On: Show HN: BuzzFeed open source SSO

Looks super interesting. I'm looking to do something like this for my personal stuff, but I'd rather avoid the dependency on Google. Does anyone have suggestions for how to set something like that?

Right now we have a dependency on Google as an OAuth2 provider, as that's what we use internally at BuzzFeed. However we've designed sso to allow us to easily add other providers.

For example, there's this task ( https://github.com/buzzfeed/sso/issues/9 ) to create a default provider without Google dependencies for test purposes.

We'd also welcome PRs adding other providers and believe any OAuth2 provider should be straight forward to add.

Cool, thanks for letting me know. I'll have to research this more.

I have used https://github.com/bitly/oauth2_proxy with success, and it supports a variety of providers.
