Let Developers Register for Your API with Their Github Profile
- bigfrakkinghero 14y agoThis looks fine if you're a single developer working on a (relatively) small project, but what happens when you grow to two developers? Or you hand off the project? At that point shouldn't the API registration be tied to the application and not the developer? That said, it's probably more important to lower the initial barrier for entry to drive adoption.
- speg 14y agoIs there anyway to tie it to the team instead of just the developer?
- mh- 14y agolooking at the (GitHub) API.. doesn't seem like it http://developer.github.com/v3/oauth/#scopes http://developer.github.com/v3/oauth/#scopes edit: hmm, now I'm not sure. looking at my employer's organization (that I have the 'owner' role on) I can certainly authorize apps via GitHub.com.
- jdludlow 14y agoHaving never used github for authorization, I clicked on the sign-up button that Singly provided. Among the bullet points that github issues, this one seemed a bit more than mildly concerning. * Update your public and private repositories (Commits, Issues, etc). There is a zero chance of me ever agreeing to that.
