I can't get one provider to work locally

Olivier,

I just added some comments on the Play! mailing list. Not all providers can work locally. Twitter should. This is a restriction imposed by the 3rd party service, not SecureSocial.

Everybody is welcome do contribute to the documentation (and the code of course!). Not sure the Wiki is the best, you can clone the repository add changes to the documentation and send me a pull request. I think this is better because a copy of the documentation is stored locally when you install the module in your computer.

Thank you.

For the docs, most of the steps can be copies from the socialauth documents. there should be the same steps.

Regarding the documentation, I personally find it easier to work with an online wiki rather than having to clone a repo: It helps contributions. Look at the Play2 documentation, it's now wiki based (.. and included as a git submodule).

Also, markdown is much easier than textile. but that's a personal opinion and being an module author myself - I know why you went textile.

One solution to make Google and other providers work locally on your dev environment is to (temporary) update your .hosts config file : put an alias yourregistereddomain.com -> localhost, and access your application through this domain.

That will not work since Google needs to verify your domain first and for that it has to be accesible on the Internet.

This is working since the initial release so I'm closing this issue.
