Hey, another thing I'm tackling right now is user registration, not sure how to add data OAuth2 module while registering a user, could You write something about it?

Not sure whether I understood you correctly, but:

• to registrer new user you need to use api/models/User and just add new recorde to users table
• to login just registered user (and waited result of registration request should be oauth2 token) - I think the best variant is to redirect user with his email/username, passwords and client info (id and key) to login api point (/oauth2/token). Else:
  • you need prepare GET parameters with all this parameters (what sends to login api point for getting token)
  • create OAuth2/Request object by $request = \OAuth2\Request::createFromGlobals()
  • than, for creating token, $response = Yii::$app->getModule('oauth2')->getServer()->handleTokenRequest($request)
  • to get result data: $response->getParameters()

Not sure if this code will work (I haven't implemented this case yet) but in such way works filsh\yii2\oauth2server\controllers\DefaultController and it works!

What I mean is that while crating a new User model (table: user) right now I don't create any data for authorization - in table: oauth_users. So when I create a user I should also create one in oauth_users because that is the point that the authorization is made from. I'm not sure how to do that in a good way. I mean I could create new oauth_users in a crude way but that would kind kill the module encapsulation. Or is there a way to make the module authorize user data from User model?

In this repository I added one user admin@api.loc:123123123 only into users table (oauth_users is empty) and authorization (getting access token) works fine, because it (authorization) makes over User::findIdentityByAccessToken().

So, you enough to add user into users table
