Support for OAUth2 providers that have HTTP instead of JSON authentication responses #1

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
According to the OAUth2 speciification, the result of an authentication token 
should be a JSON body. There are however OAUth2 providers that provide an HTTP 
form response (access_token=token&token_type=). GitHub's API is one where I 
encountered this. I've heard that Facebook has the same problem.

The attached patch adds support for form field responses; It looks at the 
response headers to determine whether JSON or form fields should be used.
