OAuth: Specify a special redirect_uri for manual token copy&paste

Open palant opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

My application can be downloaded and run from the file system as a regular website. In this scenario, it doesn't have a redirect_uri which could be used for OAuth - there is no trusted domain here. With Dropbox and Google Drive a special redirect URI (https://www.dropbox.com/1/oauth2/display_token and urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob respectively) can be used which will simply show the token and allow the user to paste it into the app. With remoteStorage, no such possibility exists. Could it be added?
