# dash-auth-external
Integrate your dashboards with 3rd party APIs and external OAuth providers.
## Overview
Do you want to build a Plotly Dash app which pulls user data from external APIs such as Google, Spotify, Slack etc?
**Dash-auth-external** provides a simple interface to authenticate users through OAuth2 code flow. Allowing developers to serve user tailored content.
## Installation
**Dash-auth-external** is distributed via [PyPi](https://pypi.org/project/dash-auth-external/)
```
pip install dash-auth-external
```
## Usage
```python
#using spotify as an example
AUTH_URL = "https://accounts.spotify.com/authorize"
TOKEN_URL = "https://accounts.spotify.com/api/token"
CLIENT_ID = "YOUR_CLIENT_ID"
# creating the instance of our auth class
auth = DashAuthExternal(AUTH_URL, TOKEN_URL, CLIENT_ID)
```
We then pass the flask server from this object to dash on init.
```python
app = Dash(__name__, server= auth.server)
```
That's it! You can now define your layout and callbacks as usual.
> To obtain your access token, call the get_token method of your Auth object.
> **NOTE** This can **ONLY** be done in the context of a dash callback.
```python
...
app.layout = html.Div(
[
html.Div(id="example-output"),
dcc.Input(id="example-input")
])
@app.callback(
Output("example-output", "children"),
Input("example-input", "value")
)
def example_callback(value):
    token = auth.get_token()
     ##The token can only be retrieved in the context of a dash callback
    token_data = auth.get_token_data()
    # get_token_data can be used to access other data returned by the OAuth Provider
    print(token)
    print(token_data)
    return token
```
Results in something like:
```bash
>>> fakeToken123
>>> {
    "access_token" : "fakeToken123",
    "user_id" : "lucifer",
    "some_other_key" : 666,
    "expires_at" : "judgmentDay"
}
```
## Refresh Tokens
If your OAuth provider supports refresh tokens, these are automatically checked and handled in the _get_token_ method.
> Check if your OAuth provider requires any additional scopes to support refresh tokens
## Troubleshooting
If you hit 400 responses (bad request) from either endpoint, there are a number of things that might need configuration.
Make sure you have checked the following
- **Register your redirect URI** with OAuth provider!
_The library uses a default redirect URI of http://127.0.0.1:8050/redirect_.
