Xero Ruby Oauth 2 Demo Rails Application

This rails application demonstates how omniauth-xero-oauth2 gem can be used to interface with Xero OAuth2 API.

A quick demo of the app:

Ruby & Rails version

ruby 2.6.0p0 (2018-12-25 revision 66547) [x86_64-darwin18]
Rails 5.2.3

Configuration

Create a .env in the root of your project directory or replace the env.sample

CLIENT_ID=...
CLIENT_SECRET=...
SCOPES=...

Notice that there is no redirect_uri specified here. By default omniauth uses /auth/xero_oauth2/callback.

You can use your own callback url by adding redirect_uri: 'https://your.apps/callback/url' to provider() function's input.

Update local omniauth dependency in Gemfile:

gem 'omniauth-xero-oauth2', :path => '../omniauth-xero-oauth2' # as a local gem

Run follow commands to start up the application:

$ bundle install 
$ rake db:migrate
$ rails start

Database creation

Uses sqlite3. This is defaulted by rails application.
