Now I got it :-)

The "Installed App Flow" requires user interaction; we first generate a
URL that the user has to navigate to. Then, the user either pastes a
displayed code into the app being authorized, or the OAuth provider
redirects the user's browser to a webserver that is running on
localhost. This webserver is provided by the library and the flow should
work automatically. Extensive documentation can be found here:
https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2InstalledApp
An example for the InstalledFlow with the Drive API is here:

This means that in theory other providers besides Google could be used.

I am not sure what the advised style is, but what I am usually doing is this:
io::stdin().read_line(&mut code).ok().

Thank you so much for these flows ! They have been on my 'want-to-have' list for a long time now !
If it wasn't for the single TODO, I would happily merge it.
Also I would be interested in learning how you manage to compile it, as I am having trouble with it (see #19 for more).
