oAuth2 deviantART Commandline idea

gistfile1.txt

First you give the user the auth url (could open it automatically using open, start or browser) eg:

Client_id = your client id.
https://www.deviantart.com/oauth2/draft15/authorize?client_id=**&redirect_uri=http://aaronpearce.com&response_type=code

This will ask to auth (they will need to be logged in to the correct account) then it will redirect to that site.

That code is used to grab your access token. A specialized site will be put up to allow users to read this easier. (dA might put one up, I asked)

Then you will curl to the token is this:

curl https://www.deviantart.com/oauth2/draft15/token -d "client_id=**&redirect_uri=http://aaronpearce.com&grant_type=authorization_code&client_secret=**&code=**"

Where client_secret is your client secret key and client_id is your client id. Code is the code entered by the user into the app from the browser.

Then this will return JSON with the access_token.
