Hello, Oltu came to my attention this morning and I’ve just had the chance to read through the documentation.
I’m on the PPMC of Podling Streams - http://streams.incubator.apache.org . Your project is interesting to me and I just wanted to say hello and start a dialog. Apache Streams (incubating) unifies a diverse world of digital profiles and online activities into common formats and vocabularies, and makes these datasets accessible across a variety of databases, devices, and platforms for streaming, browsing, search, sharing, and analytics use-cases. To date each of our streams provider modules - currently including twitter, facebook, instagram, google plus, youtube, and more - have separately relied on third-party libraries such as twitter4j, instagram4j, etc… to establish authenticated connections and retrieve data programmatically from these sources. I’m interested in trying out a new approach, where the code to authenticate and connect up to these services via rest API is primarily (perhaps entirely) Apache Foundation code. If we go this route, Oltu could be an important supporting component for oauth. Is anyone interested here in doing a proof-of-concept switching a Streams module to use oltu oauth2, and/or discuss adding all Streams-supported services to Oltu, and vice-versa? Best, Steve sblack...@apache.org
