PHP OAuth Framework

The goal of this project is to develop a standards compliant OAuth 2 authorization server and resource server.

Package Installation

The framework is provided as a Composer package which can be installed by adding the package to your composer.json file:

{
	"require": {
		"lncd/OAuth2": "*"
	}
}

The library features 100% unit test code coverage. To run the tests yourself run phpunit -c build/phpunit.xml.

Current Features

Authorization Server

The authorization server is a flexible class and following core specification grants are implemented:

A tutorial on how to use the authorization server can be found at http://alexbilbie.com/2013/02/developing-an-oauth2-authorization-server/.

An overview of the different OAuth 2.0 grants can be found at http://alexbilbie.com/2013/02/a-guide-to-oauth-2-grants/.

Resource Server

The resource server allows you to secure your API endpoints by checking for a valid OAuth access token in the request and ensuring the token has the correct permission to access resources.

A tutorial on how to use the resource server can be found at http://alexbilbie.com/2013/02/securing-your-api-with-oauth-2/.
