What's the best solution for OpenID with Django? [closed]

Answer 1

django-socialauth is good for me

Answer 2

The one that has proven to work best for me, and which seems most up-to-date is the one over at launchpad.

It integrated seamlessly with my application that already utilizes the django.auth module.

https://launchpad.net/django-openid-auth

To get a copy run:

bzr branch lp:django-openid-auth

Or install it via PyPI

pip install django-openid-auth

Answer 3

I prefer django-authopenid, but I think most of the mature solutions are pretty equal at this point. Still, it is what I see used the most. I've made a handful of customizations to how we use it without having to actually fork it, and that's a huge plus in my book. In other words, its fairly hookable.

Answer 4

You could try pinax

Answer 5

The last post for this thread is in February. It's been almost 8 months and I'm pretty sure a lot of things have been changed.

I am very interested in Django-Socialauth since it supports gmail, yahoo, facebook, twitter, and OpenID.

I found two forks that seem up-to-date:

https://github.com/uswaretech/Django-Socialauth

https://github.com/agiliq/Django-Socialauth

The second fork has been recently updated at this moment.

I was wondering if anyone has recently used any of these forks? I am looking for the most reliable one for my website.

Thanks

Update: The most up-to-date fork appears to be omab/django-social-auth, which is also what the pypi package points at.

Answer 6

Don't forget Elf Sternberg's fork of django-socialauth - he's working to clean up what he sees as a lot of bad implementation decisions in the original socialauth app. Looks clean so far but it's unclear whether his project will have momentum.
