Purpose

Package provides simplified OAuth 2.0 key exchange for Clickup API v2. Please note that Clickup's access keys do not expire, and there is no refresh token implementation.

Attribution

Authentication and Go server/client code largely based on Laura Vuorenoja's kaneli application, and corresponding tutorial on dev.to

Setup to run from code

1. Install golang
2. Import package into your Go project:

   import (
       "fmt"
       "os"
   
       "github.com/fantasticrabbit/goauth_clickup"
   )
   

3. Create new application in Clickup > Settings > Integrations > Clickup API. Define the redirect URL, i.e. http://localhost:4321 for example below.
4. Set the client id and secret from the Clickup API App UI as env variables and define in your Go project:

var (
	clientID     = os.Getenv("CLICKUP_CLIENT_ID")
	clientSecret = os.Getenv("CLICKUP_CLIENT_SECRET")
	redirectURL  = "https://localhost:4321"
)
