Authenticate with Google OAuth2 from Addon SDK. It's useful for developing Firefox addons with jpm and Google services.
Tutorial
Sample code:
var oauth=require("addon-google-oauth2");
var oauth2_options={
client_id: "CLIENT_ID",
client_secret: "CLIENT_SECRET",
scopes: "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adsense.readonly" // For example, AdSense Management API in read only mode
};
function callback(token){
//USE THE token TO CALL Google APIs
}
function start(){
oauth.refreshToken(oauth2_options,callback);
}It will use the refresh token if available or do a manual login.
If you are sure that the token hasn't exired yet you can call the function oauth.getToken(); which only returns the last valid token (if any).
In your data/ folder you must put two files for the Google OAuth2 code verification. These files work
login.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8"/>
<title>Google AdSense Earnings Login</title>
</head>
<body>
<label for="code">Code from Google:</label>
<input id="code" type="text">
<button id="submit">Login</button>
</body>
</html>login.js
var button=document.getElementById("submit");
button.addEventListener("click",function(){
self.postMessage(document.getElementById("code").value);
});
