MediaWiki OAuth1 backend

Usage

In addition to the general setup you need to define the following settings:

SOCIAL_AUTH_MEDIAWIKI_KEY = <consumer_key>
SOCIAL_AUTH_MEDIAWIKI_SECRET = <consumer_secret>
SOCIAL_AUTH_MEDIAWIKI_URL = 'https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php'

In the OAuth consumer registration you can choose the option to:

Allow consumer to specify a callback in requests and use “callback” URL above as a required prefix

This is preferable. If your URL is https://myurl.org/ use the following option:

SOCIAL_AUTH_MEDIAWIKI_CALLBACK = \
    'https://myurl.org/oauth/complete/mediawiki'

But it is also possible to use:

SOCIAL_AUTH_MEDIAWIKI_CALLBACK = 'oob'
