It lets you build Flask applications that act as OAuth clients (authenticating users via external OAuth providers like Google or GitHub) and as OAuth providers (issuing tokens to third-party applications). The package supports OAuth 1.0a/1.0/1.1 on the client side and both OAuth 1.0 (with HMAC and RSA signatures) and OAuth 2.0 (with Bearer tokens) on the provider side.\n\nThe extension integrates directly with Flask's request/response model and provides a friendly API similar to the older Flask-OAuth. It depends on Flask, oauthlib, requests-oauthlib, and cachelib. However, the package is dormant\u2014its last release was 2020-09-07, and the author explicitly recommends using authlib instead for new projects. This makes it suitable mainly for maintaining existing applications rather than starting new OAuth integrations.","worth_installing":"No for new projects\u2014the author recommends authlib instead. Yes-with-conditions for maintaining existing Flask-OAuthlib applications: the package is dormant (last release 2020-09-07), has no known vulnerabilities, and installs easily, but you should plan a migration path to authlib or another actively maintained OAuth library.
