Comment on How Shopify implemented its secure authentication serviceparent

Comments

Hey, I worked on this project for ~2 years, though I'm no longer with Shopify.

We started with Doorkeeper and gradually switched to building our own OAuth2/OIDC implementation over time, partially using glued together lower-level libraries like https://github.com/nov/openid_connect

Edit: I forgot, I even have a few small commits to that last project from my time at Shopify: https://github.com/nov/openid_connect/commits?author=meagar

So, did you have issues with doorkeeper that forced you to switch? Or was it just not fit for the problem you were trying to solve?

I've used it a bit in the past and it worked fine, but I didn't really push it.
