Making Connections with Spring Social
summary
Spring Social hides OAuth complexity and supplies ready API bindings for Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, plus community extensions (QuickBooks, GitHub, Salesforce). It supports OAuth 1.0/1.0a/2, handles authorization flows with a connect controller, and stores tokens in a JDBC connection repository (Android bindings use SQLite). Live demo shows the Spring Social Showcase successfully linking accounts; note Twitter 1.0 deprecation in March. Planned work includes simpler Java/XML configuration and automatic token refresh/renewal.
