Authenticating Github in backend instead of redirecting to Github login page #15

I am using this project for doing Github Authentication through my own server. I have integrated the Netflify-CMS to my React-App. Once auser is logged into the React-App, he/she needs to do a separate login into Github Account again to access Netlify-CMS. I am looking for solution that moves the Github login process to backend API/ netlify-cms-github-oauth-provider code where we can store username/password of github account and there itself we perform the login and upon success, it redirects to Netlify-CMS UI directly.

This what happens currently

  1. When user login in the react app and move to Netlify-CMS option, below screen appears that prompts the user to login with github again. image

  2. After clicking on "login with Github" , it redirects to github login page with the help of netlify-cms-github-oauth-provider project running on Ec2 server image

  3. After successful login , I can see the netflify-CMS UI image

I am looking to move the 2nd step in background ,so that users of my app doesn't need to login into github separately. Is this possible with "netlify-cms-github-oauth-provider" project ??

Sorry, I don't understand your scenario. Please refer to OAuth2 scenario, this project just implement it.
