So, how would this work if I'm using Python-Social-Auth as the provider as an interface to Django?

Most sites implementing social auth don't do it in the client directly, but as an interface to the oauth and then just trusting that authentication as canon, while simultaneously invoking a non-oAuth login() method at the tail end of the oAuth login. Not sure how this relates directly.

That said, this is a FANtastic, and very necessary module, and hopefully it covers what I think is the most common use pattern.

Satellizer is designed to be used without auth libraries such as Passport (Node), OmniAuth (Ruby). On Python-side all you need is the requests library. It is so by design to avoid relying on third-party libraries. Additionally, if I were to implement it with a server-side auth library there is no choice but to use full page redirects, i.e redirect to Facebook, authorize the app, redirect back to the app.

Thanks a million for the response. I think that's appropriate, but I've found sort of a hybrid solution that I was already working on before satellizer came out, incorporating a fix that looks vaguely like this:

That said, I'm working through piecing that together with satellizer, and I wanted to give you a huge thanks for including the server examples in so many languages, which ought to be of use.
