I’m trying to move my web application to the Google Chrome store, and I want to charge for premium features. The problem is, to use the Chrome Web Store License API I need their Google OpenID identifier. I’ve read other similar questions, but none with code examples.

I found this example, but it seems to be for a different purpose.

So my question is, how do I use the Federated Login in a Sinatra / Rack environment to get that one parameter?

Thank you.

    You need to authenticate users with OpenID. The link has an example that shows how to use Rack::OpenID.

    With Google, instead of requesting the openid_identifier from the user you would need to hardcode https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id as identifier (instead of params["opened_identifier"]) then run normal OpenID.
