What's inside Arctic

  1. Migrate from Arctic due to deprecation

    main
    Arctic was deprecated in July 2026. To replace the package, refer to the example code provided in the /code directory of the repository. These examples include comments explaining how to implement the logic using modern alternatives.
  2. Prepare OAuth credentials for authentication implementation

    main

    Before implementing OAuth flows (whether using Arctic or its replacements), ensure you have the following information from your OAuth provider:

    1. OAuth Client ID: The unique identifier for your application.
    2. OAuth Client Secret: Required if your client is considered 'confidential' (note this down securely).
    3. Authorization URL: The endpoint where users are redirected to grant permission.
    4. Token Endpoint: The endpoint used to exchange authorization codes for access tokens.
    5. PKCE Support: Verify if the authorization server supports Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE). It is highly recommended to use PKCE if supported.
