Django facebook, twitter and google + authentication

Question

I need to get facebook, google+ and twitter authentication for my django app. What module should I use? I am using Django 1.8 and I've checked a couple of them but which one is the best? Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I suggest you to use django-oneall: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-oneall/1.0.2 — mertyildiran, Oct 09 '15 at 20:00
Check out http://django-allauth.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html Very extensive — Newtt, Oct 09 '15 at 20:41

This is an approximation using the Django rest framework https://github.com/PhilipGarnero/django-rest-framework-social-oauth2. You should be familiarized with OAuth2 protocol (basically you use someone else's security to authenticate an user in you app). Also there is this library https://github.com/requests/requests-oauthlib, look at the documentation, it's pretty well explained and has examples with Tumblr, Facebook,etc. The lastone works with Python in general, no Django needed (just in case).

Go for python-social-auth. It is good and well documented. You can start from here for introduction.
