Add support for logging in from an iOS extension #383

A common requirement for an iOS Share extension is that the user needs to be logged in in order to share files. I would like to use Auth0 to log in from my Share extension but it is currently not supported.

I found the following two issues, there may also be others:

A0Alert uses UIAlertView. This is deprecated and is not supported for extensions.
A0ModalPresenter uses sharedApplication. This is not supported in extensions.

Hi, I had the same issue / problem. What I did was to integrate only 'Lock/Core' in my target extension (through cocoapods), and I built my own login UI. couldn't find any other way.

Thanks for the tip!

Lock v1 was not meant to be used from an extension, if you can try Auth0.swift for this and if its not possible please submit an issue and we'll fix it
