You can specify as many redirect address as you want.

Using the module
----------------

[](#using-the-module)

This module is based on [Oauth2 Server from the PHP League](https://oauth2.thephpleague.com/)and supports the following grants:

- Authorization code grant
- Client credentials grant
- Refresh grant

### Create the oauth2 keys:

[](#create-the-oauth2-keys)

The oauth2 library used generates Json Web Tokens to create the Access Tokens, so you need to create a public and private cert keys:

To generate the private key run this command on the terminal:

```
openssl genrsa -out cert/oauth2_module.pem 1024

```

If you want to provide a passphrase for your private key run this command instead:

```
openssl genrsa -passout pass:_passphrase_ -out cert/oauth2_module.pem 1024

```

then extract the public key from the private key:

```
openssl rsa -in cert/oauth2_module.pem -pubout -out cert/oauth2_module.crt

```

or use your passphrase if provided on private key generation:

```
openssl rsa -in cert/oauth2_module.pem -passin pass:_passphrase_ -pubout -out cert/oauth2_module.crt

```

If you use a passphrase remember to configure it in the *module\_oauth2.php* config file.
