OAuth 1.0 for HTTPX

HTTPX is a next-generation HTTP client for Python. Authlib enables OAuth 1.0 for HTTPX with:

Note

HTTPX is still in its “alpha” stage, use it with caution.

HTTPX OAuth 1.0

There are three steps in OAuth 1 to obtain an access token:

  1. fetch a temporary credential

  2. visit the authorization page

  3. exchange access token with the temporary credential

It shares a common API design with OAuth 2.0 for Requests.

Read the common guide of OAuth 1 Session to understand the whole OAuth 1.0 flow.

Async OAuth 1.0

The async version of AsyncOAuth1Client works the same as OAuth 1 Session, except that we need to add await when required:

# fetching request token
request_token = await client.fetch_request_token(request_token_url)

# fetching access token
access_token = await client.fetch_access_token(access_token_url)

# normal requests
await client.get(...)
await client.post(...)
await client.put(...)
await client.delete(...)
