Hi. Thanks for the plugin. I'm planning to start testing it from Januray. My intention is to use it for remote sign-in/registration from a desktop app through an API running on phalcon.

Do you you have any suggestions for this?

Hi WooDzu. I honestly have no clue. What i know, is that depending on your programming language, Facebook, Google or other providers should have some example for integrating this. Eg: Login with Facebook from an android application: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/android/login-with-facebook/ . After that, you should use the data provided by the application, and send it to your API. (This should be a normal workflow)

The other way, would be (i think) to move all the response / request into a WebView (browser window) within your application. Because the user must accept your app in order to authenticate it.

Anyway, this are just my thoughts. Maybe someone around here have more knowledge in that direction.

Many thanks for your answer. We do consider both approaches, it will be interested to see how it evolves.

On a side note it might be worthwhile to mention on plugin's landing page which versions of each API it supports.
