Demo OAuth Client for Freelancer.com API

The Identity Demo Application is a demonstration web application writting in Python. It authenticates against Freelancer.com Sandbox OAuth provider to allow a user to post projects via the Freelancer.com API sandbox.

See https://developers.freelancer.com/ to learn more.

Getting Started

Create a virtualenv for your application

$ virtualenv freelancer-oauth-demo-app
source freelancer-oauth-demo-app/bin/activate

Get the code

$ git clone https://github.com/freelancer/freelancer-oauth-demo-app.git
$ pip install -e .

Setting up your client

In order to run your server, you need to register a client application with accounts.freelancer-sandbox.com.

For the purposes of testing, this code runs a server on localhost, and therefore uses a redirect_uri of http://127.0.0.1:8080/authorized. If you want to use this behaviour, you must register your client application with this redirect_uri. If you use another redirect_uri when registering your application, ensure that the variable 'client_redirect' in client.py is set to your redirect_uri. Also set the variable client_name to the name you choose for your application.

Once you have registered the application, you will be given a client_id and a client_secret. Set the variables of the same name defined in client.py to be these two values.

Running the server

$ cd freelancer_oauth_demo_app
$ python client.py
 * Running on http://0.0.0.0:8080/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)
 * Restarting with stat
 * Debugger is active!
 * Debugger pin code: 184-916-923

Congratulations, you now have an OAuth client application running on your machine!

Navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8080/ to view your OAuth client application.
