GitHub OAuth Busy Developer's Guide

This is a quick guide to OAuth2 support in GitHub for developers. This is still experimental and could change at any moment. This Gist will serve as a living document until it becomes finalized at Develop.GitHub.com.

OAuth2 is a protocol that lets external apps request authorization to private details in your GitHub account without getting your password. All developers need to register their application before getting started.

Web Application Flow

Redirect to this link to request GitHub access:

	(function(){
	// Input field given to n decimal places. Degrades gracefully to standard numeric input.
	// Usage: <input type="number" is="decimal-number" data-places="2" name="..." value="...">
	try {
	var proto = Object.create(HTMLInputElement.prototype);
	proto.createdCallback = function() {
	this.type = "number";
	this.addEventListener("change", this.decimate);
	this.value = parseFloat(this.value).toFixed(this.getAttribute('data-places'));
	};

	# More robust version to update new or existing counter cache columns in your Rails app.
	# See: https://gist.github.com/svyatov/4225663
	desc 'Update all cache counters'
	task :update_cache_counters => :environment do
	models_to_update = {}

	# or: Rails.application.eager_load!
	# Dir loads less, so it's faster
	Dir.glob(Rails.root.join('app/models/*/')).each { \|model\| require model if File.file?(model) }

	#Model

	@user.should have(1).error_on(:username) # Checks whether there is an error in username
	@user.errors[:username].should include("can't be blank") # check for the error message

	#Rendering
	response.should render_template(:index)

	#Redirecting
	response.should redirect_to(movies_path)
