Usage

Make sure you specify JCenter module repository in project level build.gradle.

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
}

Define compilation dependency in app level build.gradle.

compile 'com.andrewnitu:easygithuboauth:1.0.0'

Launch the GitHub authorization activity. clientId and secret can be obtained through GitHub developer settings.

GitHubAuthRunner gitHubAuthRunner = new GitHubAuthRunner(clientId, secret, context);
gitHubAuthRunner.start();

This will launch a WebView where the user can login and authorize your app.

Once the token is obtained it will be stored in shared preferences "github-token" with tag "token".

Recommend checking if token exists already, otherwise launch the login activity.

SharedPreferences sp = getSharedPreferences("github-token", MODE_PRIVATE);
if (!sp.contains("token")) {
    GitHubAuthRunner gitHubAuthRunner = new GitHubAuthRunner(BuildConfig.CLIENT_ID, BuildConfig.CLIENT_SECRET, this);
    gitHubAuthRunner.start();
}
else {
    Log.d("AndroidOAuth", "token already stored in sharedpreferences, auth dialog not shown");
}

See example app for more details.
