itself.

The reason I made this is because OAuth2 tokens cost money, thus it is a good idea to use the token until it expires. The token is persisted (encrypted) between runs of the parent code such that the token is completely reusable.

How to use

from oauth_encrypt.client import EncryptedOauth2Client

# Example credentials and encryption
config = {
    "token_url": "lol.com/token",
    "client_id": "something",
    "client_secret": "something_else",
    "scope": "my.scope",
    "encryptionkey": "nDtagLlBTMJBilyIgYTYELAUmZD39hnGa6XaLwlhRVQ=",
}

client = EncryptedOauth2Client(config)


def main():
    """Example using Encrypted Reusable Oauth Client"""
    # Get and print an access token
    r = client.access_token
    print(r)

    # Make a get request
    print(client.get("protected.com"))

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # This can be run as many times as you want, it will only get a new
    # token when the previous one has expired
    main()
