External OAuth authentication (OpenStreetMap) #89

Closed don-vip closed 5 years ago

don-vip commented 5 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It is not currently possible to login to a NextCloud instance using an OpenStreetMap (OSM) account. NextCloud server supports OAuth 1.0 but it seems limited to the External Storage feature (Dropbox, Google Drive...).

Describe the solution you'd like Support OAuth 1.0 as a possible external authentication mechanism, with a predefined entry to login with an OSM account.

Additional context OSM documentation: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OAuth

I'm not sure if I completely get your point... This is the user_external app allowing you to authenticate against said protocols in a very basic, rudimentary way... for OAuth you're most probably better of with https://github.com/zorn-v/nextcloud-social-login might this work for your use case?

Hello, I'm new to NextCloud, so I probably chose the wrong repository. It seems a lot easier to create a new OAuth provider there, thanks a lot for the link!

no problem, you're welcome :) yeah I guess that's the right app for your use case...
