Description-en: OAuth 2.0 client library - Python 2.7
The oauth2client is a client library for OAuth 2.0.
.
OAuth is an open standard for authorization. OAuth provides a method for
clients to access server resources on behalf of a resource owner (such as a
different client or an end-user). It also provides a process for end-users to
authorize third-party access to their server resources without sharing their
credentials (typically, a username and password pair), using user-agent
redirections.
.
OAuth is a service that is complementary to, and therefore distinct from,
OpenID. OAuth is also distinct from OATH, which is a reference architecture
for authentication (i.e. not a standard).
.
This package provides the Python 2.7 module.
