## Overview


OAuthRxSwift is a lightweight OAuth client library for Swift, designed to simplify the process of integrating OAuth authentication flows into iOS applications. It provides a simple yet powerful API that allows developers to authenticate users with popular OAuth providers, such as Facebook, Google, and Twitter.


## Features


– Easy integration with OAuth providers
– Simple and intuitive API
– Support for multiple OAuth authentication flows
– Well-documented codebase
– Lightweight and minimal dependencies
– Comprehensive test coverage


## Installation


#### Option 1: CocoaPods


To install OAuthRxSwift using CocoaPods, simply add the following line to your Podfile:


“`html

“`swift
pod ‘OAuthRxSwift’, ‘~> 1.0’
“`


Then, run the `pod install` command in your terminal to install the library.


#### Option 2: Manual Installation


Alternatively, you can manually install OAuthRxSwift into your project by following these steps:

1. Download the OAuthRxSwift source files.
2. Drag and drop the `OAuthRxSwift` folder into your Xcode project.
3. Check the “Copy items if needed” checkbox.
4. Ensure that OAuthRxSwift is added to your project’s target.


## Getting Started


Before using OAuthRxSwift, you need to register your application with the OAuth provider you wish to authenticate users with. Follow the provider’s documentation to obtain the necessary credentials (client ID, client secret, etc.).


#### Step 1: Configure OAuthProvider


First, you need to configure the OAuth provider. You can achieve this by creating an instance of the `OAuthProvider` class and providing the necessary credentials:


“`html

“`swift
let provider = OAuthRxSwift.OAuthProvider(
providerType: .yourProviderType,
clientId: “yourClientId”,
clientSecret: “yourClientSecret”,
redirectURL: “yourRedirectURL”
)
“`


Replace `yourProviderType`, `yourClientId`, `yourClientSecret`, and `yourRedirectURL` with the appropriate values.


#### Step 2: Authenticate User


To authenticate a user with the configured OAuth provider, call the `authenticate` function on the `OAuthProvider` instance. This function returns an `Observable` that emits the authentication result:


“`html

“`swift
provider.authenticate(viewController: self)
.subscribe(onNext: { result in
switch result {
case .success(let token):
// User authenticated successfully. Use the obtained token.
case .failure(let error):
// Authentication failed. Handle the error.
}
})
.disposed(by: disposeBag)
“`


## Example Usage


Here’s an example of how to authenticate a user with Google using OAuthRxSwift:


“`html

“`swift
let provider = OAuthRxSwift.OAuthProvider(
providerType: .google,
clientId: “yourGoogleClientId”,
clientSecret: “yourGoogleClientSecret”,
redirectURL: “yourGoogleRedirectURL”
)

provider.authenticate(viewController: self)
.subscribe(onNext: { result in
switch result {
case .success(let token):
// User authenticated successfully. Use the obtained token.
case .failure(let error):
// Authentication failed. Handle the error.
}
})
.disposed(by: disposeBag)
“`
