Thanks David for the extra doc.
I have had a try with OpenID. Everything works kind of expected.
I had a question about 302 redirection prior to authentication that I
posted on github.
Another question is how to link the concept of roles with the openid
credentials.
IMHO the doc is really lacking and I have to say I was expecting more
guidance in the code itself.
I guess a lot of stuff obvious to an experienced clojure developers are
still dark magic to me.
In particular it is rather difficult to understand how to write a
crendential-fn and this link won't help you ;-)
https://github.com/cemerick/friend/blob/master/docs/credentials.md
For OpenId I have blindly used the identity function without much
understanding ...
I am using Friend to scratch a little auth server. Not sure it is the best
fit for that purpose. I will see.
I hope Friend is going to be reviewed by an extended community of people
much more qualified than myself to talk about such matter.
Still docs could be improved and I believe helps could come from pull
requests to suggest the addition of code comments there and there.
If I dig far enough in the code, I would be pleased to help.
Thanks for the hard work.
Cheers,

These are great tutorials. Thanks for publishing.
Right now I'm looking for something similar using the OpenID workflow. I
see it's there but how I use to for example create a sign in with google
setup is less clear to me.
Has anyone got a good OpenID example out there somewhere?

Hi folks,
I've been pretty slack in communicating via the mailing list, but I
realized today that there is a lot of important dialogue going on here
so I have to make more of an effort to take part--I want to be a part of
this community!
In any case, I've been using Friend a lot lately, since I come from
Ruby-on-Rails-land, and it addresses a lot of the pain points that
Devise does for me.
But (as has been mentioned in other threads quite recently),
documentation is definitely the Clojure community's week point: it's
inconsistent, formatted inconsistently (Ring and Compojure, for example,
are wonderful exceptions), and updated erratically. When it's good,
it's great; but when it's not, it puts me off from using a library. For
example, I stayed away from Enlive for months before I realized what a
useful library it is--so I re-wrote the README to suit my tastes
(https://github.com/ddellacosta/enlive).
I think Chas Emerick writes much better docs than much of what
accompanies most Clojure libraries, but he's quite an advanced Clojure
developer, and he's moving very fast--so as a newbie, I had difficulty
even with his relatively good docs for Friend. And I suspect you'll be
getting more and more folks from the web development world in the next
few years like me. So it will be good to have things from the
perspective of someone not just trying to grok the libraries that exist,
but also trying to understand how Clojure works, and how the eco-system
fits together.
I've written some material on how to use Friend, including some OAuth2
resources. I'd appreciate any feedback you can give, I'm pretty new to
Clojure (and Lisp in general).
In any case:
https://github.com/ddellacosta/friend-interactive-form-tutorial
https://github.com/ddellacosta/friend-oauth2-examples
https://github.com/ddellacosta/friend-oauth2
I have a bunch of other Clojure-related stuff on my github account too,
feedback is most welcome!
Cheers,
DD
