Opauth: Multi-provider authentication framework for PHP, inspired by OmniAuth

Just released v0.1.0 today. https://github.com/uzyn/opauth

If you are familiar with OmniAuth for Ruby, Opauth basically does the same thing, except for PHP.

Gave a talk on it today at Singapore PHP User Group. My deck: https://speakerdeck.com/u/uzyn/p/opauth-an-introduction

Opauth is still very new and I still need to work on the documentations a lot, especially tutorials and the wiki.

Standardize interface for all OAuth providers. Extensible.

Nice, is there a Wordpress plugin in the works? I'm sure that a lot of people would be interested in this.

Not really just OAuth but it should work with even proprietary authentication providers as long as there is a compatible Opauth strategy for it.

That's definitely one of the top frameworks/CMS to support. I'll get on with it if no one has started when I'm done with CakePHP-Opauth and Opauth's documentations.

No prob :) And good job, this looks really useful!

A few months back I had to integrate the usual auth providers and was it ever a hunt to find the best scripts for it. I ended up with tmhOAuth for Twitter, LightOpenID for OpenID and Google, and handling Facebook somewhat manually. Will be seriously looking at this as a replacement, and for my next project too.
