Strategy for authenticating using GitHub

This strategy builds on-top of AshAuthentication.Strategy.OAuth2 and assent.

In order to use GitHub you need to provide the following minimum configuration:

  • client_id
  • redirect_uri
  • client_secret

More documentation:

authentication.strategies.github 

github name \\ :github

Provides a pre-configured authentication strategy for GitHub.

This strategy is built using the :oauth2 strategy, and thus provides all the same configuration options should you need them.
