dash-auth-external
Integrate your dashboards with 3rd parties and external OAuth providers.
Overview
Do you want to build a Plotly Dash app which pulls user data from Google, Spotify, Slack etc?
Dash-auth-external provides a simple interface to authenticate users through OAuth2 code flow. Allowing developers to serve user tailored content.
Installation
Dash-auth-external is distributed via PyPi
pip install dash-auth-external
Simple Usage
#using spotify as an example
AUTH_URL = "https://accounts.spotify.com/authorize"
TOKEN_URL = "https://accounts.spotify.com/api/token"
CLIENT_ID = "YOUR_CLIENT_ID"
# creating the instance of our auth class
auth = DashAuthExternal(AUTH_URL, TOKEN_URL, CLIENT_ID)
We then pass the flask server from this object to dash on init.
app = Dash(__name__, server= auth.server)
That’s it! You can now define your layout and callbacks as usual.
To obtain your access token, call the get_token method of your Auth object. NOTE This can ONLY be done in the context of a dash callback.
app.layout = html.Div(
[
html.Div(id="example-output"),
dcc.Input(id="example-input")
])
@app.callback(
Output("example-output", "children"),
Input("example-input", "value")
)
def example_callback(value):
token = (
auth.get_token()
) ##The token can only be retrieved in the context of a dash callback
return token
