README
oauth2-server
Complete, compliant and well tested module for implementing an OAuth2 server in Node.js.
Note: After a period of hiatus, this project is now back under active maintenance. Dependencies have been updated and bug fixes will land in v3 (current master). v4 will be mostly backwards compatible with no code changes required for users using a supported node release. More details in #621.
Installation
npm install oauth2-server
The oauth2-server module is framework-agnostic but there are several officially supported wrappers available for popular HTTP server frameworks such as Express and Koa. If you're using one of those frameworks it is strongly recommended to use the respective wrapper module instead of rolling your own.
