Spring Security Module for PayPal as an Identity Provider

[~G3]

I've created a Spring Security extension that allows for using PayPal as a remote identity authentication source. I modeled it off of the CAS extension. I'd be happy to contribute the code to the project if there is any interest. Please let me know.

For those who don't know, PayPal offers an Identity Provider service. It is not standards based and therefor one must customize Spring Security in order to use the IP service. That said, PayPal has recently launched a standards based (OAuth) service called PayPal Access. I'd be happy to write an extension module for this as well if needed, or just a sample app if the existing OAuth extension suffices.

Thanks,
Dan

Hi ~G3!

How did you get it?

Could you show me how to integrate Paypal Access and Spring Security!?

Thanks!

Dan,

Sorry I had not noticed this post earlier. This would be interesting to get as a Spring Security extension (similar to SAML and the Kerberos extensions). Can you put together a github project that has the extension and has a web application that demonstrates it?
