# OmniAuth OAuth This gem contains a generic OAuth strategy for OmniAuth. It is meant to serve as a building block strategy for other strategies and not to be used independently (since it has no inherent way to gather uid and user info). ## Creating an OAuth Strategy To create an OmniAuth OAuth strategy using this gem, you can simply subclass it and add a few extra methods like so: ```ruby require 'json' require 'omniauth-oauth' module OmniAuth module Strategies class SomeSite < OmniAuth::Strategies::OAuth # Give your strategy a name. option :name, "some_site" # This is where you pass the options you would pass when # initializing your consumer from the OAuth gem. option :client_options, {:site => "https://api.somesite.com"} # These are called after authentication has succeeded. If # possible, you should try to set the UID without making # additional calls (if the user id is returned with the token # or as a URI parameter). This may not be possible with all # providers. uid{ request.params['user_id'] } info do { :name => raw_info['name'], :location => raw_info['city'] } end extra do { 'raw_info' => raw_info } end def raw_info @raw_info ||= JSON.load(access_token.get('/me.json')).body end end end end ```
