# Katabasis - MS-flavoerd OAuth for Qt, derived from the O2 library
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This library's sole purpose is to make interacting with MSA and various MSA and XBox authenticated services less painful.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It may be possible to backport some of the changes to O2 in the future, but for the sake of going fast, all compatibility concerns have been ignored.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[You can find the original library's git repository here.](https://github.com/pipacs/o2)

|
## Installation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Clone the Github repository, integrate the it into your CMake build system.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The library is static only, dynamic linking and system-wide installation are out of scope and undesirable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At this stage, don't, unless you want to help with the library itself.

|
|
||
|
|
This is an experimental fork of the O2 library and is undergoing a big design/architecture shift in order to support different features:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Multiple accounts
|
||
|
|
* Multi-stage authentication/authorization schemes
|
||
|
|
* Tighter control over token chains and their storage
|
||
|
|
* Talking to complex APIs and individually authorized microservices
|
||
|
|
* Token lifetime management, 'offline mode' and resilience in face of network failures
|
||
|
|
* Token and claims/entitlements validation
|
||
|
|
* Caching of some API results
|
||
|
|
* XBox magic
|
||
|
|
* Mojang magic
|
||
|
|
* Generally, magic that you would spend weeks on researching while getting confused by contradictory/incomplete documentation (if any is available)
